Intelligent, Hard-Working, & Tough - Houston's Best Lawyer

After being charged with a DWI in Texas I was convinced that my life as I knew it was over. After one meeting with Mark Thiessen I was confident that I would be able to get this blemish off of my record and continue down the path that I had envisioned for myself. I met Mark shortly after my arres...t and he did an unbelievable job of collecting information and explaining the processes and options that were available to me. Any time I needed to reach him, I could expect a reply immediately via phone or email. He and his associates kept me updated on every detail of the case, and made me feel I had a great chance to get the charge dropped. Mark even covered for me when I was unable to make a court date due to being stranded in a Wyoming airport., helping me avoid another difficult legal situation. When my trial date came, I ended up getting my charges reduced to obstuction of highway, which is worlds better than a DWI conviction that would follow me for the rest of my life. This positive outcome was directly attributed to Mark and his talented team. I couldn't recommend Mark highly enough. He gave me hope in a dark time, and delivered on his word. If you are in a legal bind, and need a tough, thorough, intelligent lawyer to help you out of a jam, look no further.

Great Lawyer

All i have to say is that he got my DWI dismissed and I'm so grateful for that! He responded back on a timely manner and always keep me informed. He never sugar-coated any of the possible outcomes and truly fought for me. He is one of those lawyers that has a deep passion for his profession and it sh...ows, not only because he was willing to go all the way to trial when probably other lawyers would had advise me to take the probation but because he truly wanted the best for me. Being arrested for DWI is a life changing experience and having the right lawyer could be the difference between dealing with it for the rest of your life or getting a 2nd chance and moving on with your life with a clean record.

Highly Recommended

Mark Theissen handled my 3rd DWI cvase with efficiency and professionalism. Mark got my charges reduced to a misdemeanor from a felony and really came through for me. I own and operate a bar and cant have a felony charge while holding a TABC license. Mark took this very seriously and worked hard on t...his case to get it reduced to what I needed. I would highly recommend Mark Theissen, he literally saved my livlihood. I cant thank him enough.

The BEST!

I have nothing but great praise for this gentlemen. He is excellent in all aspects! When is the last time you had your attorney's cell number?? You can always contact him. He stays in touch and keeps you up to date.

It pays to have a top notch attorney!

In 2012, I was charged with DUI. The arrest did not involve any material evidence of unsafe driving nor did it involve an accident. Unfortunately, the breathalyzer indicated a .09 alcohol content. I hired a reputable Houston attorney, but he gave me little hope of winning the case. After more than s...ix months of resets and reminders that it was going to be a tough case to win, I did some research and hired Mark Thiessen. Because of Mark's expertise, diligence and attention to detail, the case was ultimately dismissed due to lack of evidence.
