I was pulled over on my way home on January 23, 2011 for running a red light. I had a few drinks earlier that night which I admitted to. I was then arrested and charged with a DWI. At the station I was given a field sobriety test that was videotaped. Also I was given a breath test using the intoxilyz...er 5000. I blew a .169 and .172 (that’s over twice the legal limit). After plenty of research I found Mark Thiessen's name coming up more and more often. I went for a consultation and explained to him my story. I explained to Mr. Thiessen that my life and career depended solely on this judgment. After hearing that I was a disabled veteran, due to an injury that occurred while I was in Iraq, he stood up and shook my hand stating "You Fought For Me, Now Let Me Fight For You". Here it is December 6, 2011 and its my turn to write a review for Mr. Thiessen. I just finished my trial today. It was a long drawn out fight. The DA wouldn't throughout the case even though Mr.Thiessen showed them every hole in their case. The DA and the judge were completely against us, but Mark Thiessen only got more pissed off. Every witness that came to the stand was ripped apart by Mr. Thiessen. Not one moment went by that I saw him sweat. Then the moment came when he was about to tear their case apart. The DA ran to the judge with his tail between his legs and asked for a dismissal. They saw ahead of time Mr. Thiessen’s plan to shred their case and backed down. If it wasn’t for Mr.Thiessen's motivation and dedication to my case, I would have never won this case. He is not like normal lawyers. The first day he gave his cell number to call anytime, and while we were at the courthouse other lawyers wait in line to ask him a question in reference to their cases. Everywhere he went people (other lawyers) talk about him and how awesome he is in court. When leaving his office today I asked him if he remembered our first meeting (consultation) when I told him what kind of lawyer I’m looking for. I was looking for a lawyer that I needed to take to court with a chain and collar to hold him back from tearing the prosecutor apart. Now that I think about it, if I ever go to court with him again I’m bringing a bigger chain.

I got pulled over while leaving a bar on Washington Ave, by a DWI Task Force Cop that followed me 8 blocks from the bar until pulling me over. This was my first time ever getting into trouble and I had a clean record without even a speeding ticket. He never turned on his lights so the cameras never b...egan recording. He gave me the Sobriety Field Test and I refused to blow. He arrested me and no blood test was ever given nor did I blow. So, all the state had was my word against the cops and my "failed" sobriety test. I heard of Mark through a friend that stated many people had used him and won their case. I decided to hire him as my lawyer and I am very glad that I chose him. Mark fought long and hard to dismiss my case due to lack of evidence. The DA kept saying they would not dismiss. After getting admitted to the DIVERT program I still felt like I did nothing wrong and did not care to go thru basically a year of probation, so after careful thought and consideration and the faith in Mark's ability to win this case slam dunk I decided to take the case to trial. At noon the day before my trial was supposed to begin I got a call from Mark stating that the DA had decided to dismiss the case for lack of evidence. I totally believe it was Mark's persistance and great passion for what he does and also his strong commitment to his clients were the reasons that I got my case dismissed. He is a FANTASTIC lawyer and if I ever get into trouble again there is no doubt that I will use him again. I also will refer him to anybody that gets into trouble.

I was charged with a DWI and resisting arrest in December of 2010 at which time I knew I had to hire an attorney. After meeting with several attorneys, I hired Mark Thiessen. He seemed sharp and very knowledgeable. My funds were limited and he assured me that he would work with me financially. He kno...ws the law and the judicial system well. He went above and beyond to get my case resolved in a timely manner with an excellent outcome. Mark was a true professional throughout the process. I am very grateful for his dedication and patience throughout my case. I would highly recommend him should you find yourself in a similar situation. Thanks Mark!

July of 2011, After drinking at a bar in Washington avenue in Houston, I went to jail for drinking and driving. I called and talked to my friends about who I should hire as my attorney. Two of my friends referred me to Mark Thiessen. Then I did my research about Mark, and I read really good reviews a...bout him. At this point, I still wasn't sure.. and I was very nervous because I have never got involved in any incidents like this in the past. I went to his office, sat down and talked to him for about 30mins or so. After talking to him in his office, it made me feel much more relaxed and I decided to hire him to fight for me in my DWI case. Whatever you read on here, is very true!! I did my research for few days because I didn't know who I wanted to hire to fight for my case. I'm so glad that I have decided to hire Mark as my attorney. He knows pretty much everyone in the courtroom. He's very knowledgeable and he will inform you every details about what is going on through out your case. After 3months, here I am writing a review about Mark because I just walked out of courtroom about an hour ago and my case was DISMISSED! I'm 26 years old, and I really did not want this DWI on my record. It's the best feeling ever!! I would recommend Mark to anyone that I know. Let him fight for you. THANK YOU MARK!!

This was my first time getting arrested, I've been pulled over for speeding tickets and minor things like that but nothing as serious as this. As you can imagine I was scared out of my mind and a complete nervous wreck. First step was to hire a lawyer. I did my research and eventually narrowed do...wn my choices to 4 lawyers. Out of those 4, Mark was the only one that called me back within 24 hours of leaving a message. I did hear back from the other lawyers but none of them made me feel like I mattered. I wanted to make sure I hired the best and from the moment I spoke to Mark I knew it was him. He put me at ease and made me feel secure about my case. Next step was my ALR Hearing. I was 100% positive my license was going to be suspended due to my refusal of a breath test, so you can imagine the wonderful surprise and relief I felt when I was notified that Mark won my case. Finally there was my DWI case. From the very first court date I knew I made the right choice. Mark's presence in a court room is one of a kind, he is very confident, charming, professional and just owns the room as soon as he walks in. I was extremely satisfied with the outcome of my case. I have recommended Mark to all my friends and family. I hope they never need his services but if they do, I have no doubt he will take care of them. THANK YOU MARK!
