I highly recommend this lawyer !!!

I got my first DWI in November. I was scared out of my mind. Once I talked to Mr. Thiessen i felt at ease. He makes you feel secure by giving you his cell phone number and by answering your calls, even if they're not during business hours. He is very charming and lights up the court room the minute h...e walks in! Seriously, the D.A. and the judge were both smiling and carrying casual conversation with him about his vacations, wife, etc. He has great relationships in every corner of the court room. Trust me, this is the guy you want ! By the way, my case was DISMISSED !! =) =)=)

THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!!! No more bologna sandwiches and oatmeal cookies!!!

So this was my second dwi, drunk as a skunk. When pulled over finally after 2miles(lol) 3 sheriffs and a state trooper were there to say hello. Fell asleep several times on cops camera, failed sobriety test on camera. When I found out I was facing 2yrs, worried. When I would see Mark Thiessen walk i...nto court room and put his charm to work, priceless. My case dismissed. Get to spend time with family and eating great instead of bologna sandwiches and inmates. THANK YOU Mark Thiessen!! Under this says how long did I use, yes only 1-6months. Though his # is saved in my phone. This is defense a it's best and I would want no one else to represent me. I will continue to take my business to him. When you are sober and see yourself on video it is hilarious!!! lol

CONSUMATE PROFESSIONAL

I was referred to Mark by a mutual friiend- Mark met with me, heard my side of the situation and took my case-- He manuvered through the legal machine in Harris county and kept me informed through it all- Mark often took my calls after regular business hours-and was always attentitive and showed gen...uine concern for me !!-- Mark never steered me wrong and was always truthful about the situation--he never made false promises or claims-- Mark is by far the best attorney I have ever used !

Mark saved my future!!

I was referred to Mark by a friend who Mark had also taken great care of. I spoke with 4 different lawyers and not only did Mark have the most resonable price, best referrals; but he also put my mind at ease from the beginning. Great guy! I felt like I could tell him the truth which in embarrassing s...ituations like a DWI/DUI, I feel like trust in your lawyer is crucial!! A DWI/DUI case can drag and be very stressful and Mark continuously promised me good results and came through. Not only did I learn a life long lesson from this but I know who to refer if anyone I know EVER has to deal with what I went through. I felt like a priority to him and I could never thank him enough for saving my future!

Master of the trial

In the process of interviewing top Houston lawyers to handle my second DWI charge, I came across Mark. During our initial consultation, his attention to detail and honest interest in my case, made me confident to choose him as my attorney. It was the most important decision in my life as I was fac...ing mandatory jail time and deportation if found guilty. Once Mark took upon my case he was able to see all inconsistencies and errors in the evidence brought against me by the prosecution. Not only that, but he worked very hard in gathering the important information for my case by visiting the site of the incident and interviewing all the people involved in the case. This prepared me with enough confidence to go to trial. From the opening statement, he strategically prepared the jury to pin point the lack of evidence and holes in the State case against me. His charisma, professionalism, audacity, eloquence and excellent presentation skills during trial guided the jury to follow the law and come with a “no guilty” verdict. I will never forget my trail date; the day Mark allowed justice to prevail. If you are looking for an honest, knoweldable and aggressive lawyer to fight for your rights, Mark is definitely the person to accomplish the job.
