Mr. Errol Hughes

Mr Thiessen was very professional, forthcoming and knowledgable. He handled my case and kept me informed. Very accessable which is very rare with most attorneys & answers his phone everytime. I would recommend him to anyone in his area of expertise. Very pleased with he & his staff.

Long Shot!

If it wasn't for Mark I would still be in the slammer today and probably another 2 years. I have never been against so many odds yet still slept well at night because I knew that Mark had my back. He has gotten me off twice and gotten my 10 referrals (friends) off also. That is a 1000% batting averag...e. If you need someone to step up to the plate for you and defend you like he is defending himself, Mark will hit that homerun everytime.

Thiessen's commitment and knowledge got a dismissal before trial

Unlike so many of the other lawyers I met with who seemed to only say what I wanted to hear, Mark told me, "I can't promise you an outcome. What I can promise you is my experience and how hard I'll work for you." True to his word, Mark worked tirelessly on my case, which I knew to be one of his easie...st cases at the time. Even considering it was an easy case, Mark never slowed down and never backed off. He came at my case with the tenacity of a prizefighter, and (judging from the other stories) I'm not the only one. He always took the time to explain everything that was happening to someone like me, who is a complete stranger to the legal system. Bottom line: if you are unfortunate enough to be going through a DUI/DWI case, you need this man on your team. Mark, all I can say is, "thank you, thank you, thank you." You were not only knowledgeable and tenacious, but you were also personable at a time that wasn't the easiest.

2nd DUI but no problem for Mark Thiessen

I had been charged with a DUI when I was in college almost 13 years ago so you can understand why I was a nervous wreck when I was arrested for my second one. The arrest wasn't the worst part either! I had had an accident that evening and damaged some property as well. I knew I was in trouble and I n...eeded an attorney. I knew of Mark's reputation of being one the best up and coming DUI lawyers in Houston but I still thought I didn't have a chance in hell. I was wrong as 5 months later, I received a " Not Guilty" verdict and it was like it never happened. Mark's words from the very beginning were" You paid me so let me do what I do best"... and that is kick butt in the courtroom. Mark is not only extremely knowledgeable when it comes to the DUI law but he is a natural in the courtroom. You can't help but like him whether you are a judge, jury member or even a district attorney. I had never been to trial before and I felt extremely confident with him on my side. I was recommended to him by a friend and I would definitely recommend him to any friend, a family member or even a complete stranger because he is that good.
