Great attorney
Mary Conn did a great job for me. She was compassionate and fair. She went the extra mile. She was humane in what was otherwise an inhumane situation.

Replied last May 30, 2015Thanks Daniel, You have labeled our system accurately: it is really inhumane; we treat our dogs better than we treat our accused. I am especially happy to have gotten the result we did. It was my pleasure to work with you. -Mary

Mary kept me out of prison
I was facing prison time and Mary was able to get me deferred adjudication. She was very extremely patient with me, carefully explaining the law regarding my case. She was always professional and I was not the most desirable client. If I am ever in need of a criminal defense lawyer again, there is...

"I endorse this lawyer."
"I endorse this lawyer. Mary is a great criminal defense lawyer, she is highly motivated and bold, she has the heart of a lion. She is one of the best."
"I endorse this lawyer. Mary is the lawyer you cannot go wrong with. She had boundless energy and is great in refining the language in motions. Her wide life experiences are a true asset in thinking outside the box."
"Mary is a great lawyer who always fights hard for her clients.She and I have known each other over 30 years and during that time I have observed her and seen her keen legal mind at work..Mary always gets good results for her clients..Mary is an honorable lawyer and a fine woman..."
"Mary Conn is a past president of the Harris County Criminal Lawyers Association. Mary stands up for her clients and justice. Others pretend to be criminal defense lawyers; Mary is a criminal defense lawyer to the core. No one is more dedicated to their clients and justice than Mary."
"Mary Conn has shown as a member of the California DUI Defenders Association that she is committed to providing cutting edge DUI defense. The Association members represent the most experienced DUI defense attorneys in California. If you are charged with a DUI, a general practice lawyer is not the answer. Good DUI defense is hard work and few offenses in our court system call for greater attorney expertise than cases involving driving under the influence of drugs and alcohol. DUI cases are especially complex because they require defense counsel to understand BOTH scientific and legal issues. I recently heard Ms. Conn speak at a convention, and she clearly demonstrated why she is so highly regarded in the DUI defense community. She is truly a "lawyers lawyer". As a fellow member of the Association, if you are looking for exceptional representation, I would not hesitate to recommend Mary Conn."
"An extremely dedicated and effective advocate."
"I endorse this lawyer's work and want you to consider her for any case you may have in the Santa Cruz and Santa Clara area of California - Mary Conn will give you the guidance you need whether you are a fellow attorney or a new client w/ a criminal or DUI matter."
