Review Rand Mintzer

Great lawyer, case dismissed, misdemeanor

Posted by

Anyone seeking an attorney Rand Mintzer is the man for the job. He is very professional with great work ethics, through out the process of it all he was prompt and always straight to the point. He worked my case and pushed for a dismissal in my defense, he delivered on everything he said he would do and my case was dismissed! I am great full for the outcome and I’m glad I can move on from my mistake, thank you for your time and for great service!

CASE DISMISSED!!! ALL SKILL AND EXPERIENCE!!!

Posted by

Rand was amazing from day one. My husband was picked up on drug possession and paraphernalia and he has a previous record, so of course we were extremely concerned. As one of the top lawyers in Houston we were expecting to pay top dollar for Rand's services, but thankfully he was very fair in price. We called him on a SUNDAY and he was the only attorney we called that day that actually answered the phone...AND...asked us to come in for a consult that same day! We went to his large beautiful office in the Heights where everyone was gone for the weekend except for Rand who was working hard for his clients. He was extremely personable, and non-judgemental. He took his time with us, listened to our situation, and carefully reviewed the information we had. From the very beginning Rand predicted that he would be able to get the case dismissed. We went to 2 court appearances where we were reset after which Rand was able to compile a stellar grand jury packet. Unfortunately, the grand jury recommended that the prosecutors take the case to trial rather than dismiss, but Rand was not about to settle for that, he assured us he would talk to the prosecutors and convince them to dismiss. 2 days before our 3rd court date, Rand called and told us he had been speaking to the lead prosecutor, and he was able to convince her to drop the case! A-MAZING! The relief was overwhelming, the dark cloud was immediately lifted and we could not have been more thankful to have such a diligent attorney on our side. He is like a dog with a bone and does not accept less than what he thinks is the best possible outcome! I should also mention that watching him in the courtroom, he is a standout, you immediately see his experience and professionalism outshine all the other attorneys in the room! We knew the minute we saw him working the room that we had made the right choice. I hope to never need Rand again, but you can bet that if we ever run into any trouble again he'll be the first person we call and I would recommend him to any family member or friend in a heart beat!

I have known this man for many years and I can attest that is highly regarded by his peers to be an excellent attorney. He fights for his clients and is a beast in the courtroom. I highly recommend him to anyone.

Paul Morgan, Criminal defense Attorney on Dec 4, 2016

Rand Mintzer is a great lawyer and is very well respected. He fights hard for his clients and does not give up when things get tough. If you have Rand Mintzer in your corner, you got a excellent attorney on your side.

Andreea Ionescu, Criminal defense Attorney on Nov 30, 2016

I have worked with Rand on a few occasions when I was a prosecutor. He is always prepared and thorough with his cases. He was very easy to work with, but at the same time zealously fighting for his clients

Matthew Horak, Criminal defense Attorney on Oct 12, 2016
Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

I wholeheartedly endorse Rand. Of the attorneys I would trust for myself or my family and friends, Rand is at the top of my list. I have worked with Rand as a prosecutor and as a fellow defense attorney for many years and he exemplifies professionalism and good judgment. He is also smart as hell. Most importantly, Rand gives it all for his clients and fights to ensure that they are protected and given a voice in a system that swallows people up if they do not have a lawyer like Rand.

Lloyd Krell, Personal injury Attorney on Sep 9, 2016
Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

I happily endorse Rand. He is highly knowledgeable and skilled in criminal law. He fights extremely hard for his clients and cares for them greatly. Most importantly, Rand gets results and is respected by all in the legal community. His clients are lucky to have him on their side.

Mr. Mintzer has always exuded professionalism in court and has been someone I've relied on when I needed advice on clients, legal issues, or long distance running. He's a class act and I highly recommend him.

Stephen Aslett, Criminal defense Attorney on May 12, 2016
Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

I first met Rand Mintzer years ago when I first began working as a prosecutor with the Harris County District Attorney's Office. He was a great defense attorney then and he still is today. He knows the law, knows how to negotiate with prosecutors (and when to take a case to trial), and genuinely cares about his clients. Anyone who hires Rand for their criminal case will be well served.

James Sullivan, Criminal defense Attorney on Jul 10, 2014
Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

I endorse Rand. He is a very talented, hard working defense lawyer who fights the government at trial and forces them to do their job. Any client would be lucky to have him as their defense attorney. I also know Rand as a fellow long distance runner. He has the stamina to compete in 50K and 50 mile ultra-marathons as well as to fight in rather pedestrian two or three day jury trials.

Aaron Harper, DUI and DWI Attorney on Jan 29, 2014

Top-notch defense lawyer for tough cases. Highly respected in the legal community.

Tyrone Moncriffe, Criminal defense Attorney on Sep 24, 2013

David Kiatta, Criminal defense Attorney on May 10, 2013
Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

Rand is the type of lawyer that people accused of a crime want to have defend them. He is extremely knowledgable, fearless, tenacious and persuasive. Rand's skills also extend to capabilities as a personal injury trial lawyer.

Philip Gommels, Criminal defense Attorney on Feb 28, 2013
Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

I worked with Mr. Mintzer many times when I was a prosecutor. I recall on one case in particular, he really went to bat for his client. Rand provides diligent, persistent representation to his clients.

Mario Madrid, Criminal defense Attorney on Aug 31, 2011
Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

Rand is a conscientious and thorough attorney who has a great reputation throughout the legal community. He is a great advocate for his clients and a very talented attorney who I highly recommend.
