incompetent
Would like to go to prison for a very long time, than hire Mark. He is the worst attorney. Stick with public defender. Total waste of money. Incompetent.

Don't hire him, took $25,000 in cash and didn't even bother to show
Don't hire Mark Geragos. I paid him $25,000 in cash and he never showed up to court, he sent his partner Pat Harris. I paid YOU to be my lawyer. I will be filing a state bar complaint and advise others to so so as well. Highly unethical lawyer.
Mark John Geragos's Lawyer Endorsements
"Mark is one of, if not, the most formidable trial attorneys in the country. He has the record to match it."
"I endorse this lawyer. I met Mark at his Reasonable Doubt live podcast. I’m from Arizona and he warmly greeted me as a colleague. We chatted briefly about one of his past public cases. Each week I listen to Reasonable Doubt and feel like I’m commiserating with an old friend. It is easy to be in awe of his past clients, but in the end, we are all fighting the good fight."
"Mark has an amazing way of identifying issues and defenses for every case. If you are a new attorney and have the time watch Mark handle a case. You'll probably learn more watching him in trial then you did in all of law school."
"Mr. Geragos is the lawyer you want in your corner. Mr. Geragos’ work ethic and legal acumen are best-in-class. He takes the time to analyze and truly understand his client's issues, and he’s a true professional."
"Mark Geragos is an a great example for all criminal defense attorneys. Attorney Geragos is a fighter for equality in The United States Criminal Justice System. He uses his platform to speak the truth on matters that make some uncomfortable. As a member of The National Trial Lawyers Top 100 Criminal Defense Attorneys I endorse Mark Geragos as an attorney and advocate for fairness."
