Best Attorney EVER

I received the dreaded call at 3am that son had been arrested for a DUI... Needless to say I was overwhelmed. I live in a different state from my son and felt helpless to get him support. My husband started researching on the internet to find an attorney and came across Mark Deniz, the reviews were a...mazing, almost to good to be true... He answered our call extremely early in the morning and spent over 30min on the phone with us to walk us through the process that my son would be facing. After that phone call I felt confident that we had chosen the right attorney. My son still had a lot of work to do but Mark sat down with him and created a game plan and was on top of ALL the paperwork and court dates. He was always available for questions and made the whole nightmare easier to navigate...He has resolved the case with a better outcome than any of us could have ever expected and now my son is in recovery and sober... I can't begin to tell you how very grateful we are to have had him defending our son. If we ever have another situation and God forbid we do, Calling Mark Deniz would be our very 1st step and should be yours as well if you are looking for help...

COMMITTED DEFENSE ATTOURNEY

Mark handled my DUI defense with superb expertise. His vast experience was vital in providing me with suggestions to avoid a $200,000 bond and worked out a plea agreement to reduce my charges from a felony DUI charge with three years of potential jail time to a misdemeanor with 3 months of house arr...est. I was terrified over my charges because of my immigration status and how my charges would affect my Visa application. Mark is very committed to his clients and keeps them very informed of the matters surrounding your case. His integrity is impeccable. He will be completely forth coming with you and provide you with a very honest opinion for the risk associated. I had the option of accepting a public defender and was concerned because I had a very serious charge against me. Mark advised me that my case could become expensive if it indeed went to trial. I am so happy with the out come he work so hard to get for me.

Best Attorney in San Diego!

I was arrested for domestic battery in March 2016, a very serious crime. If convicted, I was facing possible jail time, loss of my gun rights, loss of my state licenses, huge fines, anger management classes, and future issues with custody and visitation with my child. I was scared and needed help q...uick. I never thought in a million years I would have been arrested for a battery charge and sure didn’t know how serious California treats domestic violence / battery cases. So… I interviewed 5 attorneys within a couple of days. They all were very good in their own right but I never felt like any of them really were going to be able to help me or had my best interests at heart. I felt like a number and a dollar sign in many of the interviews with the 5 attorneys. Then, on a Saturday night, I found Mark online. I read ALL of his reviews and could hardly believe how many great things were being said about him. I picked up the phone and called expecting to get an answering machine. Mark answered and spent a good 30 minutes talking with me at 9 pm on a Saturday night. Who does that??? You could tell instantly he knew his craft inside and out. He told me each and every step that both the police and then the prosecutors would take to try and convict me of the crime. He is a straight shooter and won’t sugar coat anything either which I really appreciate. By the end of the phone call, I was extremely impressed and was 90% sure I was going to hire Mark to defend me. After I did some more research on him and his amazing career both as a prosecutor and in private practice, I knew he was the guy! I sent him an email late that night telling him I wanted to retain him. I received the retainer agreement early Sunday morning, signed it, and he was hired. Impressed again! I thought I would talk with him on Monday to give him more details about the case but I got a phone call on Sunday from Mark and he was already working on the case. I was impressed yet again. I don’t think the man sleeps! Everything that each person wrote in theses reviews about Mark is pretty much spot on. Mark really does care about his clients. He is easy to reach and usually answers his phone but will always get back to you within a few hours when you call. He calls and sends updates as he gets them. He is easy to work with and takes the time to explain any questions you may have. He is as professional as they come. Mark is a bulldog too. He is all over the prosecutors and floods them with so much information about his clients and their situation that the prosecutors HAVE to pay attention. The prosecutors are forced to look at each case and the person being prosecuted instead of looking at each case as a number and another conviction. Mark explained that prosecutors are paid to get convictions period. Mark has some unique tools that force the prosecutors to think twice before seeking a conviction or plea deal. I bet prosecutors hate to see any cases defended by Mark Deniz. In regards to the outcome of my case, Mark got the charges DROPPED!!!! The experience he gained while being a prosecutor gives him so many advantages. He knows the system and how to work it, he is well respected by everyone in the court and legal system, and he is friends with many of the judges, prosecutors, and everyone you need on your side to help you get the best outcome possible. My case could have easily gone the other way and I truly believe it is because of Mark’s relationships experience, professionalism, charisma, and follow through that it ended with such a favorable outcome. I will recommend EVERYONE to Mark Deniz. He saved my life in a lot of respects and I can’t tell you how grateful I am. I wish he practiced other areas of law as I would hire him to do it all. If you have a criminal matter or DUI, pick up the phone and call Mark now. It may be the best phone call you ever make!

Personable, Professional & Empathetic!

We initially contacted Mr. Deniz after interviewing several attorneys. We retained him because he was knowledgeable, empathetic and generous with his time. Although our case was difficult and messy, he maintained his calm demeanor. Mr. Deniz connected at a personal level with us. And, honestly, we we...re relieved to have him in our corner the minute we met him. He exudes confidence. His co-counsel, Elisa, was most impressive examining our witness and very composed. We won our case. Would definitely retain him again!
