Great Lawyer

I hired Attorney Mark Deniz for a misdemeanor violation I received at the San Diego airport for having a non-secured firearm in a checked bag. From the beginning Mark was very confident that he could get my case resolved quickly with the least amount of punishment. Mark also wanted to keep the cost l...ow for his retainer. Mark was able to have a bench warrant lifted immediately after we spoke about the case and he began to go to court in my place as I was now residing in another state. In total it took about 2 months for the case to be resolved. I had to pay a fine and that was it. Mark kept in touch with me throughout the 2 months updating me with information about the court hearings and what the prosecution wanted to do. I would highly recommend Mark as a lawyer.

A big part of being a good advocate is the ability to get a client's story.  I was able to hear a story that gave context to what was going on.  This big picture approach is one way you can show the intent of a person (or lack thereof).

Solicitation case dismissed

Mark is an excellent lawyer and kept track of my case and had me informed continually. The case got dismissed with his effort. It was a case for solicitation and he maintained my privacy and was able to get a good resolution on the case. I strongly recommend him and also recommend meeting with him ...in person atleast for your first meeting. Do not be a fool and get entrapped - Know the law, read the local news and the overtime effort from LE. Do not get directly or indirectly involved. Not worth it... LL

Incredible Service, Phenomenal Results

I was facing Felony DUI charges for prescription drugs. The situation was no typical DUI, but Mark sat down with me and explained my case very clearly, and explained what actions had to be done to progress. I had never been in any legal trouble before and I feared these felony DUI charges could ruin ...my life. Mark communicated with me frequently and explained any questions I had about my case or what the next step to take was. He is very easy to talk to, and has incredible communication skills. Mark's experience and expertise became so clear as well after meeting him for the first time. He explained multiple options throughout every decision point of my case, and made sure he understood what I wanted. Here I am almost a year later. Mark was able to drop my DUI felony charges to a misdemeanor DUI, small fines, and a couple meetings and classes here and there. I don't know where I would be today if I had not chosen Mark Deniz as my attorney, and I will say with complete confidence that Mark saved my life. I highly recommend Mark to others who are facing similar charges as I was, and I will absolutely recommend him first to family and friends.

What a great client.  You were easy to work with and advocate for. I always want to ensure you know what is going on every step along the way.   The process itself can be punishment and can be traumatic.  I want the process to be as easy as possible.

A short review regarding my experience hiring Mark Deniz as my attorney.

I contacted Mark via email from Boston Massachusetts to see if he would be able to help me clear up some past mistakes I had made in my youth while living in San Diego. He replied within the hour on a Sunday afternoon! I peppered him with questions that evening regarding my situation and he promptly ...and politely responded to each one. He agreed to take my case. Once in court, he fought for me and got my felony reduced to a misdemeanor and also had it expunged. His fees are not exorbitant and he offered me the ability to make 3 affordable payments spread out over the course of a few months. I would highly recommend using his services if you are in a jam and need the help of a Criminal Defense Attorney.

Thank you for the kind words.  You are a perfect example of someone that every person in the firm gets into this business in the first place....which is to help people.

Expungement

After dealing with numerous attorney’s and not getting the results I needed, I found the Law Offices of Mark Deniz. Of course because of my past dealing with attorney’s and knowing my case was not an easy one to overturn, I was reluctant he would actually be able to help me with my case. After meet...ing with Mark, I felt he had my best interest in mind and would work hard to get me a great outcome. After the filing of Motions and my Declaration, I was always provided a copy so I knew what was going on in my case. I was always updated on the hearing dates and knew what the strategy would be. When my hearing came before the Judge, Mark’s partner, Alyssa argued my case. Not only was she knowledgeable but she was also extremely professional when dealing with opposing counsel and the Judge. I finally found the right attorney’s to get me the results I needed to end this matter. Thank you Mark and Alyssa for your efficiency, professionalism and hard work.

Thank you for your positive review.  I narrow my practice with work with quality people as much as I can.  This case is an example of working with someone you want to go fight for.  Thank you for the kind words!
