I talked to 4+ lawyers. Money was not the primary concern and I went with the lawyer who gave me the most realistic situation assessment and was responsive. Mark turned out to be super responsive & crisp and demonstrated deep expertise on the DUI / DWI cases. He guided me through all the steps from... SR-22 insurance to timing of DMV hearing. Until the case was closed, I felt like a professional lawyer was fully looking out for my interest. I work with many lawyers for my job and I don't always feel this way. I ended up getting wet & reckless, no hard suspension, and restricted driving. Given the circumstance, it was the best outcome that I expected. I would highly recommend Mark to anyone.

A friend who used to work for an attorney who now has retired referred Mark for me when I got involved into a DUI case. After reviewing several "five star" lawyers on Yelp and Avvo (Mark is among those as well) I decided to pick Mark. An I was so happy that I've made a right choice to have Mark on... my defense side. First off all, Mark is prompt responsive, whether email, phones, or letter from the DMV sent to him regarding about my case. Secondly, he explained to me very clear step by step what will happen, what he can do for me and what should I do in order to get my DL back ? He has a wonderful demeanor, extremely knowledgeable and his response time in responding to any queries you might have flat out amazed me. Alameda County has had a tough law if you have a DUI in their county. One of the punishment is you must install Ignition Interlock Device. You will have to pay for the cost of installation plus monthly rental until you get your license back. To make it short: I don't have to install the Ignition Interlock Device, I don't have to do the public services. I can not say enough positive and wonderful things about Mark, I strongly recommend Mark to anyone who has had a DUI case and is desperate for help.

Mark specializes as a DUI/DWI lawyer. After needing a lawyers help in this matter I reached out to several firms. Mark was the only lawyer that received my information and reached out to me rather. My partner and I were considering a few lawyers and ultimately decided to go with Mark based on how man...y good reviews he had. He did not let us down! Our case went from being very difficult (added penalty for speeding, being on the cell phone, and running a red light) to being completely dismissed! From start to end Mark remained very communicative with several emails outlining exactly what to expect every step of the way from worst to best case scenario. Even the day we called to inquire about hiring him as our attorney he was working in the very same court system (Oakland). This turned out to be a good thing; Mark has built a strong relationship with the DMV and others here. He was able to negotiate results for us that have saved my partners record and several hundreds of dollars that would otherwise have been spent over the years for a one time mistake. I could not be more satisfied and would choose Mark for anyone facing the stress and weight of such a situation. He is very much an advocate for what you are going through with obviously lots of experience including being bilingual if that applies to you. Mark is very on point and does much of the work so you don't have to! Mark and my review are also posted on yelp under San Mateo DUI lawyers.

I have nothing but good things to say about Mr. Blair! I can go on and on. He eased the pain of my DUI case. A lot of lawyers are sales men but Mr. Blair did not even show the slightest of that. If you're going through hell like I did with a dui turn to Mr.Blair! He's hard working and genuine and wil...l do everything in his power to help. Today was the first day since my arrest that I no longer felt depressed. He's quick to respond. Whatever he tells you to do, do it and you will get the results you're looking for. If you're reading this, don't drink and drive, even if you aren't a drinker and you do so one time, it's not worth it! Mr. Blair is the best!!! And I can not thank him enough!!!

I was facing a possible felony DUI with serious consequences but due to following Mark's instructions, I ended up with minimal punishment. Mark will tell you exactly what to do including getting a head start on mandatory classes and obtaining the SR-22 which gets your license back. He keeps you infor...med whenever something comes up and responds to all questions to keep your mind at ease. I would recommend Mark to anyone who is scared of DUI consequences or wants the peace of mind knowing you have someone with experience and can help.
