State v. K.T.

DWI/ Ft Bend No. 4

1/11/18

0.138 BLOOD TEST! Client rear ended a vehicle at a stop sign. When client went to check on the car, the man’s Labrador was sitting in his lap and the client asked if the dog was driving. Client was very strange on video, but that was normal for him. When he was 16, he was involved in a car accident and placed in a coma. As a result of this accident he suffered trauma to his frontal lobe and suffers from Dysexecutive Syndrome. He also never played sports after this accident. The DA was hell bent on not letting the jury hear about his prior accident and condition, but the Judge did the right thing and allowed the relevant information in. The jury was allowed to get to know the client and realize that any loss of mental or physical faculties, but was normal for this client. As for the blood, it just didn’t add up. The State’s expert retrograded the blood back to a .21 at the time of driving. And for the client to be that drunk and never ask to go to the bathroom…. Also, the jury didn’t like the analyst stating he was 100% accurate in his work. Even NASA makes mistakes, but not the government?? The jury made the just verdict and told the State they just had too much doubt. As much as the State tried to hide the evidence from coming in, the jury was able to see through all their tactics. The client is now planning on getting engaged to his girlfriend now that this nightmare is over. Thank you to the Judge for his ruling and the jury for staying true to their doubt.

The Best Lawyer in the Industry

I chose Mark Thiessen to represent me in a DUI / DWI case and it was the best selection/decision that I could have made. I found out about Mark through Internet search and reached out to him and his office. Upon meeting with Mark – I immediately knew that he was the right lawyer/attorney to represent me and give me the best opportunity to win my case. Mark is an expert attorney with a work ethic that is second to none. He is always available. He is a master of his craft and will give you the best opportunity to win your case. He will be prepared and he will do everything to ensure your case is won. He will actually be more knowledgable on the aspects of law, facts of the case, than the individuals that have accused you of your offense. He was highly successful in my case, even despite some of the alleged facts not being in my favor. We won the case and all charges were dropped. Thanks Mark!

Fantastic Lawyer

I would HIGHLY recommend hiring Mark Thiessen as your attorney for any criminal case that you have received in the Harris County area. He is extremely knowledgeable of the court system and what actions can be taken pre-trial in order to have the best outcome at your court date. I was put on probation for a DWI a year previous to hiring Mark as my attorney. I failed to complete the requirements in order to get off of probation. My probation was revoked and sent back to the courts. That’s when I hired Mark. He told me to go complete the rest of the requirements for probation and get myself a court date. When we got to court he persuaded the judge not only to dismiss my probation, but dismiss it successfully. In court he made small talk with the judge and prosecutor which told me that he knew them and had a good relationship with them. Which was not the case for other attorneys that went in front of this judge. Again you can’t go wrong hiring Mark. He is great attorney and great person.

If You Want a GREAT Lawyer, Mark Thiessen is Your Man

I found Mark Thiessen through several of my friends. I was having serious issues with the lawyer I had at the time. He kept telling me I was going to jail when I had done nothing. He did not believe me, and I believe he was gonna have me put in jail and not fight for my innocence. From the moment I met Mark Thiessen, I knew he was going to do everything for me to keep me from that horrid jail. I was not allowed to leave my county. He drove all the way up to The Woodlands to meet me at Starbucks to speak on my case. He got all the charges against me dropped within minutes. He’s truly the best lawyer. He has a lot of respect from his piers including the judge that actually told me I was very lucky to have such a great lawyer. And trust me, I know I was lucky to have found him, and that is the gods honest truth. If you want a GREAT lawyer, Mark Thiessen is your man.

The BEST Attorney in Harris County and Probably One of the Best in the Nation

Mark Thiessen is by far the BEST attorney in Harris County and probably one of the best in the nation. His firm is extremely polite and professional. Mark and his staff were always there for me when I had questions or concerns. He was able to get my DWI dismissed in Harris County which is a huge relief. I would highly recommend Mark for any DWI or drug related case.
