The Law Offices of Mark Deniz APLC - San Diego, CA

High Caliber Attorney Mark Deniz, I was facing a DUI charge. The experience of being arrested and facing this alone was overwhelming. I reached out on his website at night and Mark immediately called the next day. After speaking with Mark I knew he was the right person to represent me. The way he explains the process you get a sense that he's genuine. He is extremely efficient in providing the best possible outcome and gets started right away planning your defense. His method of handling my case and answering all my questions in a timely manner brought hope back into my life. He truly is out to help regular people with an affordable legal defense. Don't hesitate to contact Mark, he is the best!!!

Mark did a great job of explaining everything I could expect and worked very hard for a favorable outcome. His knowledge of the process and familiarity with the players involved resulted in a very favorable outcome. The hardest working lawyer in San Diego for sure.

We got in touch with Mr. Deniz after searching for options related to cases mental health and finding an article/post expertly authored by Mr. Deniz. The particular set of laws were somewhat on the newer side, but Mr. Deniz was already experienced in the area. After a phone conversation about the details, Mr. Deniz took the case, walked us through the expectations, and stood with us every step of the way. We very appreciated all the work that Mr. Deniz and his office staff did while working on our case and would contact them again should we need to retain legal representation in the future!

Mark Deniz is one of the best lawyers I have worked with. 5 months ago I was really sad and down bad when I was arrested for solicitation of prostitution. For a couple of days I felt like I was hopeless and frustrated because I knew if I got this misdemeanor I was going to lose my job so I was really sad. I started calling lawyers to see what I could do but every lawyer I talked to didn't convince me and a lot of them were out of my budget. Out of all the lawyers I called Mark was the only one who managed to make me smile after being sad for days. It was then that I knew Mark actually cares about his clients and was the right person to hire. Mark has a really strong personality and is ready to go to battle for you trust me. This guy is the definition of staying proactive. Mark always told me the best thing is to stay proactive throughout the case and he was not wrong. Long story short Mark managed to get me a 18 month diversion which is a lot better than getting a misdemeanor. Mark keeps his communication clear with his clients and is always open to answer questions. overall, I had a good experience with Mark he really saved my tail this time and I'm forever thankful for what he did for me. I know there is people out there going through something at the moment and my advice would be to call Mark Deniz. He also has a payment plan which is amazing because I don't know how I would make it with other expenses so that's another positive about Mark. Overall Mark is a man with a plan! thank you for everything Mark Deniz!

Over and over again, Mr. Deniz proves why he is the best at what he does in the area! (2nd time retaining) Last week on Tuesday July 19th, I received a letter from the Superior Court of San Diego stating that a warrant was issued for my arrest due to a violation from a DUI incident in 2018. I was positive that the conviction was vacated as I had completed all requirements in early 2020 and was only on probation. I immediately reached out to Mr. Deniz... Mr. Deniz responded to me immediately and told me what he required from me. He assured me that I had nothing to worry about the warrant and that something was probably not sent to the courts as it should have been. I sent him everything which I had completed for the conviction. He also assured me that he would be able to attend court the following week on July 27th. and see if the judge would be willing to hear him as we did not have an appointment. True enough, he was able to speak to the judge and was able to show proof of all the requirements that I had completed. There was one requirement which I had completed but was not forwarded to the courts by the Provider of the services and was missing from my records. He was able to recall my warrant within 5 days of getting in touch with him! I was so happy when I heard the good news from him. He delivered what he had promised and if not for Mr. Deniz, I don't know what I would have done. I recommend anyone with a DUI conviction to ask Mr. Deniz to represent you - you can trust him with your case!

Mr. Deniz far exceeded my expectations and brought a long legal nightmare to an end including expunging my charges. Thanks to Mr. Deniz?s expertise I now have again a clean record. Also very refreshing to have an attorney that was straight forward with his fees and incredibly reasonable. Thank you Mark for all you have done to clear me from horribly trumped up and false charges, and returning my life back to normal.

From our introductory phone call, I knew Mark would be the right lawyer for my DUI situation. He was always real with me, proactive and assuring. He worked extremely hard to get the best deal in my case, and I am so grateful for his calming demeanor throughout the entire process. Though this was an extremely trying and embarrassing ordeal, Mark never judged me, wanted the best for me and always answered my inquiries. He made himself available and fought for the best outcome. I am very pleased with my experience with Mark and would recommend him to anyone I know.

Suffered my first DUI in my life at 60 yeas old. Mark represented me, never had to go to court. During COVID everything took forever and I suffered another DUI. Mark represented me in court, alleviated my stress and got me the best outcome. No jail time, no scram, no H & R;s, and helped me keep my driving privileges. He is #1........peggy a.

Mark is hands down the best defense lawyer in San Diego. In 2019 I was facing DUI charges which were completely dismissed (acquittal). I remember he said he wouldn?t charge me unless the case went to court, well it didn?t and I Believe he didn?t even charge me his original fee of 600$. In 2021 he went up to bat again when I hired him to expunge my felony evading from 2012? The prosecutor wasn?t having it but mark had my back and was not only able to get my felony reduced to a misdemeanor but expunged as well. RECORD WIPED CLEAN! Mark is a man of People and I would recommend him to anyone who is in need of a professional lawyer who will exceed all expectations. Thanks again mark!

Mark Deniz was a pleasure to work with. He took a proactive approach to the case which resulted in a favorable outcome. I highly recommend Mark Deniz for assistance navigating the legal system.

This is an attorney to attorney review. I am an attorney who practices law in another state. My family and I live here in San Diego but I travel and am licensed to practice law in another state. I do not handle criminal matters and so I had to do my research and due diligence when my son, age 18, did a very stupid thing and was arrested for a DUI/OWI (and totaled his car in a single car wreck). We did not have good facts in our case outside of the fact my son is a good kid who made a very poor choice. It was very important to me that my son did not escape responsibility for his actions, but I wanted the absolute best representation possible for the most favorable outcome (as I know this will follow him for the rest of his life). I spent several days researching DUI attorneys in San Diego. I read newspaper articles, online reviews, AVVO, peer reviews, etc. I did phone interviews (note: Mark was the only one who promptly called me back). I narrowed my research to the 3 best DUI attorneys in San Diego. After discussing with my wife and son the criteria we were looking for and all the reviews and articles, we selected Mark Deniz as our top choice. Mark Deniz was always at the top of the list. My/our ultimate decision was that Mark had (1) high number of 5 star reviews (100+); (2) was a former 10 year prosecutor (so he is very familiar with the process (on both sides) and knows the prosecutors office well); (3) peer reviewed as one of the best; and (4) he personally handles his cases and does not hand off to an associate. We hired Mark and I cannot express the HIGH opinion we have of Mark. If I could give a 6 star review, I would. Mark was very communicative, in that he always kept us informed. Mark would very promptly take our phone calls and answer our email questions (even after 5PM on a Friday). Unlike some attorneys, Mark does not look for the quick resolution. He really works a case. He does complete discovery, handled our administrative case (for license suspension) and attended the many pre-trial conferences, status conferences, etc. He would always call us right after the hearings to give us an update. When we were ready to accept an offer he requested additional time to keep trying for the best possible outcome. Well, I can tell you with 100% certainty that my son got the best possible outcome with Mark Deniz. My son did not escape responsibility for his actions, but he 100% got the BEST deal possible. Mark Deniz is a professional. He cares for his clients. He personally handles the cases himself and I cannot recommend him enough. Mark is absolutely the best! Thank you Mark and your highly professional office for being our advocate is this very difficult time. We could not have done this without you.

Mark and his team were very professional, helpful and clear with every aspect of the process. They kept me up to date and ahead of everything that was needed to make everything go very smoothly. Even after my case was resolved, they were still there for any other questions I had.

Mark Deniz is the best! He achieved the best outcome during my DUI trial and 3 years later, represented myself to not only get me off of probation, but get my DUI expunged from the record! Very professional and efficient law firm.

Mark went in and fix a botched legal job for me with amazing results. I was charged with a DUI and I was eligible for military diversion and because my previous attorney was not local to San Diego she decided not to push military diversion because it took up too much of her time to drive from Orange County to downtown San Diego. Mark came in after and got right into the fight with the DA who knew I should have been a diversion case from the start. Mark and his team of highly trained professionals were able to get me off probation early and ultimately got my case expunged very quickly. I really didn?t need to do anything except for trust him and he did not let me down. My outcome was much more than what I expected and I?m very happy I hired Mark.

Mark & his team did absolutely amazing work! Any questions I had were answered quickly & I was always kept up to date with all information. The cost of the quality service was extremely reasonable & beyond my expectations. Very thankful for Mark & everyone involved. -AH

Mark helped me originally 3 years ago to work on my case. I came back and he helped me to get it expunged!! He makes everyone so easy and I can't thank him and his team enough for what they have done for me!!

In 2019 I got a very unfortunate DUI, along with another misdemeanor charge that would have looked horrible on my record. I had never been in any trouble before this incident, and was very scared. Not only had I never been in trouble, I broke the number one rule and told the officers EVERYTHING. It was eating me up everyday. I felt hopeless, I felt like a criminal. I have always been the person to uber and make sure my friends got home safe and never drove drunk. I started searching for lawyers in San Diego, and when I found Mr. Deniz and started reading the reviews I started to see some light in a never ending tunnel. I called the office and he got back to me right away. He instantly calmed my nerves, he was kind and easy to talk to. He was also honest about what he thought might happen, no BS. He told me some things I could start doing to help my case, I started right away. Listen to your lawyer, follow their instructions, they will help you. I put my full trust in this man, and he saved my life. I was looking at possible jail time. Not only did he save me from jail, he got one charge dropped completely. He also got my DUI taken down to a WET. HIRE MARK DENIZ!! This man knows the law, he knows the process, and he knows the players. He will give you your life back!

Mark was awesome. He made the entire process very easy. He got my daughters charge reduced to no suspension of drivers license and just a small fee instead for a MIP. I highly recommend him and would use him again if needed.

I received a DUI several months ago and it was my first. I found Mr. Deniz online through a search and noted the good reviews. I called him and he spoke with me on the phone for a good while and immediately put me at ease. He has a lot of experience and knows what he is doing. He immediately sent me an email detailing exactly what he needed from me and honestly, most of this was taken care of with very little required from me. Once the ball started rolling, Mr. Deniz was like a prize fighter doing what he does best while I was on the side lines smiling. I liked the fact that he was a former prosecutor because he obviously knows what they are thinking and what is the standard procedures in DUI's. I never felt judged and always was treated with the utmost respect. Ultimately Mr. Deniz went above and beyond for me and I achieved a greater outcome than I thought possible. When I met with him, I was so impressed by his kindness, intellect and ability to make things easy to understand. He never ever talks down and has a great positive attitude without being naive. Overall, I will enthusiastically recommend him to anyone I know in a similar circumstance!

Spouse had a DUI (unfortunately, not the first). We left message with Mark's office to contact us to see if we could/would retain him. Whomever left message for him 'transposed' our phone number but he we went out of his way by going back to his office phone to see which numbers had called earlier. I?m sure he has enough clients and he could have just not contacted us or waited for us to call back. He called us that evening (surely what should be his personal time) and spent time hearing the situation and asking questions. He gave us his quote which we feel was very reasonable. He gives you guidance on what you may want to do prior to court date that may help. Before, during and after the court dates he was in contact with us consistently along with a face-to-face meeting. Mark is very personable and genuine and he will also represent you at your DMV/APS hearing. The outcome was MORE than we could have ever expected considering the situation. When spouse went to court to pay fines, etc. the clerk couldn?t believe how ?lenient? the judgement was. As stated in this review title, we are in AWE of the outcome. This man KNOWS what he is doing, and we are so VERY GRATEFUL!! Thank you, Mark!! You are the MAN!!

I am so thankful to Attorney Mark Deniz for his help to me to navigate through the tough situation i put my self in. He was on top of the issue and got me the best out come possible, which could have been a lot worse. He is a true professional in all respect. I am sure I will not be needing his help again but I recommend seeking his help if you get in trouble like me.

Mark and his legal team were excellent. They were very helpful and fought hard in my favor. My best advice is to not overthink your case and let them handle the important things - they know what they are doing!

I can't thank Mr. Deniz enough for his hard work on our case! He worked diligently to achieve a resolution I didn't think was possible. He was always available by phone and email and always willing to answer my questions. Hiring Mr. Deniz was the best decision I've ever made.

Mark and Alicia took on a hard Federal DUI case and won. I can't recommended this team enough. Extremely thorough and they got the job done at a great price. Thanks!
