I have argued a case in front of the Texas Supreme Court. I recently won a case affecting DWI cases across the State in front of the Court of Criminal Appeals. I’ve handled literally hundreds of criminal cases. I trust juries. I go into every case my firm takes on assuming we will have to try the case to a jury. This preparation very frequently leads to dismissal of the case. I have tried over 60 jury trials, with the vast majority leading to a not guilty verdict for my client. In 2017, I tried 17 jury trials, leading to 13 verdicts of not guilty or the case ending in a mistrial due to errors on behalf of the State. It will be difficult to find an attorney more driven or dedicated to their clients. When I'm not in court, you will frequently find me fishing, boating, and spending time with friends and family in the Galveston area.

Of my five most recent criminal cases, three were "not guilty," one was a hung jury, later dismissed by the court, and in the fifth, my client declined the people's offer of time served (which would have been about 8 months), and, against my advice, insisted on going to trial. As I warned him, he didn't fare very well in front of a jury.. My former legal assistant, Evangeline Arvizu, wrote this about me on LinkedIn: “Mark McKinniss was my immediate superior and we worked together as a unified team. Mark values people who are skilled and who perform with results that a client and a lawyer need and want in a busy litigation practice. Mark supported my dedication and commitment to provide opposing counsel, clients and co-working personnel a clear and genuine interest that translates reliable service expected in a deadline-driven law practice, so that Mark McKinniss could focus on his clients' needs in a manner that delivered the outcome that each client wanted to achieve during their lawsuits. Mark is an excellent attorney because he listens, assesses and then takes action to settle cases and deliver the outcome that his clients have retained him to achieve in the litigation matters brought to him. Although I have not yet observed him in trial, his colleagues report that Mark McKinniss is a brilliant trial attorney with a wicked sense of humor, who wins cases!” May 18, 2011
