Outstanding Representation at Every Critical Stage
At The Mark Lee Law Firm, we believe every person deserves a fierce, skilled, and dedicated
advocate —no matter the charge, no matter the stage of the case. From the moment you become
a target of an investigation to the final word of a verdict, we are in your corner fighting every
step of the way.

1. Pre-Arrest Investigation Defense
   Don’t wait until you’re arrested. The time to act is now.
   If you have learned that law enforcement is investigating you, do not wait and hope for the best.
   Act now.
   Mark knows how fast an investigation can spiral into an arrest, and he knows that the decisions
   made in those early moments can shape everything that follows. He steps in immediately to
   protect you before the situation gets worse:

• Communicates directly with law enforcement and prosecutors on your behalf
• Navigates the complexities of a developing case before charges are ever filed
• Builds a defense investigation from the ground up
• Protects your rights before they are put at risk
  Getting ahead of an investigation is one of the most powerful moves you can make. Having a
  skilled advocate at this stage can mean the difference between charges being filed and charges
  never coming at all.

1. Post-Arrest & Bond Hearings
   The first priority: getting you home to your family.
   The first priority: getting you home to your family.
   An arrest turns a person’s life upside down in an instant. Mark knows that getting his clients
   released and back to their families as quickly as possible is one of the most important things he
   can do, and he pursues that goal at every opportunity without delay.

He handles:

• Bond Hearings — argues aggressively for reasonable bond so you can return home
• Failure to Appear and Bench Warrants — addresses and resolves warrants quickly so
  you can move forward
• Preliminary Hearings — challenges the government’s case at the earliest possible stage
• Case Dismissals — when the evidence is not there, Attorney ML fights to get your case
  dismissed before it goes any further
• Critical Records and Transcripts — moves fast to secure the evidence and
  documentation needed to build the strongest possible defense
  The beginning of a case sets the tone for everything that follows. Attorney ML takes it seriously
  from day one.

1. Trial Defense
   Laser focused. Relentlessly prepared. Ready to win.
   Whether you are facing a misdemeanor or a serious felony, Attorney ML walks into every trial
   with the same intensity, focus, and preparation. He understands what is at stake, your freedom,
   your reputation, your future, and he never takes that lightly.

Attorney ML is a true trial lawyer. Trained through years of competition and sharpened by high-
stakes cases across Georgia and beyond, he brings:

• Exceptional Courtroom Experience — at both the state and federal level
• Compelling, Persuasive Arguments — that resonate with judges and juries alike
• Ethical, Zealous Advocacy — always fighting within the rules, always fighting hard
• A Proven Trial Record — not guilty verdicts, dismissed cases, and successful motions
  When it matters most, you want someone who has been in the fire before and knows how to
  come out on the winning side.

1. Appeals
   When the fight is not over, we keep going.
   A conviction is not always the final word. If you or a loved one has been convicted, Attorney
   ML digs deep into the record of your case and searches for every legal issue, every error, and
   every argument that could change the outcome.
   His appellate work includes:

• Thorough Analysis — of trial records and transcripts to identify every possible issue
• Creative Legal Arguments — going beyond the obvious to find angles others overlook
• Powerful Appellate Briefs — written to make courts take notice and take action
• Full Appellate Representation — at the Georgia Court of Appeals and the Georgia
  Supreme Court
  A great appellate lawyer sees what others miss. Attorney ML is licensed to practice before the
  Georgia Court of Appeals and the Georgia Supreme Court, and he puts that access to work for
  every client who needs it.

1. Sports & Entertainment Law
   Protect your name. Protect your money. Protect your future.
   Your talent got you to the table. Now make sure the deal actually protects you.
   Attorney ML works with professional athletes, college athletes, high school athletes, and music
   artists to make sure they fully understand what they are signing and that every agreement works
   in their favor.
   His Sports and Entertainment services include:

• Contract Review — reads every line carefully to identify flaws, weaknesses, and hidden
  risks

  Likeness rights and deals
• Negotiation Preparation — equips clients with the insight, strategy, and leverage
  needed to negotiate with confidence

  other entertainment contracts
• Rights Advising — makes sure athletes and artists know exactly what rights they hold
  and how to protect them
  You worked too hard to get here. Make sure the contract reflects that.
