Mark Christopher Morales

Mark Morales is a Williamson County native who began his career as an Assistant District Attorney. Due to his reputation as a criminal trial lawyer, Mark made a remarkably fast rise to become a felony prosecutor. In fact, after only six month on the job, he was already assigned to work with FBI agents and Texas Rangers on a high profile murder case. Since then, he has been the lead trial lawyer in cases ranging from murder, sexual assault, drug offenses, and assault family violence. In addition, as a prosecutor and defense attorney Mark has worked on thousands of DWI cases. Also, in order to provide the best defense for his clients, he has undergone the same training and certification that police officers have in Field Sobriety Testing. After his years as a prosecutor, in 2003, Mark started practicing criminal defense where he earned a reputation as one of the 'go-to' lawyers in the County due to his negotiation and trial ability. Since becoming a defense attorney over ten years ago, he has personally defended over three thousand people accused of Felony and Misdemeanor cases in Williamson County where he has worked closely with the judges and prosecutors. Now every person who retains our firm is able to receive the benefit of his unique experience and reputation as a criminal lawyer. Mark was named by Texas Monthly Magazine as a Super Lawyer Rising Star and one of top lawyers in Texas for two years in a row. Less than 2.5% of all lawyers in the state receive this honor and it is based on peer recognition and professional achievement. In 2014, Mark was also selected as one of the Top 100 Trial Lawyers in the United States by the Trial Lawyers Association.
