About Mark A. Perez, Attorney at Law
If you or someone you love has been charged with a crime, the situation can feel overwhelming. The legal system is complex and intimidating, especially if it’s your first time facing it. I’m Mark Anthony Perez, and I understand what you’re going through.
As a skilled and accomplished criminal defense attorney with over 35 years of experience, I’ve built my career around helping people in your exact position. Whether you’re facing charges related to drugs, violent crimes, sex offenses, or federal cases, my team and I are ready to stand with you and fight for the best possible outcome.
