Law Office of Mark A. Bederow, P.C.

"Mark Bederow came to the rescue on the worst day of my life. He represented me after a manic episode in 2016 during which I'd been violent. (At the time I was untreated and unmedicated for bipolar 1. I wrote a book about my very fortunate journey to acceptance and better health called BURN RATE: Launching a Startup and Losing My Mind, published 2022.) Under Mark's care, the case was ultimately dismissed and expunged. Forever grateful to Mark for shining light during the darkest days of my life. He is a wonderful human being and an outstanding attorney, and it is a privilege that I was able to work with him. I feel lucky, and I wish Mark's services for anyone dealing with anything, including a mental health issue that becomes a criminal matter."

"We have dealt with many lawyers in the past several years and 99% of them want the most amount of money to do the least amount of work. Mark Bederow is not your typical lawyer. He’s the only lawyer I’ve ever met that actually listens to his client’s suggestions and utilizes their input, and if he doesn’t he explains why. I’ve never met a lawyer as intelligent, passionate about winning, and completely in his client’s corner. Mark Bederow is brilliant, he is a champion of justice, and his love for the law is evident as he relentlessly fights for his clients. He is definitely the best criminal lawyer in NYC, and quite possibly NY State."

"From the start, to the end - Mark was beyond supportive and understanding of my situation and the sensitive nature due to my job at that time. He was very proactive in gathering facts and stats to prove my innocence while presenting my case to the judge. I felt more than confident in his skills and he was always there at a moments notice. If you are in any type of situation where you need a criminal attorney - I strongly recommend Mark Bederow for his attention to detail and sheer care/concern for me as a human in NYC was truly amazing. Thank you Mark for proving to be better than I ever could have imagined."

"I cannot express how comfortable Mark made my son and I feel after initially speaking with him. We had searched and interviewed several attorneys regarding my son’s unique situation. All the attorneys we interviewed said we didn’t have a strong appeal case and should be thankful my son only received 3.5 year sentence. We knew the case the Queens DA built against my son was based on lies and deception but no one would listen to us, until we finally contacted Mark Bederow. Mark not only listened but believed us and immediately pointed out everything wrong with the prosecution’s case. He gave us hope and validated our concerns. We didn’t hesitate to hire him. Mark is fully dedicated, extremely passionate and knowledgeable about the law and its process. Mark kept us informed of developments and explained in detail what was happening in the case, what to expect and his strategy. He will leave no leaf unturned and will make sure you understand the process. I am forever grateful for his commitment and his passion for the truth and justice."

"I cannot say enough about the professional and talented Mark Bederow. Several Years ago I was charged with a crime based on contradicting written and verbal statements by a single witness who had much to gain if I were convicted. For months I sat by feeling frustrated and helpless as two separate defense attorneys representing me in succession allowed an overly zealous prosecutor to bully me even though her case was almost none existent. It is my opinion that these defense attorneys were more interested in making status quo deals than doing the work it would required to see me vindicated. I had all but lost my faith in our justice system, until a friend introduced me to Mark Bederow and after a consultation I hired him to represent me. Mark went through the details of my case with energy and passion convincing me that my case mattered to him personally. A few days in, Mark put a summary of my case in writing that was as clear and powerful as defendant could ask for. My ultimate exoneration began before we even went before the judge because I was being represented by a lawyer who is not only talented and diligent but someone who cares about his clients. Mark was able to get the case against me dropped in a short amount of time while putting me in a powerful position to negotiate mutual interests between the plaintiff and me. I trusted Mark and I was not disappointed. I recommend him without hesitation. E Miranda New York, NY"
