I was licensed on May 5, 1995 and immediately started my practice. Today I celebrated my fifteenth anniversary by getting a client’s family-violence assault case dismissed.
I was going to write a “things I’ve learned in 15 years of criminal defense” post, but Miami criminal-defense lawyer Brian Tannebaum, whose fifteenth was last week, beat me to it.
what a great way to celebrate.
Congratulations!
Don’t let Brian’s great “things I learned” post stop you. I learned a lot from his post and am sure I’d learn as much (or more) from yours!

Helping a client is the best present a lawyer can give himself.
Jeff (first licensed Dec. 1, 1987 – Texas & N.D. Texas, which means I’ve spent considerably more time in law than I did in my first career. Damn.)
Congrats and keep up the Good Work!

Congratulations … and thanks for blogging. I have learned much from you, Tannebaum, and a host of other old salts.
Congrats!
Well done Congratulations!
Congrats, Mark! May you have many more good years of lawyering.
Congratulations. **15**
Thanks for your great blog and great example of successful solo/small firm practice. All the best for another great 15 years, and many more after that.

How about considering a ‘Then vs. Now’ and/or ‘ What I’d do different if I had to do it all over. Better yet, take the rest of the day off and go fishing you deserve it.
*I’m still going to write your name in for Gov. like it or not. Thanks for everything you do on behalf of others.
[…] Mark Bennett and Brian Tannebaum both announced last week that they have been practicing criminal law for 15 years. While I have nowhere close to this level of experience, I recently celebrated an anniversary of my own. As of this past month, it has been six months since I opened my D.C. law office and one month since I began practice in Arlington, Virginia. Below are some preliminary thoughts on this experience. […]
