Aggressive Advocacy for the Injured & Accused in Miami and South Florida
Experienced Legal Representation When It Matters Most
At the Law Offices of Lee P. Marks, P.A., we focus on two core areas of law: personal injury and criminal defense. Whether you have been seriously injured through someone else's negligence or you are facing criminal charges that could alter the course of your life, Attorney Lee P. Marks brings decades of courtroom experience and a relentless commitment to your rights.
We serve clients throughout Miami-Dade, Broward, and Palm Beach counties. Consultations are free and confidential. We handle personal injury cases on a contingency fee basis — you pay nothing unless we win.
Personal Injury
No Fee Unless We Win. Free Consultation.
If you or a loved one has been injured due to someone else's negligence, you deserve skilled legal representation. Lee P. Marks has recovered millions of dollars for injured clients across South Florida. We handle all types of personal injury cases and fight to maximize your compensation for medical bills, lost wages, pain and suffering, and more.
Auto Accidents
Car, truck, motorcycle, rideshare (Uber/Lyft), bus, and pedestrian or bicycle crashes. Insurance companies move quickly to minimize payouts — you need an experienced attorney in your corner from day one. We investigate the accident, gather evidence, and fight to secure the full compensation you deserve.
Premises Liability
Slip and falls, trip hazards, negligent security (assaults in poorly secured places), and swimming pool accidents. Property owners have a legal duty to maintain safe conditions. When they fail, we hold them accountable for the injuries that result.
Dog Bites & Animal Attacks
Florida's strict liability dog bite statute holds owners responsible for injuries caused by their animals, regardless of prior knowledge of aggression. Dog bite injuries can be severe and traumatic. We handle all aspects of your claim, including medical expenses, scarring, disfigurement, and emotional distress.
Medical Malpractice
Misdiagnosis, surgical errors, birth injuries, and medication errors can cause devastating, life-altering harm. When a healthcare provider's negligence injures you or a loved one, Attorney Marks pursues the full compensation you are owed — including long-term care costs and lost earning capacity.
Nursing Home Abuse & Neglect
Vulnerable residents in nursing homes and assisted living facilities deserve dignity and proper care. When facilities fail to provide it — through physical abuse, neglect, or inadequate staffing — we fight to protect victims and their families and hold negligent facilities accountable.
Product Liability
Defective cars, devices, drugs, or consumer products can cause serious injury without any fault of the victim. Manufacturers and distributors can be held liable for putting dangerous products into the marketplace. We pursue these complex claims to recover full compensation for your injuries.
Wrongful Death
When negligence causes a death, surviving family members may pursue a wrongful death claim for funeral expenses, lost financial support, loss of companionship, and pain and suffering. We handle these sensitive cases with the compassion and tenacity your family deserves.
Workplace Injuries
While most on-the-job injuries are covered by workers' compensation, personal injury claims apply when a third party — not the employer — is at fault. We identify all liable parties and pursue every avenue of recovery to maximize the compensation you receive.
Boating, Aviation & Cruise Ship Injuries
Miami's waterways, airports, and cruise terminals make maritime and aviation injuries especially common in South Florida. These cases involve specialized federal and admiralty law. Attorney Marks has the knowledge and experience to navigate these complex claims on your behalf.
Criminal Defense
Protecting Your Rights. Defending Your Future.
A criminal charge can upend your life, your career, and your family. Attorney Lee P. Marks is a seasoned criminal defense lawyer who understands what is at stake. He provides aggressive, strategic defense for clients facing misdemeanor and felony charges throughout Miami-Dade and surrounding counties.
Criminal Traffic
Driving on a suspended or revoked license, leaving the scene of an accident, reckless driving, and other criminal traffic offenses can result in serious penalties including jail time, heavy fines, and permanent license revocation. Attorney Marks defends clients against the full range of criminal traffic charges and works to protect your driving privileges and your record.
DUI Defense
A DUI conviction carries serious consequences including license suspension, fines, and potential jail time. Attorney Marks challenges every aspect of the state's case — from the legality of the traffic stop to the accuracy of breathalyzer and field sobriety tests — to protect your driving privileges and your record.
Drug Charges
Florida drug laws are among the strictest in the nation. Whether you are facing possession, trafficking, or distribution charges, the penalties can be severe. We scrutinize the evidence, challenge unlawful searches and seizures, and pursue every available defense to minimize or eliminate the charges against you.
Assault & Battery
Assault and battery charges range from misdemeanors to serious felonies depending on the circumstances. We examine the facts carefully, explore defenses such as self-defense and lack of intent, and work to achieve the best possible outcome — whether through dismissal, reduced charges, or acquittal at trial.
Domestic Violence
Domestic violence accusations are taken extremely seriously in Florida and can result in mandatory arrest, no-contact orders, and lasting consequences. Attorney Marks provides a vigorous defense, protecting your rights throughout the process and working to prevent a conviction that could follow you for life.
Expungement & Sealing
A past arrest or conviction can limit your opportunities long after you have served your time. Florida law allows eligible individuals to have their records sealed or expunged. We guide you through the process to give you the fresh start you deserve.
