Biography

Mark J Sullivan is the preeminent criminal defense lawyer in the Desert. He's one of only 12 Certified Criminal Law Specialists in all of Riverside County, and the only one in Palm Springs. In a poll conducted in a San Bernardino County District Attorneys office, he was chosen as the defense attorney that the prosecutors would have represent them if they were arrested. As the well-known Judge John J "Jack" Ryan, Jr. puts it, "Mr. Sullivan is the consummate professional. He is held in the highest regard by members of the Riverside County bench. He is well respected by the local prosecutors and defense bar. I have worked with and have had the opportunity to see several great attorneys in these past 35 years. Mr. Sullivan is the best I have seen in Riverside County - and he ranks with the best criminal defense attorneys I've ever seen anywhere." In a poll of prosecutors in a San Bernardino County District Attorney's office, Mr. Sullivan was voted the defense lawyer whom prosecutors would want to have represent them if they were ever in trouble with the law.
