Criminal Defense
Our former prosecutors defend clients against all criminal charges in North Texas courts. We leverage insider knowledge of prosecutorial strategies to build aggressive defenses for misdemeanor and felony cases. With decades of combined experience handling over 500 jury trials, we focus on case dismissals, reduced charges, and protecting clients' rights throughout the legal process.
DWI Defense
We defend DWI charges through technical analysis of blood alcohol testing, challenge improper traffic stops, and contest evidence admissibility. Our team handles license suspension hearings and fights for reduced penalties while protecting clients' driving privileges and criminal records from permanent damage.
Domestic Violence
We challenge domestic violence allegations by examining injury evidence, testing witness credibility, and defending against protective order violations. Our former prosecutorial experience helps counter aggressive district attorney tactics while protecting clients' rights to bear arms and maintain professional licenses.
Drug Crimes
We defend possession, trafficking, and distribution charges by challenging illegal searches, questioning evidence handling, and disputing possession claims. Our team works to suppress unlawfully obtained evidence and negotiate reduced charges or alternative sentencing options for controlled substance offenses.
Expungement
We help eligible clients clear criminal records through expungement or non-disclosure processes. Our attorneys handle cases dismissed through no-bill determinations, deferred adjudication completions, or charge dismissals to restore clients' opportunities and remove past mistakes from public records.
