Services
Probate
Our probate services guide executors through Texas estate administration, handling will validation, asset distribution, and debt resolution. We specialize in Independent Administration and Muniment of Title proceedings, helping families transfer property and settle estates efficiently. With expertise in Galveston County courts, we simplify complex legal requirements while protecting beneficiaries' interests.
Estate Planning
We create comprehensive estate plans including wills, trusts, and power of attorney documents tailored to Texas law. Our practice emphasizes proactive planning through transfer-on-death deeds and contingent trusts for minor children. We help clients preserve assets and ensure their wishes are honored through legally binding documentation completed within one business day.
Personal Injury
Our personal injury representation secures compensation for car accident victims through insurance negotiations and litigation. We handle medical bill coordination, lost wage claims, and pain-and-suffering settlements across Houston metro area courts. With contingency-based representation, clients pay nothing unless we win their case.
Criminal Defense
We defend clients against DWI, drug possession, and assault charges in Galveston and Harris County courts. Our approach includes evidence review, ALR hearing requests for license protection, and negotiation strategies for charge reduction or dismissal. Former prosecutor experience informs our defense tactics for misdemeanor and felony cases.
Traffic Tickets
Our traffic violation defense minimizes license points and insurance impacts through court representation. We handle commercial and personal license violations across League City municipal courts, securing reduced fines and dismissed charges without client appearances. Warrant resolution services help clients regain driving privileges.

Questions
Why is having a will important in Texas?
A will ensures your assets distribute according to your wishes rather than state intestacy laws. It appoints an executor and can establish trusts for minor children.
What happens during Texas probate?
Probate validates wills, appoints executors, settles debts, and transfers assets. Options include Independent Administration for comprehensive estate management and Muniment of Title for property transfers.
How does a trust differ from a will?
Trusts avoid probate by transferring asset ownership to a trustee, while wills require probate court validation. Trusts offer ongoing management, while wills take effect only after death.
What should I do after a car accident?
Seek medical attention, document the scene, and contact our office immediately. We'll handle insurance negotiations and ensure medical bills get paid through your case recovery.
Can I handle traffic tickets without court appearances?
Yes, our office represents clients in municipal courts to reduce fines, prevent license points, and resolve warrants without requiring client attendance.
