Criminal Defense (State and Federal)

If you have been accused of a crime, you need a good defense lawyer. The consequences are too serious to leave things to chance. Whether your crime was a misdemeanor or a felony, a DWI, an assault, a drug crime, or anything else that is a criminal offense in Texas, you must have an experienced defense attorney to give yourself every possible chance for the best possible outcome.

The way your case is handled can make a big difference. Don’t take unnecessary risks when you are facing a potential jail or prison term, a fine, or a stain on your record that could haunt you for the rest of your life. The smart thing to do is to get an experienced criminal defense lawyer you can count on to fight hard for you. Without a good lawyer, you are at a disadvantage, and the worst-case scenario could come true.

A lawyer who is a general practitioner without a lot of criminal law experience will not have the knowledge and skills that an experienced criminal defense lawyer gains over time. A public defender may mean well but have a caseload so large that he or she has little time to devote to your case.

I am an aggressive and experienced criminal defense attorney. I have fought for my clients for 10 years in criminal courts throughout Texas, both in state court and in federal court. I serve all of Central Texas, including Bell, Coryell, Falls, Lampasas, McClennan, Milam, and Williamson Counties.
