CRIMINAL DEFENSE

PLEASE BE SURE TO VISIT MY CRIMINAL DEFENSE LAW BLOG:  HOUSTON CRIMINAL DEFENSE & DWI DEFENSE LAW

  

I aggressively defend those individuals that have been accused and charged with           criminal offenses against the State of          Texas.  I primarily represent individuals that have been charged with state felony and/or  misdemeanor offenses.  These criminal        offenses include:                                     

  • DWI/DUI Defense;
  • Minor in Possesion (MIP);
  • Burglary;
  • Criminal Trespass;
  • Marijuana Possession;
  • Felony Drug Possession;
  • Possession of Drug Paraphernalia;
  • Robbery;
  • Assaults;
  • Theft;
  • Disorderly Conduct;
  • Bad Checks; and
  • Traffic Ticket Defense

I have experience in handling and trying criminal cases in Harris County and the greater Houston area.  Although I cannot guarantee a particular outcomeI will always strive to seek a dismissal in any criminal case.  In cases where a dismissal is unavailable, I will seek to reach a favorable plea bargain from the prosecutor.  In other instances, a jury trial may be necessary to seek an acquittal (not guilty verdict/dismissal) in your criminal case.  

Don't go into court without having someone on your side to advocate and defend your rights against the State.  Being charged with a criminal misdemeanor and/or felony is a serious matter. A criminal conviction may result not only in jail and/or fines, but also may result in collateral consequences including:

  • loss of employment;
  • loss of a security clearance;
  • loss of a driver's license;
  • loss of the ability to rent an apartment;
  • loss of the ability to hold a professional license;
  • loss of the ability to hold public elected office;
  • loss of civil rights, such as the right to vote;
  • loss of right to possess a firearm;
  • loss of certain educational opportunities and student loans; and
  • deportation.

Generally, I charge a reasonable flat fee to represent an individual in a criminal misdemeanor case.  For most criminal cases, I require that one-half (1/2) of the fee paid upfront to retain my services in a criminal case.  This flat fee includes the filing of any pretrial motions and legal representation at all scheduled non-trial/pretrial settings.  However, an additional trial fee is required for those cases that require a trial.  Trial fees will vary depending upon the circumstances of each individual case.  I offer flexible payment plans and accept major credit cards. 

I will always strive to defend your constitutional rights and fight to ensure that you receive the fair treatment that you deserve at an affordable rate. 

If you are seeking adequate legal representation in a criminal felony and/or misdemeanor case, please feel free to contact me to arrange for an initial no-cost confidential consultation.  Consultations are available in the evenings, as well as, on weekends.  

Always remember you are innocent until you are proven guilty!!!
