Legal Help With a Wide Range of Criminal Cases

Our firm can provide representation for defendants who have been charged with a wide variety of crimes, including:

• DWI - Drunk driving, which is referred to as Driving While Intoxicated in Texas, is a serious offense that can lead to large fines, the loss of one's driver's license, and even jail time. DWI charges may apply if a driver was allegedly under the influence of alcohol, controlled substances, prescription drugs, or any other intoxicating substances. While most first or second DWI cases will result in misdemeanor charges, cases involving multiple previous convictions or other aggravating factors may lead to felony DWI charges.
• Drug charges - Offenses involving controlled substances are often prosecuted harshly in Texas. The specific charges can vary depending on the substances involved in a case and the amounts of drugs a person was accused of possessing, distributing, or manufacturing. Possession of even small amounts of "hard drugs" will often be charged as a felony, and more serious felony charges will apply if a person is accused of possession with intent to distribute.
• Theft - Property crimes will generally involve accusations that someone took money or property that belonged to someone else. The level of offense will depend on the value of what was allegedly stolen, and a person may face either misdemeanor or felony charges. Other property crimes that may be related to theft include burglary and robbery, and they will often result in felony charges.
• Sex crimes - Offenses of a sexual nature are taken very seriously, and those who are accused of committing sexual assault will often face felony charges. Sexual offenses involving children, including indecency with a child, online solicitation of a minor, and possession or promotion of child pornography, are likely to result in severe penalties if a person is convicted.
• Family violence - Accusations of domestic violence or domestic abuse can occur in a variety of situations, and they can lead to multiple types of penalties, including protective orders that may limit a person's ability to communicate with their family members or prevent them from returning to their home.
• Weapons charges - While the state of Texas has permissive gun laws, there are many situations where residents may face criminal charges related to firearms or other weapons. These charges may include unlawful carrying of weapons, unlawful possession of a firearm, or possession of prohibited weapons.
• Assault - A person may be charged with this offense if they are accused of intentionally inflicting injuries, threatening to harm someone, or making "insulting or provocative" contact with another person. While assault is usually charged as a misdemeanor, felony aggravated assault charges may apply in cases involving serious injuries or the possession of dangerous weapons.
• Murder - Accusations that a person caused someone else's death through intentional actions or negligence may result in homicide charges. In some cases, a person accused of murder may be charged with a capital felony, and they may face the death penalty if they are convicted.
