Protect Your Rights and Your Future
Never speak with investigators or prosecutors until your lawyer is present. They are not on your side, and anything you say will be used against you. We will aggressively protect your rights if you or someone you care about is facing criminal charges such as:
- DWI — Drunk driving cases involve criminal and administrative proceedings. We will advocate for you in the courtroom as well as in the DMV hearing.
- Drug charges — We will fight charges such as possession, intent to sell, manufacturing and distribution of controlled substances such as meth, prescription drugs, cocaine, marijuana and heroin.
- Violent crimes — Assault, domestic abuse, murder and homicide charges can ruin your future. We will thoroughly investigate your situation and do everything possible to minimize the consequences of the charges against you.
- Property crimes — We defend clients against burglary, robbery, theft and shoplifting charges.
In addition to defending clients against initial charges, we also protect our clients' rights in probation hearings, expungements and motions for non-disclosure.
Our Approach to Criminal Defense
Every client has different priorities. For many professionals, the primary focus is protecting their professional license. People charged with DWI are often worried about losing their driving privileges. Parents struggle with the thought of losing their children. We understand.
During our first consultation, we will listen to your concerns and begin to create a strategy that is tailored to your situation. Highly skilled in negotiation and trial advocacy, we will take the approach that is in your best interests.
If you or someone you care about is facing criminal charges in Texas, call 806-687-4040 (Lubbock office) or 903-887-4878 (Gun Barrel City office) or contact us online to schedule an appointment. We will meet with you in the jail or at your home if necessary.
