Criminal Defense
Our criminal defense practice covers misdemeanor and felony charges across North Texas. With over 20 years of local courtroom experience, we defend clients against accusations ranging from first-time DWI offenses to complex felony cases. Our approach combines prosecutorial insight from former district attorney experience with aggressive advocacy to protect clients' rights and minimize long-term consequences.
DWI Defense
Specialized DWI defense includes challenging blood alcohol testing methods, procedural errors, and license protection strategies. We help clients navigate administrative license revocation hearings and secure occupational licenses when applicable. Our team leverages deep knowledge of Denton County's legal processes to achieve dismissals or reduced charges.
Drug Crime Defense
We defend against state and federal drug charges including possession, trafficking, and manufacturing allegations. Our strategies examine evidence collection legality and challenge prosecution cases to suppress evidence or reduce penalties. We prioritize protecting clients' employment prospects and professional licenses while addressing substance-related charges.
Record Sealing
Our firm guides clients through record expungement and non-disclosure processes. We evaluate eligibility for first-time DWI non-disclosure orders and handle petitions to seal or erase criminal records, focusing on restoring employment opportunities and personal reputations through Texas' legal frameworks.
Weapons Charges
We defend against illegal possession, concealed carry violations, and weapons-related offenses. Our approach challenges evidence admissibility and prosecutorial burden of proof while protecting clients' Second Amendment rights. We address both misdemeanor and felony weapons charge implications for future gun ownership rights.
