Did You Know the Following about Texas Criminal Law?
- A DWI conviction in Texas can put you behind bars anywhere from 6 months to 20 years depending upon the circumstances, and even probation can cost you $3,000.00 or more to renew your driver's license. I know how to use science and the law to help build you the strongest case possible.
- Accepting a plea for a minor drug offense can present serious negative consequences down the road, including loss of federal student aid. Before pleading guilty, seek the advice of a knowledgeable attorney first.
- Passing a hot check in Texas is considered theft and can lead to significant prison time depending on the amount of money involved.
- Robbery or "theft from a person" is a felony offense that can lead to a sentence of anywhere between 10-20 years behind bars.
- In Texas, sexual assault is a felony. Penalties for conviction range from 10 years to life in prison, lifetime registration as a sex offender, and in certain circumstances the death penalty.
- Domestic violence is a serious matter. If you are facing charges, do not take the charges lightly. An experienced criminal defense attorney can help protect your rights.
- Post-conviction appeals and writs of habeas corpus can be complex and highly technical. If not done properly, a person could forever lose the opportunity to have a federal court review the case. I know the law and how to efficiently navigate the legal system.
- I have represented clients at all levels from hot checks to robbery, DWI to murder, and state appeal to federal death penalty writs of habeas corpus.
- My representation covers parole review, revocation, and violation cases throughout Texas.
