A Proven Track Record

Check Out Our Recent Case Results
  • Charges Dismissed Assault Bodily Injury Family Violence

    Our client was unfortunately in a bad relationship that was ending but before the end her boyfriend decided he was going to secure some property that didn’t belong to him. This led to an argument and for Police to ultimately be called. Our client didn’t want anyone to end up in jail so she downplayed the pushing that had been going on only to realize that the boyfriend had saved his own skin.

  • Case Dismissed Aggravated Robbery

    Our client was accused of robbing another person at gunpoint for some sneakers along with a co-defendant and getaway driver. We investigated the evidence and discovered that it was the co-defendant who arranged for the purchase of the sneakers, and that surveillance video disproved the State’s theory that a gun was brandished or that our client knew what was going on.

  • Dismissed Assault with a Deadly Weapon

    Our client, a retired Marine, was out with some friends one night when he got into a fight at a gas station. He allegedly pulled out a knife and left the scene. Moments later, law enforcement pulled him over. He was charged with misdemeanor DWI, felony Assault with a Deadly Weapon, and two counts of felony Terroristic Threat.

  • Charges Avoided Assault

    Client had been celebrating his birthday and tried to prevent some of his guest from driving while intoxicated. While attempting to arrange an alternative ride for a relative, the relative’s girlfriend decided she wasn’t having it and decided to start an altercation with a few other guest. Later she accused our client of having assaulted her and sending her to the hospital.

  • Charges Dismissed Sexual Assault Investigation

    Our client was a Texas State student who had a bright career ahead of him. He was accused of sexual assault by a classmate and an overzealous law enforcement officer proceeded to arrest him without a thorough investigation. Our team was able to fight for our client by putting together a defense that showed that the actions between the two were consensual and that his accuser had ulterior motives. The District Attorney's Office agreed and dismissed the case.
