Achieving exceptional results in a criminal case requires a methodical dissection of the state's evidence. To do this, we employ a combination of legal and factual challenges to the state's case. The less credible the evidence available to the state, the higher the likelihood that they will be unable to prove their case.

Knowledge of the Law

Many believe that police officers will always follow the letter of the law when effectuating a traffic stop or arrest. This is not necessarily true. Whether a violation of your civil rights occurs through incompetence or through blatant disregard of the law, we hold every police officer accountable for his actions. We have come across a long list of police officer errors that have allowed us to undermine the state's case. This list, although just a sample, gives you an idea of the “mistakes” made by police officers:

  • Detaining a driver longer than is reasonable, leading to inadmissible evidence
  • Stopping a vehicle because it is traveling too slowly
  • Stopping a vehicle for weaving within a lane of traffic
  • Stopping a vehicle for weaving outside of a lane of traffic, not in an unsafe manner
  • Stopping a vehicle based on a misperceived violation of a law
  • Stopping a vehicle for the sole purpose of checking driver's license and registration.

Thoroughness Is Key

We defend every case with intense, “no stone unturned” persistence -- exactly the kind of aggressive approach needed to successfully defend a criminal case in Texas. We never “settle” for a police officer's version of the events leading to your arrest. Instead, we conduct our own investigation in search of evidence that would result in your case being dismissed.

Here are just a few examples of the kinds of information and possible defense angles our investigation can uncover:

    • Misidentification of the intended subject of traffic stop
    • Police officer discharged from service
    • Police officer with a history of questionable traffic stops
    • Over-the-counter medications producing inappropriate behavior
    • Personal illness affecting behavior
    • Improper handing of evidence
    • Illegal interrogation
    • Criminal history of independent witnesses.

These are but a few of the unique defenses we can employ in seemingly unwinable cases. In many instances, it becomes quite clear that our investigation has revealed facts that make conviction far from inevitable.

During your private, confidential consultation, our attorneys get to know you and all the circumstances surrounding your arrest. Once we have gathered all necessary evidence, we develop strategies unique to your case -- strategies that allow us to deliver exceptional results.

We offer private, confidential consultations at no charge
with an experienced criminal defense attorney.

A Unique Approach to Criminal Defense

When we investigate a case, we do so with the intention of learning the facts and intricacies of your case better than both the district attorney and the arresting police officer combined. Instead of relying solely on police reports and other government documents, we delve into your personal life. Our goal is to get to know you as well as -- or better than -- you know yourself.

It may sound like an odd approach. But understanding you enables us to develop strategies we might not otherwise consider – strategies that can help us defend you to the very best of our abilities, and offer you the greatest chance for a positive outcome.


Your Case Review

Each client undergoes an extensive investigation review process that we have formulated to reveal everything about you and your case. This copyrighted process was designed over fourteen years, after defending hundreds of cases. It allows us to evaluate evidence that the state may consider damning and use it to our advantage. Remember, when you were arrested, the police officer likely knew nothing about you before making his decision to arrest you. By gaining invaluable knowledge about you, we are able to use the officer's limited knowledge against him, weakening the state's case.
