Leveraging a Strong Military Background to Fiercely Defend Your Rights

Trying to handle a criminal defense matter on your own is like going into battle without any training, weapons or a plan. Every soldier is trained to be combat-ready, to respond to threats and counter any attacks at any time or place. A criminal case is allot like combat, when the enemy comes he doesn’t always come the way we expect. Only experience, training and a good plan will give you the chance to survive.

In my 20+ years of practice as a trial lawyer, I have honed my skills and applied all I learned during my military career. I have forged a reputation as an aggressive, tenacious and respected defense attorney. I will protect and defend your rights as I did serving my country. I will stand at your side at every step of the way and make certain we stay faithful to your side of the story, enforce all your rights and make sure you get your day in court.

There are two sides to every story. Make sure your side is heard!

Unlike other lawyers who might shy away from complex cases such as sex crimes, crimes against children, or violent crimes, I thrive on the complexity that each case brings to the table. I will use my knowledge and experience of the justice system to shift your case into the most advantageous position possible.

I take cases to trial when you need to have your day in court. My reputation is that of a trial lawyer who is willing and able to fight and aggressively defend your case. I have the credibility, professionalism, and experience needed to represent clients in all levels of court.

I am licensed to practice in the following:

  • State Bar of Texas in all Texas State Courts (Bar No. 24010247)
  • Federal District Courts for the Western District of Texas and State of Colorado
  • Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals
  • Court of Appeals for the Armed Forces
  • United States Supreme Court

In recognition of my legal knowledge, trial experience, and client advocacy, I have been selected for inclusion in the 2014 listing of The National Trial Lawyers: Top 100 Trial Lawyers. Additionally, I have achieved a 10.0 Superb Rating by Avvo, Inc., and have secured the Top Criminal Defense Attorney award by Avvo, Inc. In recognition of my successful and zealous defense of people falsely accused of crimes against children I was invited to and accepted as a member of the National Child Abuse Defense & Resource Center.
