Former Texas Prosecutor Defending Your Rights

An arrest is not a conviction. Your strategic defense starts now.

Former Texas Prosecutor. Strategic Criminal Defense.

As a former Texas prosecutor, I don't just sit back and defend. I am a firm believer that the best defense is one that is aggressive and works to build a case against the prosecution's version of what happened. This approach requires us to effectively anticipate their tactics, fight to throw out their evidence, challenge their witnesses whether they are cops, experts or alleged victims.


Our goal from the first time we meet will be to build a strategic defense designed specifically for your circumstances. Of the 100s of dismissals we have secured, including serious felonies, the vast majority required this type of aggressive approach.
