Firm Overview

A Good Lawyer With Good Values Serving Good People

I know it sounds simple, but that's what my law practice is about. For over 24 years and in over 500 criminal defense trials, I have fought for my clients to get a second chance after a serious criminal charge.

In most of the cases I've handled, my clients were good people who either made a mistake or were in the wrong place at the wrong time. In my criminal defense practice I've represented doctors, preachers, accountants and mothers charged with DWI. I've represented "A" students facing a DUI ticket for underage drinking and driving or drug charges for possession of marijuana.

I've built a reputation for success in handling some of the most high-profile and high-stakes criminal defense cases in East Texas. I believe that results and verdicts speak louder than words.

When Values Make a Difference in Choosing a Lawyer

I think it's important that you know where a lawyer is coming from when you're trying to make a decision about who to hire. A lot of people have a stereotypical notion of lawyers. I won't say what it is, but it's not good. In some cases, it's even true.

I'd like you to know that my life and my legal practice are firmly rooted in the Christian values of honesty, service and compassion. I don't do dirty tricks lawyering. I don't try to milk my clients for every dollar I can.

What I do is tell the truth and fight hard to help my clients. When the police make a mistake and an innocent person is charged, I will be there to fight for real justice. When people need a second chance to make better choices, to lead a better life, I believe in doing all I can to make sure they have the opportunity to do so.
