Serious Legal Defense Against Violent Crime Charges
Murder and Manslaughter Charges
If you have been charged with murder or manslaughter in Texas, you are facing one of the toughest criminal justice systems in the United States. District Attorneys have every resource at their disposal to seek a conviction. Quite literally, your life can depend on your lawyer's experience and skill.
Assault and Other Violent Crimes
Even a misdemeanor assault charge can mean a serious problem if you are convicted. Although you may avoid jail for lesser degrees of assault, such as a scuffle in a bar, it is still a violent crime on your record. One conviction for a simple assault involving a family member results in every similar charge thereafter being filed as a felony. Under the Texas three strikes law, that puts you one step too close to a lifetime in prison.
If you think accepting a plea agreement is the easy way out, think again. Even misdemeanor assault is considered a crime of violence on your record. Your right to own a gun may be affected and, in the event of a divorce, you may be denied fair visitation and custody rights.
