Family Law

• Divorce
  While we always work diligently to help you reach agreements, we never allow anyone to take advantage of you. We have extensive experience litigating contested divorce issues. Whether you are unable to agree on child custody, you disagree on asset valuation, or you dispute child custody calculations, we will vigorously advocate for you in court. When meaningful negotiation and mediation are unavailable, you need an experienced and skilled divorce lawyer to litigate your case and advocate for your rights and interests.
• Child Support
  If you are facing or initiating a paternity lawsuit, we will work with you to successfully establish true paternity through a DNA paternity test. We also work with you following paternity establishment to secure appropriate child support, custody and visitation provisions.
• Child Custody and Visitation
  If you have children and you are facing divorce, working with an experienced and patient child custody attorney serves to protect your parental rights, while at the same time insuring that all agreements are also mindful of your children’s rights, needs, and interests.
• Adoption
  We also provide a wide range of non-divorce related family law services. If you seek to expand your family through the adoption of a child, we will work with you to insure that all the legal aspects are handled correctly and promptly so you can get a child of your own as soon as possible. We also work with families on stepparent adoptions.

We make sure your agreements are fair and in compliance with Texas divorce laws.

Criminal Law

• Criminal Defense
  Since its establishment, our firm has been dedicated to providing the best advice and guidance, and the most vigorous and effective representation in the areas of family law and criminal defense. Because our practice is focused primarily on these two areas, we are able to provide a high level of knowledge and experience in these areas. Rather than trying to be everything to everyone, we simply want to be the best family lawyers and criminal defense attorneys for every one of our clients.
• DUI/DWI
  Police, prosecutors, and judges throughout Texas do not consider drunk driving to be a minor traffic offense; they consider it to be a serious criminal charge. You need a serious and experienced DWI attorney to represent you.
• Robbery
• Burglary
• White Collar Crimes
• Theft
• Misdemeanors
  Misdemeanor charges must be taken seriously. Conviction for a misdemeanor, even some traffic offenses, has serious and long-term consequences, including...
• Embezzlement
• Drug Crimes
  We regularly represent clients charged with misdemeanors involving traffic offenses, drug charges, disorderly conduct, minor assault, and theft. If you are guilty of the offense charged, and you are a first-time offender, we can explore several options for keeping a conviction off your record and avoiding serious consequences. However, if you go to court without a lawyer and simply plead guilty, there is a wide range of consequences that the court might see fit to impose upon you.
