Mr. Tommy Hull exceeded my ‘attorney-expectations’, with his integrity, honesty, and due diligence. Mr. Hull's representation exuberated the up most professionalism and keenness.
Mr. Hull believes in true justice, and it shows! He is the only upstanding, honest, and sincere attorney I have ever hired.
In short, Mr. Tommy Hull never promised anything he could not deliver: He never lied to me. Mr. Hull is upright, trustworthy, and effectively clear. His loyalty to his clients proves his 'no smoke and mirrors' approach.
When hiring an attorney, your future is in their hands. Mr. Tommy Hull's reputability and sincerity helps to take the weight off your shoulders. With his efficacious plans and effectual results, you will not be dissatisfied. Tommy is trustworthy, detailed, and out to obtain justice for his clients.
His adequacy for justice has been proven: ten-fold. I hope to never have to hire Mr. Hull for another criminal offense. However, I will always keep him on retainer for future recommendation, and counseling purposes: regardless of the legislative capacity.

Tommy Hull and his paralegal Kenna are awesome! I picked Tommy as my criminal defense attorney after an officer made a false DWI allegation against me. As a former prosecutor, Tommy is incredibly knowledgeable and knows how to get things done; he’s a straight shooter and always made time to meet with me when I had questions, and was able to give a realistic guesstimation of outcome right away, but never sugar coated anything(he tells you things you don’t want to hear but need to). Paralegal Kenna is also awesome, she was super responsive, and knowledgeable giving answers she knew on the fly, or reaching out to Tommy when needed. Tommy is a little more pricey than some options in the region, but in my opinion a very worthwhile investment. He had everything taken care of within 7 weeks, and while he told me that I could expect to lose my drivers license; he ended up having the ALR case dismissed too… So I never lost my license, which statistically is something that lawyers in these cases are only able to achieve less than 5% of the time. But I think that’s very much consistent with who he is… I’d guess Tommy is easily within the top 5% of lawyers capability wise.

My family and I hired Jeff Parras to represent a family member in a federal case. I knew when I conferred with his assistant and then with him that he was the right lawyer. He was very thorough in his representation, very respectful and professional, he was great about updates and staying ahead of any potential complexities. The judge on our case even recognized his professionalism and experience during the sentencing hearing. My family and I are very grateful to Jeff Parras and his staff.

The moment she saw me and I saw her and I explained my story to her she was very sweet and caring. I was able to open up to her about my life and how I ended up in a crazy situation and didn't judge me at all. She gave me the best service and I ended up not going to prison and my case was dismissed due to her and her team. She will always forever be inestimable value to me. She's absolutely amazing. Love J.A

Finding a lawyer in Texas for our son was quite a task as we live out of state. After much research we hired Brooke - she was great to deal with and we felt she represented our son very well and gave us great advice. She explained the law, the court proceedings, etc. which helped calm our fears and her expertise got a better result than we had hoped for.

In my opinion, Alvardo Martinez Jr. was a outstanding attorney. He was courteous, knowledgeable about the law and always kept me informed. Anytime I had a question, I could call him or email him and I always got a response back. He worked in our best interest by dealing with the prosecution and court system. He also has a great support team working in his office. They are willing to assist when he is out of the office. I could never thank Alvaro Martinez Jr enough for everything.

Alvaro was an excellant choice for our circumstance. He lead us through a very difficult point in our married life! He even helped get us the education we needed to make an informed choice. When we were dealing with the investment company who held the deed on our home, he made every effort trying to help us remain in our home. We were just unable to keep it, one of us had taken a pay cut and the other couldn't work at all. It was not our lawyer's fault, we were just unable to keep the house due to the drastic financial strain we were under. He will definately will be on our recomended by us. Thank you, Alvaro for a job well done!

Very professional, knowledgeable and their staff is soo nice, I'm very glad I chose this office to represent me in my case. Going through A divorce/custody case is so stressful and nerve wrecking as it is, and mine was a huge mess, but I completely put my trust and faith in Mr. Navarrete to get me through it all and he helped me get exactly what I wanted. I highly recommend Navarrete & Schwartz and their team.

Me robaron el dinero. Puse mi peticion desde el dia 2 de abril ellos nunca se movieron hacer NADA les estube insistiendo asta el dia 16 . Como no isieron nada y el abogado de mi esposo fue con el abogado Castillo el dia 16 de abril el dia 17 ya tebia puesta la demanda. Fui a preguntarles y a decirles si no se van a mover devuelvanme mi dinero o parte de el $2500 aparte muy despotas sus asistentes en esepecial 1 de ellas. El abogado me dijo No te voy a pagar nada xk yo hable con abogado Castillo ya . El caso que ese fue su MAL SERVICIO.... estoy tratando de resumir mi Mala experiencia. Espero muchos paisas no pasen por esta oficina. No confien en ellos . Aveces es mejor pagar mas con un Verdadero abogado que con este tipo de "personas" que no hacen nada y al final Roban tu dinero.

Dunham & Jones is a great law firm to consider if you are looking for a criminal defense attorney. I am extremely grateful that this law firm accepted both of my cases and were able to obtain great results for me.
The confidence and knowledge that the Midland team has is extremely uplifting and definitely gave me the reassurance that I needed. I want to thank Matthew Byrne for our introduction meeting and for answering all of the questions I had confidently and knowledgeably. I want to thank attorney Caleb Weeldreyer for being extremely confident and knowledgeable in the court room and for showing up to every appearance necessary along with getting me the end results that I wanted and I’d like to thank legal assistant Kaitlyn Bocox for the continuous communication along with accurate notifications of important dates and information that I needed to know.

Roy Scott is the worst attorney, people do not hire him..yes him and his assistant Debbie will make promise over promise and they can be talking for so long on any questions you might have but as soon as you give them the payment they’re couple of millions they charge they won’t answer u again and if you call to the office the secretary just tells you he is not available and after calling so many times she just hangs up and if you call again she won’t answer cause they have caller ID the worst persons don’t ever think they will help on any type of case he is too old and can’t even hear what the judge or anybody present at court is saying he is not capable anymore he is a very old man

I had a minor case that started in March for which I then hired Roy Scott to represent me. He charged me $2000 and told me he would begin working on the case and provide updates. It’s December now and Roy Scott and his paralegals have ghosted me at every chance that I tried to reach out for an update.
Due to a lack of updates from Mr. Scott I believe I’m justified in feeling cheated out of my legal fee. Perhaps Mr. Scott doesn’t prioritize all his client equally, which I understand since he’s running a business, but that doesn’t excuse the deplorable attention that I think my case has received.
In all honesty, it’s lamentable that I have to make this post at all. I’ve been a kid that has wanted to be an attorney his whole life and now seeing how some attorneys value their clients, makes me want become a lawyer that will treat clients less as checks and more as people.

I just recently went with my daughter for a case she had pending which were worried about. As soon as I saw Brian Cummings walk in I had a good feeling and sure enough I was not disappointed. He talked to my daughter about her case and said I'll be right back to go talk to the prosecutor and came back with a dismissal. This guy is awesome, was caring and understanding and such a cool person. I highly recommend Brian Cummings for any legal services needed!

Highly recommend Mr. Navarette for all legal issues. I was referred to him by another attorney who couldn't complete my case. Rick and his staff kept me up to date at all times. Gets on your case right a way, Knowledgeable, aggressive, knows his stuff. His partner Christine is just as good. He impressed me when he gave me his cell phone number. I don't know of any other attorney who would do that. Bottom line, don't waste your time with anyone else, go with Rick or Christine for all your legal needs.

Don’t do it! I recently moved out of town and went to talk to another attorney about reducing child support and modification and this attorney did not help me at all. I got screwed over 100% the attorney that I was talking to asked was this your attorney or your ex-wives attorney because if it was your attorney, she completely screwed you over with child support, modification, and sale of the home. And I agree. The final divorce decree was not explained to me on payments, modification or anything else. I thought the attorneys job was to read through it and explain to me I was just told to sign. It was my fault for not reading, but that’s why you pay the attorney to read it and explain it to you before signing If you’re a guy fighting for custody go somewhere else I showed proof that my ex was not a good mother and an alcoholic and even with that, it seems like they took my ex’s over my side, even though I was their client so if you’re a man, please go somewhere else. Trust me on this.

I was very uneducated in how the system works. She helped be there for me and guide me through the steps. We had went all the way to trial. Sara pays close attention to details in the case and events. She can see things others do not see the big picture. She has charisma and charm. It was truly magical how she conveys things to the jury. I had been accused wrongly of two felonies. I was acquitted at trial of all charges. highly recommended

I've been trying to get in touch with her for months. We paid half of our dues, and haven't the other half because she never answers her phone or is in her office. We still haven't been placed on the list for court, which should have been done 2 months ago! You would think hiring someone and giving them everything you have they would help. Now I'm short on time and money and need to find another lawyer! Not very happy! When something is said, you should follow through. She even stated she would give our money back if she can't go anywhere with this case. Not even possible when she doesn't communicate! I will not recommend her to anyone.

Everyone always says court appointed lawyers won't do a good job for you. Mr. Jackson was my daughter's court appointed lawyer and he did an excellent job representing her.

So Mr. Jackson I thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Isaiah Roby Jackson must have struggled out of law school. He's highly incompetent, and unprofessional. He's a nice person when you want to hire him, but after he gets your money, he cannot move a needle. This guy has a lot to learn in practicing law. Please DO NOT hire him, not even for a common traffic ticket. He needs to be retrained. I hired him with a payment, he was lying to me over and over until I found out after a year of lingering. I had to fire him and hired another lawyer who resolved my case with a month. Make him a friend but not your lawyer.

Nick knows a lot about his field of practice and prides himself on learning and improving in others. This makes him extremely well rounded. If he does not have an answer, he will find it rather than claim to know it. He doesn’t make false or empty promises, he delivers! He will do everything to get you the best results and in our case, the result was better than we were hoping for. In cases like my brothers, the families are generally most affected, and this is something Nick and his staff understands. God bless Nick and his staff and if you're looking for someone that's going to work hard for you while caring you should hire Nick Todero.

Mr. Todaro is an excellent attorney! He was very professional, knowledgeable, compassionate and very prepared to handle my case. Everything was handled in a very timely manner. I know legal issues take time and patience sometimes and can be a little frustrating. I never felt rushed or neglected when we had meetings about my case.
Mr. Todaro even took the time and kept in contact with me about any changes, even while he was out of the office on vacation with his family. I would absolutely recommend Mr. Todaro and will be using him in the future if the need arises.

I really don't want do this bad review to anyone, but I think people need to know my experience, so they won't have hard time as me.
I was supper depression and cried what Nick did on my divorce case! especially on the court, when the other side lawyer so aggressive say something so so mean, but my lawyer he didn't do anything, also he playing iphone most time. Even when Judge ask him question, he playing phone didn’t hear Judge. I’m so sad, when your lawyer is not on my side, It's make me cry a lot, even now.
So hard to contact him, he didn’t give me his cell number, I emailed him, he hardly reply. every time when I asked him question, he always give me a vague answer, in the call he always listen me all the time, even I forgot what to say, he will wait when you remember, but he is charging all your Phone minutes fee.
I feel like he is not on my side, he keep telling me the other side's lawyer is a good men. and he convince me every deal from the other side, everyone can see It's a bad deal.
He charge me HUGE HUGE FEE for divorce, I payed a lot money, and still own him a lot. One day he finally called me, and said if I don't pay the rest fee, he will not do anything. He know only have money after my Ex pay me.
He maybe is a good men, but he absolutely did so so bad on my case!

In the process right now. Jeanne Morales office was the only attorney that actually listened, cared, as understood the severity of the case and that my child was in danger. Not only did she instantly get me in the same day to consult but has handled this matter very delicately, but when needed has been very firm and aggressive to make sure my child would be safe along with the rest of my family during this process. When I was first looking and considering other attorneys they made me feel like a joke, like the safety of my daughter was not a concern for them. The one I consulted wouldnt even give me more than 5 mins to inform them what the situation was and see what they could do. I feel like God blessed me by helping me find one of the only amazing attorneys to see this through by a referral. Our court date is pending but I am confident Justice will be served.

What a Criminal Defense Lawyer Can Do for You
A criminal defense lawyer provides legal representation to individuals or organizations accused of criminal conduct. If you're facing criminal charges, a defense lawyer will work to protect your rights, build a defense strategy, and ensure you receive a fair trial. Their primary goal is to reduce or dismiss charges, secure an acquittal, or negotiate a favorable plea deal.
Criminal defense lawyers have extensive knowledge of criminal law and court procedures. They investigate your case, identify weaknesses in the prosecution's evidence, and represent you in court, ensuring that you have the best possible defense.
When Should I Hire a Criminal Defense Lawyer?
It’s crucial to hire a criminal defense lawyer as soon as possible if you are facing any criminal charges. Some situations in which you should seek legal representation include:
- Arrest or police questioning: If you've been arrested or are under investigation, hiring a lawyer early on can prevent self-incrimination and protect your rights during police questioning.
- Felony charges: Crimes such as murder, assault, drug trafficking, or robbery carry severe penalties, including long prison sentences. A defense lawyer is essential in these cases.
- Misdemeanor charges: Even for less serious offenses like DUI, theft, or simple assault, a lawyer can help reduce penalties, negotiate alternatives to jail, or get charges dismissed.
- Plea negotiations: If you’re considering a plea bargain, a lawyer can evaluate the deal, advise you on its consequences, and negotiate for more favorable terms.
- Probation or parole violations: If you’ve been accused of violating probation or parole, a lawyer can defend you against additional penalties or revocation.
- Juvenile offenses: For minors charged with criminal acts, a criminal defense lawyer can protect their future by minimizing legal repercussions or keeping the case in juvenile court.
What Does a Criminal Defense Lawyer Do?
Criminal defense lawyers provide comprehensive legal services to protect their clients’ rights throughout the criminal justice process. Their duties include:
- Case evaluation and investigation: Reviewing the evidence, interviewing witnesses, and investigating the facts to develop a strong defense strategy.
- Legal advice: Advising you on your rights, the charges you’re facing, and potential defense strategies, including whether to take a plea deal or go to trial.
- Negotiating plea bargains: Working with prosecutors to negotiate a plea deal that could reduce charges or minimize penalties.
- Court representation: Representing you in all court hearings, including bail hearings, pretrial motions, trials, and sentencing hearings.
- Filing motions: Filing motions to dismiss charges, suppress evidence, or reduce bail, depending on the specifics of your case.
- Trial preparation and defense: Preparing a defense strategy and presenting arguments, evidence, and witnesses during trial to contest the prosecution's case.
- Appeals: If you are convicted, a defense lawyer can appeal the conviction or sentence, arguing errors in the trial process or legal rulings.
How Are Criminal Defense Lawyers Paid?
Criminal defense lawyers generally charge clients in one of three ways, depending on the complexity of the case and the lawyer’s experience. Payment structures include:
- Flat fee: For straightforward cases (e.g., minor misdemeanors), some lawyers charge a one-time flat fee that covers all aspects of the defense.
- Hourly rate: For more complex or ongoing cases, lawyers may charge by the hour, with rates varying based on the lawyer’s experience and geographic location.
- Retainer fee: In cases where extensive work is expected, the client may pay a retainer fee upfront. The lawyer then bills against that retainer for their work on the case.
The cost of criminal defense services can vary greatly, so it’s important to discuss fees during your initial consultation.
How Much Does a Criminal Defense Lawyer Cost?
The cost of hiring a criminal defense lawyer depends on several factors, including the severity of the charges, the complexity of the case, and the lawyer’s experience. General cost guidelines are:
- Misdemeanor cases: For relatively minor offenses, such as a DUI or petty theft, a flat fee may range from $1,500 to $5,000.
- Felony cases: More serious charges, such as assault or drug trafficking, can range from $10,000 to $100,000 or more, depending on the complexity and duration of the case.
- Hourly rates: For cases billed by the hour, lawyers may charge anywhere from $150 to $500 or more per hour, depending on their expertise and the case's location.
- Additional expenses: You may also be responsible for other costs, such as filing fees, expert witness fees, or the cost of private investigators.
Be sure to clarify the lawyer’s fee structure and any potential additional costs during your consultation.

- Details of your case: Be prepared to provide a detailed account of the charges against you, including any documents related to your arrest, police reports, and court dates.
- Criminal history: If you have any prior criminal convictions, inform your lawyer so they can understand how that may affect your current case.
- List of witnesses or evidence: If there are any potential witnesses or evidence that may support your defense, share this information during the consultation.
- Questions for the lawyer: Prepare questions about their experience, legal strategy, and fees to ensure you understand how they will handle your case.
- Bail or release documents: If you’ve been released on bail, bring any paperwork related to your release conditions or restrictions.
