Attorney Greg Prickett negotiated a plea deal for 9 months after the prosecutor offered 10 years on enhanced charges. He was 100% prepared to go to trial and was confident he would win the case. I accepted the deal for 9 months, as I felt it was in my best interest...

Mr. Prickett represented me in my divorce and custody arrangement. He did an amazing job of helping me to understand the process, the paperwork, and be the voice of reason when I felt like I was overly emotional through the process. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a great communicator, who will be upfront and honest through the process.

After 2 other attorneys wouldn't or couldn't do jack to help me, Candace Taylor stepped to the plate and handled her business. Now after 4 years I finally have my life and freedom back. And she made it all happen in less than 2 weeks time. I have already referred a friend/co-worker to her and would refer anyone in need of a good attorney. She is very knowledgeable and passionate about her work. Should I need an attorney for anything else she will most certainly be my first and only call.

Great lawyer . I was on court a few years back and I seen the way he walked into the court room and was very respected and known by all the court staff, so I asked him for a bizz card and he gave me a very plain card with just his name and number and said that’s all I need to have on my cards Any how I have referred him to many new clients in which 2 were involved in murder cases and got them dismissed . I also referred him to another on drug charges and that was a overturn . My case he got me dropped from a felony to a misdemeanor and no jail time . Yes he is the best in Houston . Thank you sir for work well done !!!

Attorney Elliston is the consummate legal professional with a stellar reputation to add and decades of a winning record in criminal defense work experience to match, frankly, he is the real deal. What I liked most about having Mr. Elliston as my attorney was how I didn't have to be my own lawyer - on the job training, at fighting my own case, not good. I never left his office confused nor feeling like I’m stupid or as if he didn't really listen or hear me, but more importantly - he proved over and over again to be a staunch defender and supporter of my innocence and as my lawyer, he didn’t let anyone else forget it - not even me, in other words - he’s not going to allow you to hold your head down, he makes you feel like now that he’s onboard, your chances just increased 100% so hold your head up high! It’s little things like that that meant the world to me. I liked that Mr. Elliston was also patient with me, once a very nervous and confused client, he was compassionate and understanding, often knowing exactly how I would be feeling throughout this situation and helping me to overcome the doubt. He would always remind me that he was on my side and that we are in this together. He just took over! He was good at “exposing the other sides hand & helping me to understand the prosecutor’s/accuser position and what they’re most likely up to in cases like mine and why the system works like this or like that, etc.!” So many reasons I chose to hire him - he told me to go back to work, to take care of my health and to start eating again, to stop worrying and go back to living life and enjoying my family and to now “let him go to work on my case”. He would often get me to relax by saying “you told me the truth, you gave me all that I've asked of you, we fully understand what the plan is and now let me go and show you how we're going to fight this thing”! We’d talk and strategize, then we’d talk more and again find more to be uncovered and analyzed, and then researched, always in constant communication with me - all efforts were always leading towards our strong end game. And throughout this process, not only did I witness how very detailed oriented he is but I soon came to realize what a great a communicator I had in my lawyer. And not to mention how his people skills shined through when we began to build a coalition of friends and advocates/witnesses to help with my case. He went to work - on my case, never making me feel as if he had “a ton of other things do!” He pushed on, perseverance, creative thinking and just flat out persistence - he didn’t let up and he doesn’t let up until he gets what’s best for his client! My case was no-billed and I eventually got my record expunged. I can’t thank Mr. Elliston enough - he's my friend. I've made sure that my friends and family have is number on hand.

Cathy is my court appointed attorney on a case that just will not end, yet through it all she is the best attorney I've ever known and I've dealt with MANY lawyers for different reasons. She is extremely personable and dedicated to her clients. Over the years of fighting my case she has seen my personal struggle through some difficult times and she always has had a kind word right when I need it most. She genuinely cares about her clients. I would highly recommend her to anyone. If you're doing what your supposed to and are honest with her she will go out of her to help you and fight for you. I'm hoping when I get out of rehab (a personal choice) that I have the privilege of her representing me for a totally different situation. I've never met a lawyer that I could trust and depend on until I met Cathy. She is a rare find with a heart of gold.

She worked so effective and efficiently on my case and I was more than grateful with the outcome! I was facing a DUI charge and Leah was recommended to me by 3 other peers of mine due to the fact she also had represented them in the past and they had nothing but great things to say l! So I took my chances and she didn’t disappoint. If anyone I know ever gets in a tough situation I know now what direction to point them!

So I filed for divorce and wasn't sure how the process went so I shopped around for lawyers. I met Mrs. Mueller and was very pleased. She explained EVERYTHING so I wasnt confused about what was going on. Every question I had about the process and what to expect, was explained. My divorce was finalized quick and in a hurry! She has such a personable personality! Your not a client. Your someone she laughs with and she makes light of the situation. You feel as if you've know her. NRA. Mueller would call me herself and returned emails PROMPTLY. I even had my Will taken care of through her office. Definitely professional and super easy to work with.

Dinah Mueller is an extremely knowledgeable and professional lawyer. Her in depth family law background helped me successfully navigate the challenges of my divorce and child custody issues. She returns calls and emails promptly, and takes the time to explain complex legal situations so that you clearly understand your options. When my ex's lawyer was all about threats and drama, Dinah was calm and reassuring and this ultimately resulted in a better outcome for me and my children. I fully endorse and highly recommend Dinah if you need legal representation.

He can clearly explain the reasoning and provide good support for his decisions. Mr. Williamson can make decisions even under tight time frames.

Tommy was actually my second lawyer I hired for my case, the previous attorney is a good sales man and knows his stuff, but his personality made it difficult to work with him, Then I found Tommy and he showed a keen interest in my case and more importantly, I truly felt like he believed the atypical things that got me to this point. My previous lawyer asked me towards the end of the initial court hearing "you really didn't confess?" just blew my mind because I had been saying that for years. Anyways I hired Tommy on a related charge which I take full responsibility for. He was always pleasant to conversate with on things that can have serious impacts on my life. He also is able to explain things in laymen terms so there never was confusion about what was going on with my case. And the outcome was the absolute best I could have hoped for. Thanks again Tommy!

Harrison Declan is the best immigration lawyer you could ask for ! My wife and I had a great and very professional experience from start to finish. Harrison helped me with my marriage based application to register for permanent residence/adjust status (green card) . As a victim of counterfeit document from Nigeria. My wife(sponsor) an American citizen felt exhausted and overwhelmed after series of denials of our cases submitted to the USCIS. Before I met Harrison, I had hired few attorneys that could not help get my case with USCIS, approved . Fortunately for my wife, she saw some good reviews on immigration lawyers online and that was how we discovered our rescuer "Harrison". The entire process and steps was exhausting and overwhelming but with the expertise of our lawyer Harrison, he finally brought solution to our problems by getting our case approved. He's not only knowledgeable but very friendly and communicates so well in a very professional manner that provides answers to any questions you ask him. This lawyer knows what to do when he picks up your terrible cases. I RECOMMEND that you hire him for all your immigration matters and cases.

Melissa was referred to me by a family friend after I had contacted two others in the area. I sought a divorce attorney that was familiar with Military families and the different regulations that get mixed up with a civilian divorce. After our initial consultation, I knew I found the one that would be worth every stressful thought and pinched penny. Melissa is very knowledgeable and patient when explaining "legal-ese" concerning the process and progress of the case. Despite knowing that all of her time spent on matters of my case is compensated, I never once felt that my case was only a source of income. She always went above and beyond to accommodate my concerns and questions. I never felt as if I was being an inconvenience and her quick responses via phone and email was a reassurance that my case was just as important for her as for me. Melissa is genuine and addressed all I needed and things I did not know I needed. I am thankful for her and she will be highly recommended to all of those in my circle that are looking for an attorney.

I was facing horrible accusations and was arrested. Facing a life sentence for something I didnt do. Through Justin's knowledge of the legal system gleaned through years in District Attorneys office prosecuting, we were able to navigate through a very tough process and came out with no charges filed. Justin wasnt just my atty, he became an ally that believed I wasnt guilty and fought for my freedom. You are facing a legal system that is more concerned with convictions than actual justice, ask yourself-Do I want someone with intricate knowledge of the legal processes because he practiced them as a prosecutor, or do I want someone with just a law degree?

They handled my case like it is their own problem not mine. 608 408 6084 is my cell in case you wanna know about my experience. Also if you get Aubrey Noonan to handle your case then you are even lucky she really likes to help people more than her obligation.

Jeremy Fredrick Rosenthal is an amazing lawyer and genius strategist who helped me through a really difficult time in my life. I violated probation for a criminal defense case and was looking at jail time, not to mention embarrassment, humiliation and most likely loss of any future advancement in my business. He was highly recommended by a well recognized business lawyer friend of mine and I’m glad I went with the recommendation. I was in a true mess, when I first contacted Jeremy, having never been in trouble with the law, I was extremely shaken and confused, he was able to hear me out and strategize how he would approach my case in his candid and analytical manner. He fights for you and is someone who doesn’t like to lose. To have someone in my corner who will stand and fight for me and tell me that it was going to be all ok as long as I told the truth brought me relief. He saved me and my future and he was calm and direct while firmly reassuring me in our discussions. Jeremy was able to make a small speed bump out of the mountain of stress I was dealing with. He is a genius lawyer who brought down the charges making sure I would not have to go to jail time. His concern for me and my anguish were genuine and came from a real place I was so impressed by his courtroom skills and his knowledge of the law and of people in Collin County. I can never repay him for his efforts and his professionalism, they were priceless to me, and for providing me to freedom to continue to be a productive member of society. I definitely refer him business from my network of contacts! I would highly recommend Jeremy Fredrick Rosenthal… he is without a doubt the absolutely BEST!!!

Mr.Rosenthal,I just want to express my immense gratitude for your incredible ability and experience in the court room.

Please let me know if there is anything in the future I can do for you to repay you for your efforts on my behalf. Again, please know I will forever refer you and you expertise to anyone I know who finds themselves in a bind! Thank you, Thank you, Thank you….

Just a few words about Attorney Wade Kricken . From the inception of my case, Wade kept me in the know. He comes prepared, on time, and breaks it down in layman terms. He carry's a mean vocabulary, so pay attention when he talks. Orally gifted in the art of litigation. Wade Kricken returns your calls promptly. He makes himself available via text and email. Wade Kricken has further created Trusts designed around 643B of the IRC. From what I hear, his Trust awaits/pending a patent. I strongly recommend this lawyer. It is my pleasure to recommend this highly qualified attorney and strongly recommend consulting with him first before making any legal decisions. Thank you

Mr. Kricken is wonderful! He helped us 110% thru our whole process. We were being evicted and the landlady and lawyer were not communicating with us but in the end we won our case and were able to return to a drama free relationship with our la Daley once again, he is just great! A wonderful person inside and out. Always communicated well and kept us upto date on any issues and changes.

I can't express enough how much this man changed my situation around. I went from being led to believe by a court appointed attorney that I I was facing 9 months in jail for a probation violation and that there was absolutely nothing she, I or anyone could do about it for that matter to needing to take a few court mandated classes in order to avoid jail time. At first I was skeptical to hire someone I found on craigslist but my I needed someone who could work with me on payments as I'm self employed and since covid month after month I'm still barely able to cover rent on my shop. But being he was a former prosecuter something told me this guy knew how maneuver through the system in a way that could benefit me. This man went above and beyond even when I wasnt as responsive as I should have been. He got me very doable deadlines for the courts orders and I simply can't thank the man enough. I can't wait for business to pick back up so I can thank him with what he really deserves and is owed overdue and that's with the payment he earned and then some. Before he jumped on the case I really was in a state of mind that my whole life as I knew was about to change for the negative and had practically shut down mentally on lost my drive to strive to succeed in anything as I was given the false Impression by a crappy court appointed attorney who simply didnt want to spend any more time on my case because she doesn't care about her clients and probably felt the court doesn't pay her enough to care. Once on my case I was able to continue life without feeling that sick feeling in my stomach thag came knowing it was only a matter of time before cops either picked me up or pulled me over for something and took me to jail. Thanks Jeremiah

After calling a few attorneys, I was very fortunate to find Mrs. Joslin. She took the time to listen to my case and understand everything that had happened. She asked for a little background about me and for a couple documents. She presented my case to the court and was able to get my case dismissed. I did not have to take several hours out of many different days to go to court for a minor offense that could have resulted in fines, loss of license, and possibly even jail time. I am very thankful for her services and will use her services again in the future if I may ever need them, which hopefully I won't. I would highly recommend Mrs. Joslin to anyone I know needing an attorney.

I am eternally grateful for his service and I hereby recommend Mr. Ludvik without reservation.

I had two separate cases that I needed to take care of. Most lawyers would advise you to go to court so they can take your money. Michael was the opposite. He gave me great legal advice and made me feel like he really cared. He advised me to take a deal and even said I can call him if I need anymore help. If I need a lawyer in the future he will be my first call. Great guy and even better lawyer.

We were referred to this firm by our realtor. We were the victims of a scam artist here in San Antonio claiming to be a custom home builder. From the first phone call, we knew that Austin Navarro was a God send. He called us the Friday before Christmas and listened to and allowed us to vent while we told him our entire story. Austin never rushed us and allowed us to unload all the drama we had been going through with the "builder”. Austin was confident from the beginning that we were going to be ok. He never made promises that he didn't keep. Austin treated our case like we were family, he never gave up and he never stopped fighting for us. He was patient, professional and never acted as though we were a bother. When Austin arrived at our mediation, he came for battle. This builder has scammed a lot of innocent people in this area. He is notorious for trying to play the long game - he attempts to drag everything out until the victim runs out of money. That strategy didn't work with Austin. Austin stayed on him and his lawyer constantly. Austin was truly fighting for us the entire time. When we were stressed and ready to give up, Austin stayed positive and never failed us. Did I mention Austin was our 2nd lawyer, the first guy (another firm) just took our money and did nothing. That guy was basically manhandled by the builder’s lawyer. Austin on the other hand took our case very seriously from the first day. I have recommended Austin to all the other victims of the scam builder. (Hopefully Texas will eventually go after this guy criminally) but in the meantime- I am quite certain he never wants to hear the name Austin Navarro again. I would HIGHLY recommend Austin to anyone that needs a professional, strategic, thorough, caring and INCREDIBLE lawyer in their corner.

I had a very positive experience working with this law firm. I was referred to Atty. Austin Navarro by another family attorney who assured me he was great to work with. I found Mr. Navarro to be very personable and flexible when working with my schedule. Very knowledgeable, professional and successful in resolving all my legal needs. Most important, Mr. Navarro was excellent at taking time to explain the legal jargon in a way that was easy to understand. He always followed through with any requests I had. In the future, I will continue to reach out to Mr. Navarro for all my legal matters. I am so happy i was referred to him.

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.

Top Questions to Ask a Criminal Defense Lawyer

Before hiring a criminal defense lawyer, you’ll want to ensure that they’re a good fit for your case. Here are key questions to ask:

  1. What is your experience with cases like mine?
    Make sure the lawyer has a strong track record with the specific type of criminal charges you’re facing, whether it’s DUI, drug offenses, or violent crimes.
  2. What is your fee structure?
    Ask how the lawyer charges for their services and whether you’ll be responsible for any additional costs.
  3. What are the potential outcomes of my case?
    A good lawyer should provide an honest assessment of your case and the likelihood of dismissal, a plea bargain, or conviction.
  4. How many cases have you taken to trial?
    While many criminal cases settle with a plea deal, it’s important to hire a lawyer with courtroom experience in case your case goes to trial.
  5. Who will handle my case?
    Ask if the lawyer will be personally involved or if other attorneys in the firm will handle most of the work.
  6. How do you communicate with your clients?
    Be clear on how often and through what channels you can expect updates on your case.

How to Check the Credibility of a Criminal Defense Lawyer

To verify the credibility of a criminal defense lawyer, take the following steps:

  • Check their standing with the state bar: Confirm that the lawyer is licensed and in good standing with your state’s bar association. Look for any past disciplinary actions or complaints.
  • Read online reviews and testimonials: Platforms like Avvo, Martindale-Hubbell, or Google can provide insights from previous clients about the lawyer’s communication, professionalism, and case outcomes.
  • Ask for references: A reputable lawyer should have past clients or other professionals who can speak to their competence and work ethic.
  • Review their case history: Look at the lawyer’s website or professional profile to see their experience with criminal cases, including high-profile or complex cases.
  • Look for trial experience: If your case might go to trial, make sure the lawyer has a strong history of courtroom advocacy and success.

What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?

To make the most of your first consultation with a criminal defense lawyer, bring the following:

  • 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.

By being well-prepared, you can help your lawyer quickly assess your situation and begin building an effective defense strategy.
