Kacie Penman was my attorney, and she truly exceeded my expectations. Her professionalism and attention to detail were remarkable. She took the time to explain every step of the process and answered all my questions promptly. Her expertise gave me confidence throughout the entire journey. The overall experience with Thiessen Law Firm was excellent. Kacie and Cindy were responsive and always willing to help. I highly recommend Thiessen Law Firm for anyone seeking reliable and effective legal representation. Their commitment to success is truly commendable! Their diligent work led to the dismissal of my case, allowing me to move forward without a criminal record.

The moment I spoke with Mark Thiessen, I felt reassured and confident that I chose the right person. He’s respectful and compassionate where you’ll feel like you have a guardian who sees you as a real person with a real life to defend, and not just a case number.
More importantly, he’s extremely knowledgeable and experienced, and he’s capable of creating incredibly positive outcomes from situations that seem like they’re hopeless.
I assure you you’ll never trust any attorney more than Mr. Thiessen after you take the initial leap of faith in choosing him.
THE BEST SUPER LAWYER in TEXAS!!!!!

Chase Waterwall is an amazing attorney, very professional, proficient and great at what he does!! I spoke to many attorneys before making my decision to go with him and it was the best decision I ever made. He fights really hard for his clients to give them the justice they deserve. He’s very thorough and transparent which I loved about him.

James Mount is pleasant surprise, I have to say, as he is my court appointed attorney for a case I have currently. I took a chance on him because of how he handled himself in court with his other clients. He is sharp, on point and he knows his stuff. He advised me on the best course of action and I trust him implicitly. Court appointed attorneys have gotten a negative reputation at times because of the tired adage that they “just go through the motions” and not have to really get entrenched and go to bat for their clients. The state of Texas now reviews everyone of their cases and they are held to a high standard which is great for the general populace of course. I highly recommend this man if you need a seasoned and smart attorney. Great job James. It is refreshing to witness someone who genuinely cares for his/her clients and handles himself with aplomb and class.

Mr. Augustin Pink was like the North Star for me, guiding me with sound advice throughout the entire legal process. His knowledge and advice were beneficial in helping me understand the necessary steps to take. He was always prompt in responding to my questions and provided clear, effective answers. He was straightforward and direct about the situation we were encountering. With his leadership, I never felt lost and I am extremely grateful that I was referred to Mr. Pink for legal counsel.

Attorney Thornton and her incredible legal staff (shoutout to Nadine!) are exactly what you need if you want to not only win but also be treated like a human being. Their degree of compassion and understanding is unparalleled, and I could not imagine getting through this legal process without them. There are not enough words to explain how grateful I am for everything they have done for me. If you are considering employing this law firm, stop thinking about it and sign on the dotted line. I guarantee you will not be disappointed!

Micheal Slider is the best! He and Ms. Sharma fought tooth and nail in my cases. In spite of several felony cases that should have led me to prison for 10 years, The Slider Law firm was persistent and diligent in their argument with on my behalf. I got probation and with the counsel and valuable advice that Mr. Slider gave me to sober up and get into rehab, I took the advice seriously and now have been sober for 4 months working a recovery program and am a sponsor and mentor for 5 other men. They are the best!

Wes & Anne are truly a blessing! 5 stars isn’t enough to describe this team! After having had switch lawyers due to my ex attorney sitting on my case for nearly 7 months doing absolutely nothing,I was at a standstill with a bad taste left over. Had a close friend recommend Wes,reached out to him that night & received a phone call at 8am that morning. When I say this guy is on it,I mean he is literally ON IT! After our first conversation,I instantly knew that Wes was an honest man…very,very hard to find in this industry! From the minute Wes & Anne took over,I felt WAY more relaxed & confident that they had my stuff all under control. With my ex attorney,I was constantly on edge,stressed,nervous…you name it. After having switched,my family quickly caught drift on my stress levels going down,as well as me being able to rest more due to worrying less all thanks to Wes & Anne working efficiently & effectively! These two are the most humble, hard working people I’ve had the pleasure of crossing paths with! Communication was NEVER an issue,the updates were constant,even when they were on their personal time! Wes talks to you like a friend,making it easy to tell him anything & everything without any judgment!
This duo has your back & will fight for you WITHOUT A DOUBT!

I found David and one of my darkest parts of my life and from the jump he believed me when no one would listen to my side of the story. He worked day and night to make sure we went over every fact we could about my case, on top of everything he kept me in the loop of what was happening in court even when we weren't scheduled to be there. He never left me confused or questioning what was to happen. All around great guy and hard working definitely deserves more than 5 stars.

I hired David Cunningham to be my lawyer. This was one of the darkest chapters in my life. I was accused of a crime I did not commit. I have always been a law abiding person. He listened to what I had to say and reviewed my case and from the start explained everything in perfect detail. He calmed me when I was freaking out. He treated me with respect and dignity and handled my case absolutely perfect. I was exonerated and resumed my life as if this incident never occurred. I am so grateful I hired Mr Cunningham and could not be happier with the experience and expertise he exhibited during time in the court room. I would rate him a solid 100 out of 100 for excellence in his work. Thank you so Mr Cunningham I will forever be grateful for your service.

I am so grateful that I found Vonnie. I went through a lawyer previously and talked to a few lawyers. Vonnie is very different from other lawyers. He was very sincere in listening to my story for a long time on the phone and he didn't mind back and forth anytime if I have to get hold of him. Each time, he gave me such good information about the legal procedures and what would be the best route for me. He was very knowledgeable about the law and what steps need to be taken before I go to court. His legal writing is so effective & authentic. I got immediate results. I am very happy with his work.

Ms. Jones is arguably the best attorney I had the pleasure of being helped by. Not only was she extremely professional and well-mannered the entire duration of the case, but she fought long and hard to get my case dismissed. She made sure to gather all details and find every possible solution in order for me to receive the best and most fair outcome. She did not judge or belittle me in any way and always made sure I was well informed about the details of my case. She is well versed in criminal law and strives to represent all clients regardless of how she was appointed in the most fair and efficient way possible. I truly thank her for her services and adore her hard work and attitude. Ms. Jones is definitely someone I would contact again for legal services no matter the outcome because I know she will fight her hardest until the very end to get a fair verdict for all parties.

I have had several attorneys who represent me in my life. But none like Jolanda Jones. Never has an attorney fought so hard for me. It was like I was one of her family members. With my extensive criminal record Miss Jones went above and beyond to get my case settled with my satisfaction. Not only is she professional but she also knows the law. I thank God for sending her to me and will always be grateful for her care and concern. Today if anyone should ever need an attorney to represent them I will always tell them about Miss Jones.

We contacted Mr. Cotlar's office because our son was facing some potentially serious criminal charges. Mr. Cotlar scheduled a consultation with us right away. He was very knowledgeable, straightforward and down to earth in his approach with our son. We had no previous experience with the criminal justice system so Mr. Cotlar explained the process and everything that we could expect. From our first consultation we retained Mr. Cotlar without any hesitation. We felt confident that our son would be well represented. Mr. Cotlar and his staff went to work for us immediately. He was very responsive when we had questions, answering messages and texts almost instantly. Thank goodness all turned out well for our son. If you find yourself in the unfortunate position of needing a criminal defense attorney I would highly recommend Mr. Cotlar. Thank you Mr. Cotlar and staff for all of your help and support through a very stressful time!

If you are reading this you are likely searching for an attorney and you likely already know it’s hard to find one that will really work for you. Seth did an amazing job representing our son after his parole was revoked and was able to get him reinstated on a complicated case at the first hearing. Seth is extremely personable, communicates well, listens to his clients, genuinely cares about his clients, and is sincere, always explaining the process. Seth is very knowledgeable about the parole process and did an amazing job summarizing our son's case and representing, staying the course with a positive outcome. He will also actually return your phone calls and keep you updated. Seth went above and beyond what we might have expected from past experiences. Five stars for a job extremely well done! I will recommend Seth to anyone seeking a parole attorney!

Seth Topek is an absolutely incredible parole attorney! I hired Seth to represent a close friend of mine who was serving a 5+ year sentence for an aggravated offense that received significant negative media coverage and public scrutiny. Seth worked closely with me, my friend, and my friend’s family over the course of many months to compile and prepare a thorough and comprehensive parole packet. During the hearing itself, Seth gave a strong and compelling presentation that effectively humanized my friend before the Board, while also providing my friend’s family members the opportunity to voice their support. As a direct result of Seth’s efforts, my friend was approved for parole and will be coming home much sooner than expected!
I would highly recommend Topek & Topek to anyone who might find themselves in a similar situation. We are so very grateful for your help!!

His professionalism, knowledge and communication style are outstanding. He was easy to get in touch with, and provided updates in a timely fashion. All our questions were always addressed promptly.
We most definitely recommend his legal services to all our family and friends, and in the event we need legal services again, he would be our first choice.

Brian is more then everything I could have imagined operating as a lawyer handling my case. When I say operating, every move and action is thought out and masterfully executed. If you need a lawyer that is going to take every possible opportunity given to him to use to win your case. He is him. If you are tired of your counsel going through the motions, take the leap and switch to Brian. From the first time he glides into the courtroom as if the DA was waiting just for him to slide into the mix and instantly start to create smiles and good relations. You will instantly feel relief and see the value in what a truly expert lawyer can deliver. An objection or challenge is a simple hurdle to overcome for Brian and he will sprint through the finish line with grace. He gives accurate instructions and will give full attention. If there is anything you he can arrange to go above and beyond he will deliver. I will be calling Brian for anything he can represent me for in the future. Thank you Brian for going above and beyond in an industry that can seem so stagnate. You are an incredible to witness Master Lawyer.

I wish I could rate her more than 5-star as rating just 5 star is not enough for a person who is so dedicated to a profession, so caring for those in distress and above all for those who have been burnt previously by a class of greedy, money-hungry , unprofessional attorneys.
She is a Christian and a true Christian attorney who would spare no efforts to fight for you, disregarding amount of compensation she would get in the process.
I was so lucky that my good Karma prevailed and brought me to her to help me .
If one can judge an attorney by knowledge, experience, care , I think she is by far the best I have ever met in my 30 years of interaction by attorneys.
She greeted me right at the door-step of the building and even helped me carry heavy boxes of documents. She is so consistent, thorough , knowledgeable that I was amazed .
She listened to me for hours and immediately offered help . She took my most horrible case mismanaged by another so-called Board Certified Real Estate lawyer who had made a complete mess of the case.She has been calling me and sending me prepared documents disregarding the amount of compensation she has received.
She is an amazing attorney, out to helping someone in dire need without any objective but to bring smile on one’s face.
May Almighty shower all the blessings on her?

I went in for a free consultation and it was more than just a consultation she was very considerate and compassionate and really wanted to help and gave a lot more than just a free consultation she should have been paid for all the time she spent with me but it was free, in the end the only reason I didn't hire her was I did not have the affordable start-up fee she needed but when I can afford her and if I ever need an attorney for anything I will come to her always now!

I was arrested, unfortunately, for the 3rd time in almost 18 years for theft. Each arrest being almost 6 years apart to the day. After meeting James he treated me with humility and grace despite my wrong doings. He truly tapped into why did I do what I did, what led me down this road, and was able to finally uncover something I was so badly needing to heal. I was in and out of the foster care system growing up with documented abuse for years- I was able to share this information with James and he connected me with the perfect therapist. I had hired two lawyers previously who never even cared to ask about my past- and had they I may have had a chance to heal sooner. Given my history and psychological explanation, and with the help of James and his knowledge, we were able to get my case DISMISSED. (Which is beyond rare given prior arrests) God led me to James and I will forever be in debt for his help not only with my case but to better my entire life. He has been an incredible light in the legal system. He is an outstanding lawyer, but an even better human being who is doing what he can to truly HELP people.

I hired Kelley for a felony theft case. My case effected my job, and I needed it cleared up quickly in order to return to work. Within 30 days of my first court date, Kelley had my case reduced to a misdemeanor deferred, so that I could return to work. Kelley worked diligently with the prosecutor and myself to get the matter resolved quickly. She has a great rapport with the DAs, and she kept me informed every step of the way. The day I hired her, I felt such relief because she has a true passion for helping her clients. Even after my case was closed, she still contacted me to make sure I understood all the requirements of my deferred adjudication and to help with anything else I may need. I would highly recommend Kelley for anyone who wants a lawyer that truly cares about the well being of their clients, extremely knowledgable about the court system and criminal laws, and has a great rapport with the DAs.

I had a felony theft case, and it effected my job. I needed the case dropped quickly in order to return to work and keep my position. I knew the minute I spoke to Kelley on the phone that I was in good hands. She attentively listened, asked questions, and showed empathy for my situation and genuine concern for my well being. Two days later we went to court for the first time and within one month my case was dropped to a misdemeanor deferred, so that I could return to work. Throughout the entire case Kelley communicated with the prosecutor and myself almost daily to get the situation resolved and keep my job in tact. Kelley has a great rapport with the prosecutors and an outstanding knowledge of the legal system. She had come highly recommended to me through a friend, and I couldn't have picked anyone else to handle this situation more effectively. She's knowledgable, thorough, diligent, and genuinely cares about her clients!

Kelley helped me with a theft case that was ridiculous anyway. Not only did she explain everything that was going on, what could happen, she also made me feel instantly upon our first meeting that everything was going to be fine. I had been so stressed about this issue and when I met with her she made me feel relieved. She is extremely knowledgeable of the criminal court system, responded immediately to any questions I had, and she researched the case to the tiniest detail. I was amazed at how skilled she was and my case has been dismissed completely. She told me in the beginning that was what she was going for but that there were other possibilities. I always knew what was going on and what she was going to do each time we went to court. If you want a skilled attorney who will keep you well informed and also make you feel like you are her only client (even though you know you are not her only client) then I recommend you giving Kelley a call immediately.

Sylvia did exactly what she said she was going to do with my case. She supported and believed me and made me feel incredibly safe to be in her hands after being a target. You don't think it can happen to you until it does. It doesn't take as much as you think for a liar to get someone to believe them to risk changing your life forever. Sylvia got my case dismissed and she shot me straight from the very beginning. Why you would not want to hire someone who has spent their career here in Harris county winning. My corporate attorney and one of my best friends recommended her and it was the right choice, the only choice to make.

Prosecutors came to her with pleas but the pleas wasn't options for us to take. She did her job as a great lawyer for 5 months and some days. Those 5months were long and stressful and Attorney Escobedo presented my case to a Grand Jury and my case was "NO BILLED" .SO MUCH STRESS LIFTED OFF MY SHOULDERS!!! I AM SOOO THANKFUL FOR HER AND HER WORK THAT WAS DONE. I WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND HER TO ANYONE. SHE'S VERY PROFESSIONAL RESPONDS IN A TIMELY MANNER AND WILL "GET THE JOB DONE"!!

I was referred to Charles Thompson to represent me in court after my arrest in West University, Houston, TX. My court date came much more quickly than I had expected, so I called him the day before I was expected in court, and he began representing me. He was not pushy, but quickly and fully informed me of the levity of my situation. His retainer was more reasonable than other quotes I received. He helped me build a positive defense from day 1. He was also familiar with the court of West University and several prosecuting attorneys, so he confidently explained the process that he would go through in trying to resolve my case. I checked in with him once per week while attending college out of state. He inquired with West U and its attorneys about my case, view dashboard camera footage, and communicated all findings to me. A few months later, my case was dismissed and I never had to return to Houston or personally appear in court.

I have had the pleasure of knowing Matt for the past fifteen years. We attended the same high school and law school where Matt excelled due to his hard-work, thorough preparation and unparalleled ability to critically analyze a problem and arrive at the best solution with the greatest efficiency. Matt has carried over to his criminal practice those same traits and characteristics that have made him so successful at such a young age. In addition to his outstanding academic and practical resume, Matt is extremely personable and caring. Matt truly values his clients' interests allowing him to provide the best representation possible. Matt's compassion for both the law and his clients, coupled with his critical thinking and systematic preparation, morph him into a true advocate. I recommend Matt Buckalew.

Mr. Overstreet helped my Fiancé fight a possession charge, with 2 priors. Montgomery county is one of the harshest counties on drug offenses. They were going to charge him as a habitual offender (facing 99), but Mr. Overstreet got it DISMISSED!! He was Very Professional, Accessible, and Confident about the case! He walked in the court room ready to get the case resolved, even when the prosecution tried to push back. I’m still in shock, but so very grateful! Highly Recommended for all Vets!

Mr. Overstreet was able to get my case dismissed in Houston, TX. I am an Army veteran, teacher, and professional. The last thing I needed was a charge looming over me which could have destroyed my career and everything I have worked for. I am so grateful to Mr. Overstreet and his diligent work to see this case through the end and out the door with a dismissal.

Joel Bennett is absolutely amazing!! When I first found out Mr. Bennett was assigned to my son’s case I immediately called the number I found on my paperwork, I thought it was pretty unique I was able to call his personal cell phone. I left Mr. Bennett a voicemail and not even an hour later he was returning my call. Anytime I would call or text Mr. Bennett he was always quick to respond back. I must say, I was extremely impressed with Mr. Bennett professionalism and never once did I feel lost or confused on what the next step would be during this stressful situation. Thank you Joel Bennett for your time and effort on my son case.
Sincerely,
A concerned mom

I was charged with a class 2 misdemeanor which I did not commit and Earl not only believed in me but fought diligently for my cause. Although the courts incompetency caused us to make four different trips Earl passionately stated my case each time until he wore them down and gained a dismissal of the charge against me. Earl gave me a cost up front and stuck to it with none of those so called incidental charges. If you need someone to plead your case this is the man!

What a Juvenile Law Lawyer Can Do for You
A juvenile law lawyer specializes in legal issues involving minors, including those facing criminal charges, child welfare matters, or status offenses (like truancy or curfew violations). Juvenile law lawyers aim to protect the rights of minors and advocate for rehabilitation rather than punishment in criminal cases. They also help families navigate child custody, abuse, neglect cases, and other legal matters involving children.
If your child is facing criminal charges, or you are involved in a child welfare case, a juvenile law lawyer can help protect your child’s rights and work toward the most favorable outcome.
When Should I Hire a Juvenile Law Lawyer?
You should consider hiring a juvenile law lawyer in the following situations where minors are involved in legal matters:
- Juvenile criminal charges: If your child is accused of a crime, such as theft, assault, or drug offenses, a juvenile lawyer can represent them in juvenile court, advocating for leniency and alternatives to detention.
- Delinquency proceedings: A lawyer can help navigate delinquency charges, defending your child’s rights and seeking rehabilitative outcomes like counseling, probation, or diversion programs instead of incarceration.
- Status offenses: If your child has committed a status offense, such as truancy, running away, or underage drinking, a lawyer can help you resolve these issues in juvenile court, often focusing on rehabilitation rather than punishment.
- School disciplinary issues: If your child is facing school suspensions, expulsions, or other disciplinary actions, a lawyer can help protect their educational rights and challenge any unfair or unlawful school policies.
- Child protective services (CPS) investigations: If your family is being investigated by CPS for alleged abuse, neglect, or dependency, a lawyer can represent you and protect your child’s rights throughout the investigation.
- Custody disputes: A lawyer can help in cases involving child custody or guardianship disputes, ensuring the child’s best interests are prioritized and advocating for the child’s rights.
- Emancipation: If your child seeks legal emancipation from their parents or guardians, a lawyer can assist in navigating the legal process and help the child understand their rights and responsibilities.
Hiring a lawyer early in the legal process ensures that your child’s rights are protected and that the best possible outcomes are pursued.
What Does a Juvenile Law Lawyer Do?
A juvenile law lawyer provides various services to help minors and their families navigate the legal system. Their responsibilities often include:
- Representing minors in court: A lawyer will represent your child in juvenile court, advocating for their rights and seeking rehabilitative outcomes rather than punitive measures.
- Filing motions and legal paperwork: The lawyer handles all necessary legal filings, including petitions, responses, and motions to dismiss charges or suppress evidence.
- Negotiating with prosecutors: In some cases, a lawyer can negotiate plea deals or diversion programs that prevent the child from having a permanent criminal record or serving time in detention.
- Advising on rehabilitation programs: Juvenile law lawyers often focus on alternatives to incarceration, such as counseling, community service, or probation, helping minors avoid long-term legal consequences.
- Handling CPS and child welfare cases: If your family is involved in a CPS investigation or child welfare case, the lawyer can advocate for your child’s safety and well-being, ensuring that their rights are upheld.
- Defending minors against school discipline: A lawyer can help challenge unfair or excessive disciplinary actions taken by schools, ensuring that your child’s educational rights are protected.
- Advising families on legal options: A lawyer will explain the juvenile legal process to families, offering advice on the best legal strategies and what to expect during the case.
How Are Juvenile Law Lawyers Paid?
Juvenile law lawyers typically charge for their services based on the complexity of the case and the time involved. Common payment structures include:
- Hourly rate: Many juvenile law lawyers charge by the hour, with rates ranging from $150 to $500 or more, depending on the lawyer’s experience and location.
- Flat fee: For simpler cases, such as status offenses or school disciplinary hearings, a lawyer may charge a flat fee that covers all legal services related to the case.
- Retainer: In more complex cases, such as defending against serious criminal charges or handling a long-term CPS investigation, a lawyer may require a retainer, which is an upfront payment billed against as they work on the case.
- Sliding scale or pro bono services: Some juvenile law lawyers offer sliding scale fees based on income or may provide pro bono (free) services for families who cannot afford to pay full legal fees, especially in cases involving child welfare or delinquency.
Discuss the lawyer’s fee structure during your consultation to understand the total cost and payment options.

Top Questions to Ask a Juvenile Law Lawyer
Before hiring a juvenile law lawyer, it’s important to ask key questions to ensure they have the experience and expertise to handle your child’s case effectively. Key questions to ask include:
-
What experience do you have with juvenile law cases?
Make sure the lawyer has handled cases similar to yours, whether it’s juvenile delinquency, child custody, or CPS investigations. -
How do you charge for your services?
Clarify whether the lawyer charges by the hour, offers flat fees, or requires a retainer. Ask for a detailed estimate of the total cost. -
What is the likelihood of success in my child’s case?
Ask the lawyer for an honest assessment of the case, including potential challenges and likely outcomes. -
How long will the process take?
Juvenile cases can vary in duration, so ask the lawyer how long they expect the process to last and what factors might affect the timeline. -
Will you personally handle my child’s case?
In larger firms, junior attorneys or paralegals may handle parts of the case. Make sure you know who will be managing the case and representing your child in court. -
What rights does my child have?
Ask the lawyer to explain your child’s legal rights, including their rights during police questioning, school disciplinary actions, and court proceedings.
How to Check the Credibility of a Juvenile Law Lawyer
To ensure you are hiring a reputable juvenile law lawyer, take the following steps to verify their credentials and experience:
- Verify their bar status: Check with your state bar association to confirm that the lawyer is licensed to practice law and has no history of disciplinary actions.
- Look for juvenile law experience: Review the lawyer’s website or professional profile to ensure they specialize in juvenile law and have successfully handled cases similar to yours.
- Read client reviews and testimonials: Look for client reviews on platforms like Avvo, Martindale-Hubbell, or Google to see what previous clients have said about the lawyer’s professionalism and success rate in juvenile cases.
- Ask for references: A reputable lawyer should be able to provide references from past clients who have worked with them on juvenile law matters.
- Check for certifications or memberships: Look for memberships in organizations like the National Juvenile Defender Center (NJDC) or certifications in juvenile law, which can indicate a lawyer’s dedication to representing minors.
What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?
To get the most out of your first consultation with a juvenile law lawyer, it’s important to come prepared with relevant documents and information. Here’s what you should bring:
- Court documents: Bring any legal documents related to your child’s case, such as summons, complaints, or court orders.
- School records: Provide any relevant school records, including disciplinary reports, attendance records, and communications from school officials.
- CPS or investigation reports: If your case involves child welfare, bring any reports or documentation from CPS or other investigating agencies.
- Timeline of events: Prepare a detailed timeline of events related to your child’s legal issue, including interactions with authorities or school officials.
- Questions for the lawyer: Write down any questions about the legal process, your child’s rights, and potential outcomes for the case.
Being well-prepared will help the lawyer assess your child’s situation more effectively and provide the best possible legal advice tailored to your needs.
