I may look familiar to you.  If you have seen me in action, you already know that what you see is what you get with me.   I am Direct, Aggressive, Determined, Persistent and fully intend to prevail over the State and all of its paraphernalia, quasi-scientific bluff and supposition, badges of office and self-riteousness.  What the Prosecutors tend to forget is a) there are two sides to every story and b) their witnesses are flawed, mortal human beings - just as apt to misinterpret, misunderstand, and to project their own beliefs and predispositions into their testimony as anyone else who will come before the jury
 
REMEMBER:  1.  DON'T SAY ANYTHING!!!
to the Police when they stop and question you, except your name and address and, (see below) "I want to speak to my attorney", as soon as you no longer feel free to leave the officer's presence.  Keep saying you want your attorney.
2.  NEVER GRANT PERMISSION to search (you never know who left what in your vehicle)
3.  NEVER ADMIT WRONG DOING, and
4. NEVER give any answer at all to the question: "Is there a reason WHY YOU WERE SPEEDING?"  Anything you say . . . except: " I wasn't" . . . is admitting speeding and saying why you were doing it.  You can say "I wasn't" and still be safe.  They will take down anything else you say and try to use it against you in Court.
5.  DON'T BLOW!! if you are stopped and have had ANYTHING to drink.  We recommend not doing the field sobriety tests as well.  Keep your mouth shut.  Don't admit having anything to drink.  "Anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law."  They aren't joking when they say that.
6.  Ask for your attorney (us!) and keep asking until we arrive.
7.  As soon as the lights on the Patrol Car are turned back off, and you are free to leave, your destination just became our office.  Waiting until the last possible moment ties our hands, puts us on the defensive, and will cost you more money.   We have a $50.00 late fee if you bring us a citation within 2 business days of the appearance date. 
 
 
 
                                       
 

We are eager to help you.  You need only call us or send an e-mail.  We will respond promptly.
We have provided top notch criminal defense to our clients for 19 years.  In the past 5 years, we have expanded into the roles of Lobbyist and of General Criminal Defense from our "traffic ticket roots".  We still handle tickets, especially those received by CDL holders, which must be paid or tried (we prefer "tried"! Don't you?). 
We go to trial.  That is what we specialize in, and what we are best at.  Of Course we try for dismissals - in ways a lot of other firms haven't thought of - but that is largely a matter of chance.  We don't claim credit for good luck.  We do claim credit for knowing the law, and being effective in the Courtroom. We can go the the City of Houston if we must, but it is a pit that one should avoid, if possible.  If you have been there lately, you know exactly what I mean.  Accordingly, we charge more than some firms who have little or no intention of actually going to trial there but rather only intend to "work out a deal" or "get you a reduced, plea-bargained fine amount.", and zip off to their next, overloaded, Court.  That just "isn't us".
 
CDL holders' cases are all supposed to be filed in Harris County Justice Precinct 6.  These cases take f-o-r-e-v-e-r  to get set for trial, and in 6-2 (Rodrigquez) may require several trips to Court to actually get a trial, for moving violations in particular.  Please bear that in mind; that is not our fault, it is a decision the County Commissioners imposed over our objections and it is not necessarily the worst thing in the world.  Accusations of moving violations (speeding, running stop sign, fail to signal lane change etc.) are NOT on your driving record, DAC, MVR, or your insurance unless or until you get convicted - precisely what we strive to avoid - and you can't be convicted if you haven't been to court.  So waiting is not a terrible thing. 
YOU CAN hurry up and MAKE SURE IT DOES GO ON YOUR RECORD BY PAYING IT - but we sure don't recommend it! INSTEAD, we recommend FIGHTing  IT -  with our help.  
 
The MVR and DAC cannot be "cleaned up".   Whoever is telling you they can is selling snake oil, or engaging in criminal activity.  Their sole reason for existence is to document convictionsThey will clean themselves up if you're around long enough, just like your driving record.  The smart play is to keep your record clean in the first place.  THAT IS WHY WE ARE HERE.   The only thing that we should be able to do is to remove incorrect, or misattributed entries.  If, for instance,  you paid a loose lug nut, and they booked it as a speeding conviction, we can likely help you.   By contrast, if you get convicted of speeding and just want it gone . . . uh-uhNobody can legally remove a valid conviction.  Maybe you should call US next one you get, right?!?
 
If you hold a regular Class C License and have a ticket from Harris County Precincts 4-1 (Judge Adams) or 4-2 (Judge Lawrence), or Precinct 5-1 (Ridgway) or 5-2 (Yeoman), or Humble, Jersey Village, Katy, the Memorial Villages, and Tomball, especially, give us a call.
