I am committed to protecting your rights. I'm an experienced lawyer, former prosecutor, and former peace officer. I've handled cases from the lowest level trial courts to the United States Supreme Court. Even though my cases can be complex, however, my clients appreciate the way I can explain them in an easy to understand manner. 

      I’ve handled hundreds of criminal cases at the trial level as well as over 300 criminal cases on appeal or in other post-conviction areas (habeas writs, DNA actions, etc.). I’ve argued cases before the Texas Supreme Court’s criminal branch as both a prosecutor and a defense lawyer. I’ve also handled cases in federal appellate courts and, twice, in the United States Supreme Court. These are all criminal cases.   

      I helped lead a legislative review committee for criminal law bills and explained those bills to Texas legislators--many of whom had little criminal experience. I was also selected by the Texas Bar president to sit on the State Bar committee for the Rules of Evidence. I served in that capacity for years, helping to review and improve our Texas Rules of Evidence. 

      In 2018 I expanded my practice into the area of personal injury. Too many of my clients had been injured by reckless drivers or unsafe job conditions. Given that most civil attorneys have very little courtroom experience, I found that the transition helped my clients enormously.

      Now I bring this knowledge and experience to people like you, relentlessly representing clients in all courts and on all types of criminal charges and personal injury cases.
