I have been practicing law since 1981, having started at Vinson & Elkins right out of law school at the University of Texas.  I am a very active trial lawyer, having tried over 350 cases to jury verdict, a number that real trial lawyers would recognize as meaningful.  I'm married to Colleen Cullen Akers, the daughter of a legendary trial lawyer, Dick Cullen.  I have three wonderful children, one of whom is a criminal defense lawyer who is already becoming well regarded among his peers.  We spend a great deal of our spare time with church and charitable activities through various groups, but mostly through the Order of Malta, a holy order of the Catholic Church in which I am a Knight.

I have been practicing law for over 29 years since being licensed in May 1985.  I worked for several law firms for 12 years.  I did trial work for every law firm I worked for in both federal, state district, and county courts at law in Harris, Brazoria, Fort Bend, and Liberty Counties in Texas.  In 1997, I was hired as an Assistant General Counsel for the Houston Independent School District, and I primarily was responsible for assisting the Human Resources Department with employment issues and for terminating certified personnel on written contracts.  I did this for 16 years until I left the District in March of 2013..

I have been practicing law for over 14 years exclusivley in the area of personal injury.  I began my career representing the insurance industry in relation to all types of accident from premises liability, auto collision cases and medical malpractice.  After learning the defense side of these types of cases for 4 years, I changed my practice to helping those individuals injured as a result of the negligence of others and have been doing so for the past 10 years..

I have been a criminal defense lawyer my entire career.  I have spent my entire adult life fighting for my clients' rights. For the past 38 years I have defended people accused of crimes ranging from murder to drug conspiracies.  I understand that clients accused of a crime want their case dismissed and they want to get back to their lives.  I follow a simple philosophy.  If a man is not guilty he should plead not guilty and fight for his liberty.  It is my job to do everything I can to save my clients' liberty.

I grew up in North East Texas before coming to Houston to study law. After graduating from law school I began to practice law on my own and have since had the opportunity to help hundreds of clients deal with personal injury matters of all kinds. I truly enjoy what I do.

I grew up in Houston and attended Memorial High School before joining the United States Marine Corps. While enlisted I received my bachelor’s degree from Chapman University in California. After being Honorably Discharged, I returned to Houston and began working in the oil and gas industry. I went on to earn a master’s in business administration and Juris Doctorate at the University of Houston.. Over the past decade, I have aggressively represented clients injured through the negligence of others. My practice focuses on personal injury, including transportation and construction litigation. I am currently licensed to appear in all courts in Texas and before the United States District Courts for the Southern and Eastern Districts of Texas.

I graduated from Concordia University at Austin with a Bachelor of Arts in kinesiology.   I went on to attend the Thurgood Marshall School of Law, where I participated in moot court activities.  Soon after graduation, the Intense Trial Advocacy program at the University of Notre Dame Law School invited me to participate, which taught me invaluable trial skills and techniques. I have since been honored with an invitation from Notre Dame to assist in the very same program, and look forward to giving back to an initiative in which I strongly support.. During the California-based American Board of Trial Advocates Conference, I served as a witness in an ABOTA seminar. This was a huge honor as only the best of the best attorneys receive invitations to participate in this prestigious event.. In my first year of practice, I played an integral role in obtaining 18 million dollars in settlements for our firm which includes two wrongful death claims and four premises liability claims.. In the summer of 2014, I was honored with an invitation to attend the ABOTA National Trial College, in which I successfully attended and completed..

The practice of law is all about issues that people face in their business and personal lives and prefer to work with their attorney on a one-on-one basis. I take a hands-on approach to the practice of law, personally meeting with you, and working hard to protect your interests.

I focus exclusively on helping clients [individuals & businesses] resolve their consumer protection matters.

I focus 100% of my practice on criminal defense, particularly in Harris County and the surrounding counties of Texas. Criminal defense is a field of law that is particularly interesting to me because of its significance to the everyday life of United States citizens. Criminal defense lawyers represent the blockade between an encroaching government and the privacy of the people living under its rule. I take pride in defending the rights and liberties of my fellow Texans, and I will stand firm and aggressive in the face of those who seek to encroach upon those rights.

I firmly believe in defending our constitutional rights. I am a Texan through and through. Please let me fight for you.

I fight for  my clients.
