Paul Goeke is licensed to practice in State and Federal Court. He is a Board Certified Criminal Law Specialist. To achieve this qualification, a lawyer must devote a significant part of his practice to Criminal Law for a minimum of five (5) years and then pass a special law examination on Texas Criminal Law. Mr Goeke's law career has been ENTIRELY devoted to criminal law. Having begun his career as an Assistant District Attorney with the Bexar County District Attorney's Office, he has experience "on both sides of the docket". This provides a unique and highly valuable insight into the trial of criminal cases as it helps a lawyer to recognize the strengths and weaknesses of the State's case. Modern criminal cases rely heavily on forensic sciences and the application of science in the courtroom. Mr.Goeke has a Bachelor's Degree in Psychology with a Minor in the Physical and Biological sciences. He has studied extensively in medicine and the educational background makes him especially qualified to defend individual accused of crimes ranging from Capital Murder, Intoxication Manslaughter/Assault, Sexual Assault to Driving While Intoxicated.. All criminal defense cases are challenging. Defending an individual accused and prosecuted by the state, the police, all of the forces of government, this requires considerable training and experience. Many people wonder "Why would a lawyer who is qualified to handle capital murder or aggravated sexual assault cases also handle misdemeanor DWI cases?" The fact of the matter is that DWIs can be some of the most complex and difficult cases that exist. Successfully defending a DWI case requires an in depth understanding of science, law and human nature. DWI also accounts for the greatest number of actual innocent people charged with a crime. Every good lawyer enjoys a challenge and every good lawyer enjoys seeing innocent people acquitted (found not guilty) by juries. Mr. Goeke will represent you as an individual and treat your case as the most important case there is--because IT IS!  Conviction for ANY crime can have a long term negative impact on you.
