I have extensively studied Texas criminal law and know how to target weaknesses in police investigations and the prosecution’s argument. My goal is to obtain a dismissal for every clients’ case. When this is not possible, I run through possible outcomes with my clients and help them decide on a strategy that best aligns with their goals. I spare no effort when fighting for the best possible outcome for my clients.

I focus 100% of my practice on criminal defense, particularly in Harris County and the surrounding counties of Texas.
