I have been practicing Family and Criminal law in the Houston and San Antonio areas for over 20 years. This experience has given me an opportunity to help individuals with difficulties in marriage and post-marriage. I like being part of the solution to people's problems in a way that I believe is often beneficial to both sides. I have extensive trial experience in both family and criminal law. As to my position as an advocate in criminal courts, I consider myself aggressive and yet very strategic in preparing a defense. Although I believe in the system of presumed innocent until found guilty, the reality is that presumption is only effective as the attorney who accepts the responsibility of being the buffer between the government and the client. I take my role as each client's attorney as something that is of enormous responsibility, and I treat each client as if they were my only client.
