After graduating Law School, I served as an Assistant District Attorney in Houston, Texas, for 3 1/2 years where I learned how to try lawsuits. I prosecuted everything from misdemeanors to murders.  Leaving the DA's office, I went into private practice handling most everything that came in the door.. In 1989, I was certified in two areas by the Texas Board of Legal Specialization-- Family Law and Civil Trial Law. I'm very proud of these certifications.  The qualifications are restrictive and the exams were difficult.  I've maintained these certifications by being re-certified every 5 years.. My proudest accomplishments are as a husband for 40 years to my best friend, father to three children and grandfather to three wonderful little girls.

Whether you hire Bill Stradley or another lawyer, he wants you to carefully look at their actual experience/credentials and not ratings or advertisements. Competent lawyering at an early stage is critical to the best result possible.. The Texas Board of Legal Specialization (TBLS) was created by the Supreme Court of Texas in 1974 as a way to help consumers identify attorneys who are specialists in different areas of the law. The TBLS is the only organization authorized to perform this service to Texas consumers.. There are roughly 70,000 lawyers in Texas, but being a generalist may not prepare a lawyer to handle a specific area of the law. To date, there are roughly 150 Board Certified Criminal lawyers in Houston. Some of those are prosecutors and do not defend individuals.. Are there excellent Texas criminal defense lawyers who are not Board Certified? Definitely. But often it is difficult, especially for a non-attorney to identify who they are.. Bill knows that the process of hiring a lawyer can add stress to an already stressful situation. He can't get rid of that anxiety, but he wants you to feel at ease giving him a call. Please call him today to do a brief assessment of your situation on the phone and set up a meeting to discuss it further.. If your situation isn't the kind he handles, or he knows a better lawyer for your matter, he can try to steer you in the right direction. Often, the people unhappy with their lawyers are ones who did not get an ideal fit for their personality or their particular case. Bill wants you to be happy that you chose him as your lawyer.. Whoever you hire, please do not delay. Often hiring experienced, competent counsel right away, even at the accusation stage pre-arrest, can result in a better outcome.
