Practice Areas: Criminal Defense
I am a criminal defense lawyer. I became a lawyer for the sole purpose of helping individuals through the complex labyrinth known as the American legal system.. I love the legal profession and I am devoted to providing quality legal representation to my clients.. As an attorney, I understand that there are always two sides to every story, and I know that each client is a person with their own life story. I try to develop deep, meaningful relationships with each of my clients. I listen carefully to what they tell me because I want to understand their perspective so that I can present their case in the best way.. In addition to representing retained clients, I also serve as assigned counsel in Austin and Travis County through the Capital Area Private Defender Service, or CAPDS. I believe that everyone who is charged with a crime deserves quality representation, regardless of his or her personal wealth. My court appointed clients know that they are obtaining the same quality of representation that I would provide to any of my retained you hire me to be your attorney, you can be confident that I will bring aggressive advocacy to your case. I am not afraid to challenge the evidence and fight for you.. They have to go through me to get to you.
