Common questions
What should I do if a family member was just arrested in Texas?
Stay calm and call a lawyer. Do not discuss the facts on jail phones, which are usually recorded. Write down the person's full name, date of birth, the county and the charge if you know it. The person must be brought before a magistrate without unnecessary delay and no later than 48 hours after arrest. Bail depends on the law and the case; this is not a deadline for automatic release.
Will I lose my license after a DWI arrest in Texas?
Possibly. If you refused or failed a breath or blood test, the officer usually serves a notice of suspension. You have 15 days from that notice to request an ALR hearing, or the suspension starts automatically on day 40.
How much does a criminal defense lawyer cost in Texas?
The consultation is free. Fees depend on the charge, the county and how far the case goes, and we tell you the fee before you hire us, with no surprises later. Ask on the first call and we will give you a number.
Is the first consultation free?
Yes. Criminal defense consultations are free.
