An assault or family violence allegation can affect your freedom, your family, and your reputation.

Together, we will build a defense focused on your individual circumstances.
Defense against allegations of intentionally, knowingly, or recklessly causing bodily injury to another person.
Representation in cases involving spouses, dating partners, relatives, and members of the same household.
Defense against accusations involving threats of imminent injury or offensive physical contact.

Every case is different. These answers provide general information about assault and family violence charges in Texas.
No individual can personally dismiss a criminal charge. After an arrest, the prosecutor decides whether the case will continue. An alleged victim’s wishes may be considered, but a request not to prosecute does not automatically end the case.
A family violence allegation generally involves someone related by family, marriage, a dating relationship, or membership in the same household. A family violence finding can have consequences beyond the immediate case, including effects on firearm rights and future criminal charges.
Follow every bond condition, protective order, and no-contact restriction. Preserve relevant texts, photographs, videos, and witness information. Avoid discussing the allegations on social media, and speak with a criminal defense attorney as soon as possible.
Tell me what happened, and I’ll help you understand the charges and your next steps.
