MISDEMEANORS & FELONIES
Misdemeanor & Felony Defense in Texas

Misdemeanors in Texas
Misdemeanors might not carry the same penalties as felonies, but they can still leave a permanent mark on your life. Convictions can mean jail time, steep fines, loss of professional licenses, loss of legal immigration status and a criminal record that shows up in every background check for the rest of your life.
Common misdemeanor charges we defend include:
- DWI (1st & 2nd offense)
- Possession of a Controlled Substance.
- Evading or Resisting Arrest.
- Theft or shoplifting
- Assault (simple assault or family violence)
- Burglary of vehicle

- Intoxication Manslaughter
