I began my legal career in San Antonio representing citizens accused as well as business owners in civil manners. Following that, I served as Assistant District Attorney of Lubbock County for nearly four years. For the past 8 years, I served as Assistant District Attorney for Travis County.
Throughout my career as a prosecutor, I've tried cases to a jury from a traffic violation to a capital murder and many crimes in between. I proudly represented the community of Austin in the prosecution of the SXSW capital murder trial and the Tarrytown Murder. It is now time to use my trial and litigation experience to serve you and other citizens in the best possible way.
This Law Firm was established in January 2018. It is my mission to provide the highest quality representation to ease the pain and stress of being involved in the legal system. I do this by combining first-class customer attention with experienced and tested litigation skills.
FIRST-CLASS CUSTOMER ATTENTION
It is my mission to serve you in the best possible manner by zealously advocating on your behalf. This means having an understanding of the client's position and the empathy for why they are seeking representation. Through that empathy, you will always be able to reach me with any questions or concerns you have any time of day.
EXPERIENCE/TESTED LITIGATION SKILLS
Through the years of practicing, I've had the opportunity to carry many cases from its inception all the way through to trial which includes pre-trial hearings, negotiations, jury selection and closing arguments. This experience is vital so that I can provide you with proper guidance as to the potential results and likely risks.

How do I choose a lawyer?
Consider the following:
- Comfort Level
- - Are you comfortable telling the lawyer personal information? Does the lawyer seem interested in solving your problem?
- Credentials
- - How long has the lawyer been in practice? Has the lawyer worked on other cases similar to yours?
- Cost
- - How are the lawyer's fees structured - hourly or flat fee? Can the lawyer estimate the cost of your case?
- City
- - Is the lawyer's office conveniently located?
Not sure what questions to ask a lawyer?
Here are a few to get you started:
- How long have you been in practice?
- How many cases like mine have you handled?
- How often do you settle cases out of court?
- What are your fees and costs?
- What are the next steps?
Want to check lawyer discipline?
It is always a good idea to research your lawyer prior to hiring. Every state has a disciplinary organization that monitors attorneys, their licenses, and consumer complaints. By researching lawyer discipline you can:
- Ensure the attorney is currently licensed to practice in your state
- Gain an understanding of his or her historical disciplinary record, if any.
- Determine the seriousness of complaints/issues which could range from late bar fees to more serious issues requiring disciplinary action.
