Firm Information

Overview

At Thornton Criminal Defense, PLLC, we are proudly headquartered in San Antonio, Texas, with a branch office in Pleasanton. Under the leadership of board-certified criminal defense attorney Brad Thornton, our firm concentrates exclusively on criminal law and DWI defense. Drawing on Brad’s background as a former chief prosecutor, we have an insider’s understanding of prosecutorial strategies and court procedures throughout South Texas.

When you face a DWI charge, our team takes immediate action to scrutinize every piece of evidence, from breathalyzer calibration records to field sobriety test protocols. We challenge unreliable results, uncover procedural mistakes, and explore every avenue for reduced charges or case dismissals. Our intimate knowledge of Texas DWI statutes and local court customs empowers us to negotiate favorable outcomes that protect your driving privileges, livelihood, and reputation.

Beyond DWI matters, we represent clients in a full spectrum of criminal cases, ranging from misdemeanors to serious felonies such as assault, drug offenses and homicide. With more than a decade of practice and over one hundred jury trials under our belts, we craft aggressive, tailored defense strategies designed to minimize or eliminate penalties, including license suspensions, fines, probation or incarceration.

Our deep roots in Bexar County and neighboring jurisdictions – Comal, Guadalupe, Kendall, Medina, Karnes, Wilson, Atascosa and Hays counties – afford us a sophisticated grasp of local judicial nuances. We leverage these insights to develop arguments that resonate with judges and juries alike, striving always to secure the best possible resolution for our clients.

Client satisfaction is paramount. We are honored by our five-star Google reviews and recognition among the Top 100 National Trial Lawyers. Our transparent, flat-fee pricing model ensures you receive top-tier representation without worrying about escalating legal bills. Contact us today for a free and confidential consultation. Let our dedicated team at Thornton Criminal Defense, PLLC, stand by your side and fight to protect your rights and future.
