About James

I prepare every case as if it will be tried.

I prepare every case as if a jury will hear it. Prosecutors learn that early, and it changes how they value your case. When the State knows the alternative to a fair offer is a trial it could lose, the conversation changes.

Assault Family Violence makes up the largest block of my record. I have dismissed nearly 200 of these cases.

A family violence charge carries consequences that reach into gun rights, custody, immigration, and employment—which is why I work to end these cases early, before they cause damage that cannot be undone.

Felony cases follow the same pattern. Three aggravated assault with a deadly weapon cases, dismissed. Four first-degree MAN/DEL charges, dismissed after I set the case for trial. A second-degree MAN/DEL dismissed on a 508 motion. A sexual assault no-billed by the grand jury. Another sexual assault resolved as a misdemeanor with no sex offender registration. A state-jail felony theft dismissed, along with Class A and B misdemeanor thefts.

I have also won not-guilty verdicts at trial in DWI cases and won dismissals and reductions in Collin, Dallas, and Denton counties, reducing others below a DWI conviction entirely.

People hire me because one case threatens something they built: a clean record, a license, a career, a family.

The results below are a sample of that work.

Past results do not guarantee future outcomes. Every case depends on its own facts.

Free Consultation

The call is free. Waiting is not.

Evidence goes stale, witnesses move, and deadlines pass whether you have hired a lawyer or not. The earlier we start, the more we can do.
