introduction
Only 11 attorneys are Board Certified in Criminal Law & Juvenile Law in the State of Texas. I am the only Board Certified Criminal Law & Juvenile Law attorney in Tarrant County.
There are only three reasons why an attorney would not be Board Certified.
- He lacks the effort necessary to master the intricacies of Texas criminal law and procedures.
- He doesn’t posses the intelligence required to pass the criminal certification test.
- He doesn’t possess the legal or trial experience required to qualify to sit for the Criminal Board Certification examination.
Under any of these circumstances, why would you want an attorney such as this to represent you?
I have spent my whole career defending individuals accused of criminal or juvenile offenses. I am the author of the book Ignorance of the Law is No Excuse 3rd Edition. I have defended over 7,500 and have tried in excess of 300 criminal and juvenile law cases as a defense attorney.
My experience is from the position of a defense attorney and only a defense attorney. I have spent my whole career defending individuals accused of criminal or juvenile offenses. I have defended over 7,500 and have tried in excess of 300 criminal and juvenile law cases as a defense attorney.
