Teakell began his career as an Assistant District Attorney and worked as a Senior Trial Counsel for the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission where he prosecuted civil enforcement actions of fraudulent schemes in White Collar cases.
Before going into criminal defense Mr. Teakell spent over 12 years in the U.S. Attorney’s Office as a federal prosecutor, most of which at the Northern District of Texas where he was designated as a bank fraud prosecutor.

Today Mr. Teakell represents defendants in criminal cases throughout the State of Texas in federal and state courts, as well as cases in federal courts throughout the United States including Puerto Rico. As a criminal defense attorney and trial lawyer, Mr. Teakell has successfully defended those charged with violent crimes, drug manufacturing and distribution, and white-collar crimes including money laundering, bank fraud, securities fraud, and violations of federal securities law.
