The answer is almost always YES! Good cases are lost because people think things like: "I am in the right", "Everyone knows he did it", "I have witnesses". None of these things matter if you don't know how to get them in front of the Court, Judge, or Jury. Almost all Courts hold you to the same standard of knowledge of the laws and the rules as professional attorneys. This means that being right doesn't really matter.. This means even though everyone else knows he did it, you may not be able to tell the judge what everyone knows. And lastly, this means that even with witnesses you have to know how to have them properly found, noticed, served, subpoenaed, and professed to the opposing counsel in the proper time as required by law. It doesn't matter if it is criminal, civil, family, contract, whatever, the rules apply. Unless you are in a small claims or JP court, you need an attorney, Even then you have the advantage if you have an attorney. The old adage I use around my office when asked this question is "You can be the smartest, wisest, well known, good looking, and well read person in the world, but when going to Court without a lawyer you are the equivalent of the smartest, wisest, well known, good looking, and well read Roman slave or criminal in the ancient Coliseum where you are basically naked and unarmed and everyone else is either a wild animal or a well armored and well armed Gladiator." You have the same chances of survival in both situations. I hope this short article brought the point home. Good luck and God Bless. Bert Steinmann.

Tracy McNeill Pullan graduated from the University of Texas, Austin in 1999 with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Anthropology. Following her experiences working and traveling abroad, she made a life-changing decision to continue her family's long-standing tradition of becoming a lawyer. Tracy attended the University of Houston Law Center, where she felt a strong calling to public service, much like her great grandfather Frank B. Potter, who served as the U.S. Attorney for the Northern District of Texas. Tracy joined the Montgomery County District Attorney's Office as an Assistant District Attorney (ADA). During her time as an ADA, Tracy gained valuable insights into the inner workings of the Montgomery County criminal justice system, serving in various divisions such as Justice of the Peace, Misdemeanor, and Felony. She eventually became the Chief of the Misdemeanor Division, where she managed and trained prosecutors in their respective courts, with a specific focus on Driving While Intoxicated cases. Tracy also worked closely with law enforcement, providing training in the field. As a Prosecutor, Tracy handled more than 50 trials, ranging from Capital Murder to Class C Misdemeanors. In addition, she reviewed and investigated numerous cases on behalf of the State of Texas. After six years of dedicated service, Tracy left the office with the title of Division Chief. Today, Tracy is a founding partner of Pullan & Young, P.L.L.C., where she defends clients facing a wide range of criminal offenses, including DWIs and Aggravated Assaults. She is committed to protecting falsely accused individuals from being wrongly registered as sex offenders, and she tirelessly fights to ensure that young clients are not burdened with a permanent criminal record. Regardless of the type of case, Tracy vigorously defends her clients, drawing on her training and experience as a Prosecutor and leveraging her strong relationships with Judges and Prosecutors. Tracy's accomplishments as an attorney are a testament to her strong work ethic, her ability to simplify complex issues, and her unwavering belief in justice.
