Criminal Defense

People can be arrested in South Texas for any alleged violation of state or federal law. When a person is charged with a criminal offense, it is extremely important to understand all of the possible consequences of a conviction.

Prosecutors must prove the guilt of alleged offenders beyond a reasonable doubt—the highest possible legal standard. If jurors have any reason to doubt that people committed the crimes they were charged with, the jury must find such individuals not guilty.
