State Crimes
Texas State Crimes Defense Lawyers
Violent Crimes · Sex Crimes · Drug Crimes · Felonies · Misdemeanors
The vast majority of criminal investigations and charges result from alleged violations of state law rather than federal law. The variety and complexity of the charges require a criminal defense attorney who has extensive knowledge of both criminal law and the operations of the District Attorney's office.
In Texas, District Attorneys have great discretion to determine which allegations will be investigated and what charges will be filed. Under the leadership of former prosecutor Terry W. Yates, our firm can use this fact to the advantage of our clients. We know how prosecutors approach investigations, and can work to protect your rights and interests before charges are filed. To discuss the specifics of your case during a free consultation, please contact the Houston law office of Terry W. Yates today.
