A Unique Advantage

As a former Assistant District Attorney and Felony Prosecutor for Harris County, I know the ropes and I can lead you through the process, protect your rights, zealously represent your case and obtain truly remarkable results.

While working at the District Attorney’s office, I handled various crimes on both the misdemeanor and felony level, where I gained valuable trial experience.
