| Former Assistant District Attorney
"Whether you’ve just been arrested for your first DUI or your fifth, I can help. Even though it may seem like the end of the world, I will get you through this. Bexar County has some of the toughest DUI and DWI laws in the country, but you can feel confident in knowing that I have gone to trial over one hundred times and negotiated countless plea bargains. As my client you will feel the weight on your back lift as I step in and take over your case. I will give you my personal email address and cell phone number to contact me after hours if you have a question about your case. I know that this is quite possibly the most difficult and embarrassing situation you have ever found yourself in. I will stand by you and fight for you. That is what I do, and I love doing it."
