Frequently Asked Questions
Should I talk to police without a lawyer?
No. You have the right to remain silent and the right to an attorney. Anything you say can be used against you. Politely decline to answer questions and immediately contact a criminal defense attorney before speaking with law enforcement.
What is the difference between a felony and a misdemeanor in Texas?
Felonies are more serious crimes punishable by more than one year in state prison and can result in significant fines. Misdemeanors are less serious, punishable by up to one year in county jail. Felonies carry more severe long-term consequences including voting rights and employment restrictions.
How much does a criminal defense attorney cost in Dallas?
Criminal defense attorney fees vary based on charge severity and case complexity. Misdemeanor cases typically cost less than felony cases. We offer transparent pricing and payment plans. Contact us at (214) 727-8160 for a confidential consultation about your case.
Can I get a DWI dismissed in Texas?
DWI charges may be reduced or dismissed based on factors like improper stop, flawed sobriety tests, procedural errors, or insufficient evidence. An experienced DWI attorney can evaluate your case, challenge evidence, and pursue favorable outcomes including dismissal, reduction, or acquittal.
What happens at my first court appearance?
Your first appearance (arraignment) is where you hear the charges, enter a plea, and the judge sets bail conditions. Having an attorney present is crucial to protect your rights, negotiate bail, and begin building your defense strategy. Never go to court alone for criminal charges.
