I am proud to be part of the team at Houston & Alexander. I have been practicing criminal defense since 2010. For almost five years prior to joining Houston & Alexander, I worked at the Public Defender’s Office, where I handled hundreds of the most difficult cases, from the first court date all the way through appeal. During this time I had major successes in trials and motion hearings. I also successfully argued at the Court of Criminal Appeals, getting two separate murder convictions reversed.

Exceptional Professionalism and Care!
I hired Mr. Underwood to represent me for a DUI I was charged with. They offered me a great discontent rate that was a far better then the others I looked at. Communication was never a problem and I was always clear on what was going on with the case though there app. They were all very respectful...

Absolutely outstanding service.
Overall great experience with Houston & Alexander, PLLC. My fiance had some old warrants with an additional theft charge. She was looking at 2 years in prison. Jay planned us a date for her to turn herself in and plead her case to the judge. He assured us a good outcome the whole time and he kept his...

A lawyer that gets results
Following the passing of my father and grandmother, I found myself developing panic attacks. One night I went out for a drink and one of my attacks hit me to the point all I could think about was getting home. Unfortunately, I had an accident and thought my life was over after getting a DUI.

Mr. Underwood is a blessing
I was charged with DUI and was worried about getting convicted and losing my license. But Jay and the team at Houston & Alexander worked hard and were able to get the case reduced to reckless driving. They kept me informed throughout the process and are experts in Court. I highly recommend them.
"I've known Jay Underwood for many years. I first experienced his true abilities when I tried, as a senior state prosecutor, a serious drug felony against him. Since that time, Johnny Houston & I joined forces while Jay became known for overturning two separate homicide convictions, for errors, at the Tennessee Court of Appeals. He tried such a good case, while handling appeals so well, that we had to have him join our team. You can't replace real, in-court experience, like his."
"I am a judge as well as an attorney. Although Jay was originally a solo practitioner, I first got to know him when he appeared before me in my court as a public defender. Jay was always on time, cared about his clients and the outcome of their cases and had a way of pushing issues that he thought should be pushed, without alienating me as a judge or the assistant District Attorney. Some lawyers NEVER acquire that skill. Jay was a division leader at the PD's office and handled a number of successful appeals. When my law office had an opening, Jay was the person we wanted to join us. He is hard-working, never complains and quietly GETS THE JOB DONE! Without reservation, I endorse Jay Underwood."
