Found not guilty on the account that I was not truly operating a motor vehicle

I was arrested for DWI and was not driving my vehicle. I was at a local restaurant, and became too intoxicated-but chose not to drive and sat in my truck to take a nap. The details after this will remain anonymous, but the arrest and the year that came after this arrest was the scariest and most u...nsure situation that I have ever gone through. My career and family were at jeopardy, and in my heart I knew that I made a mistake, but not one that entails the public shame and life ruining punishments accompanied with a DWI. I hired Troy because I did my research and became aware of his respectable reputation-and he proved this exactly in the courtroom. His treatment of the jury was very professional and polite, as well as the officer and others who were on the stand for the prosecution. There were times in the year awaiting my trial where I wondered why we did not talk more, but Troy certainly kept me informed-I kept my faith in him and learned on the trial day that he got all of the needed information for my trial in the beginning-and he saw the big picture as I worried about endless details (let him handle everything!!)! In the courtroom he poked holes in all of the arresting and prosecution flaws did it in a respectful manner. I felt like I did the right thing to get him involved because the story that they presented about me from the prosecution was not accurate in many areas on what had happened, and I needed help in getting the truth set straight. Troy defended me and you could tell that he believed in me-so thankful endlessly for what he has done for my family and future.

Very commercial

Troy Burleson is a extremely busy lawyer. We hardly talked during my case. Before signing the contract, they spend a lot of time explaining what they can do and what options are available, but as soon as contract is signed, they hardly care. Troy is knowledgeable and has some influence in court, also... well mannered. But his partner Hunter Biederman is very rude and forces to decide toward his recommended option. They are too busy to answer any question if there is other lawyer or individual involved, it's very hard to setup a meeting due to their unavailability. I will not recommend this attorney if client needs advice or assistance during case. If it's a straight forward case where it's ok to see your attorney in court only, Troy would be ok, but then it's not worth paying so much more than what other lawyers charge.

Troy Burleson is a great DWI defense attorney.

Troy won my ALR hearing so that my driver's licence was not suspended. I opted to go to trial pleading not guilty and Troy won that case as well. He is very knowledgeable and explained every part of the process along the way. I highly recommend him to anyone facing a DWI charge.

This man saved me a lot of time and money!

I got myself in a lot of trouble and had to have help fast. Not only was he fast but the most knowledgable attorney I could ever find.

Best DWI trial attorney in Collin County!!

Mr. Burleson is definitely the way to go should you find yourself in legal trouble. He's confident, reliable, and always a phone call away. In dealing with my case, he was not only realistic but extremely knowledgeable about the laws and how they pertained to my particular situation. He fought hard t...o help me take care of my stupid mistake. In the unfortunate event that I ever need his services again, I wouldn't think twice about calling him! I would refer him to anyone, and I will continue to do so.

"Troy's reputation for excellence in all phases of DUI/DWI practice is well deserved. He would be on the very very short list for alcohol related criminal charges for anyone "in the know" anywhere in North Texas. He is smart, hardworking, knowledgeable and truly cares about helping his clients improve their lives. I recommend Troy without any reservations. Lin McCraw"

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"Troy is an amazing lawyer. I have seen him in court trying one DWI after another. Sometimes, two, three or four times a week. He not only connects with the jurors, he is able to work his magic and get acquittals like its the norm!!! If acquittals are in other counties, it might not be such an accomplishment, but in Collin County, all criminal defense lawyers agree, it is the most difficult county to get an acquittal. Yet, Troy manages that because he is a natural. Proud to know him and endorse him with no reserve."

And that trial dedication to his clients shows through his frequent "not guilty" verdicts for his clients. Mr. Burleson is frequently sought out not only by prospective clients wanting representation, but also by other attorneys for his advice on how to fight criminal case."
