Hell yes you should hire Troy

My DUI case looked to be pretty cut-and-dry. I was pulled over for speeding, performed not particularly well on the field sobriety tests and blew well over the limit on the portable breathalyzer. When I met with Troy and Hunter the first time, they were very honest and straightforward with me a...nd said my odds of winning the case were not good...they gave me 30% chance. But I hired them because during that initial interview, they showed a clearly superior knowledge of DUI cases than the other two lawyers I spoke with. They walked me through the whole process step-by-step and made me feel comfortable that everything would be taken care of with the best possible outcome. Given my circumstances, the best case scenario was still in all likelihood going to be a conviction, but hopefully with minimal fines and/or jail time. The state made a plea offer a few weeks before trial and Troy again advised me that my chances of winning were not all that great and that the plea deal wasn't a bad one. I decided to go ahead and go to trial as I figured even a 30% chance of getting a not guilty verdict was better than the 0% chance of accepting the plea deal and punishments that (to me) weren't all that much reduced from the standard guilty verdict. Plus, I had a lot of confidence in Troy. And that confidence turned out to be well-founded. Troy got the DA to agree to a bench trial rather than one by jury, which we both saw as an advantage for me. During the trial he rather brilliantly (yet respectfully) poked holes in the DA's case and the arresting officer's actions, which subsequently created a reasonable doubt in the judge's mind. Not guilty was the final verdict. I would without a doubt recommend Troy to anyone else with a DUI arrest.

Great DWI Layer

Troy took care of me every step of the way during my ordeal. He fought in court with more knowledge than the police officer had about DWI testing. He is very well accepted by other officers in the courtroom and is very reputable. Troy did his work, I was aquitted and he took care of my expungement. ...I would highly recommend him.

Troy is a Rock Star

From top to bottom the Burleson Law Firm was beyond excellent. I spoke with several other firms and had zero doubt who to choose. They kept me informed on court dates with calls and letters. His team was great with customer service and were very knowledgable. Then when it came to the actual courtroom... Troy was dominant. His confidence was obvious as he had total control of the court room. More importantly he knows his craft. I won my case easily when I thought I had a 50% chance at best. He was definitely an All Star in and out of the court room. I will recommend Troy Burleson in the future.

Super Lawyer

Troy is the quickest and smartest attorney I have seen. He never missed a beat and challenges everything. Almost every challenge was correct. The prosecution was baffled and certainly learned valuable lessons. It was like they were in school! Troy has all the knowledge and skill anyone could ask for.... I am thankful for not taking deals and using Troy for a full blown trial. He saved my future. Thanks Troy..Jim D

Troy Burleson: Competent, effective DWI attorney

From start to finish, Troy Burleson and partner Hunter Biederman, were highly effective defense attorneys demonstrating superior knowledge of DWI law and the legal system. I recommend them without reservation.
