Awesome Lawyer

Charge: DWI 3rd (felony level) Results: Misdemeanor Class A I hired Omar Nawaz through Gabriel Loya in the small office in Oak Cliff near Clarendon and Westmoreland streets of Dallas, TX. Yes that office is in the sketchy part of town but it's not the main office. Gabriel is straight forward with... no BS. My dwi arrest was on labor day 2016 and I finally settled on 11/14/2017. Omar Nawaz explained the strategy from the start and instructed me on steps I needed to take to gain the favor of the judge and DA as well as build a supporting case as to why I shouldn't be punished with a Felony degree dwi and instead obtain a misdemeanor conviction at the worst. I completed every item he requested and he kept me informed on any developments at each court setting. We did have to have court dates RESET many times but this wasn't a surprise because he did explain it would be part of the process. His assistants (Rebecca and 1 other but I forgot her name) were knowledgeable of the process as well and kept me updated via MYCASE.com or cell phone. Payments to Omar can be made online (super easy) or through regular cash, or checks. On the day of my sentencing the court probation office attempted to push his way with me on the sentence and I didn't feel comfortable answering any questions and I stated I would wait for Omar to show up.. Well long story short, Omar will stand up for you and piss some people off but he'll get the job done even if he has to go above to the next level of the management chain within the court. Overall I'm satisfied with the results, cost, and representation. I have recommended his services to ALL people I've run into that have similar issue.

Outstanding Attorney

My son has had unfortunate run-ins with the law in Dallas Texas and I live in California. It was challenging to know who could represent my son, especially since his family lives out of state. Omar came highly recommended by a trusted resource so we gave him a try. Omar proved to be an amazing ble...ssing to my son! My son was facing parole violation with possession of drugs and Omar got his offense reduce to a misdemeanor and had his probation reinstated not once - but twice! Yes, my son did not learn his lesson the first time and got in trouble a second time and Omar got him out of jail on both accounts. Aside from the wonderful results, he really takes the time to talk to the family to make sure that we are aware of what is taking place. I hope my son NEVER gets in trouble again, especially in Texas, but if he did the ONLY criminal defense attorney my son would use is Omar Ahmad Nawaz. Run don't walk to make sure you secure his services. Omar is the real deal! I wish more attorneys would be as good, especially when it comes to representing men of color. Bravo Omar! While my son will be on his own if he gets in trouble again, I hope others will find this post helpful so they will know who to call on for competent and efficient assistance when they need it. Again, run don't walk to hire an attorney who will get the job done - Omar is the real deal!
