Purple Unicorn - An Attorney with Honesty and Integrity
We had a pretty involved case that required Mr. Haynes to attend multiple court dates in Parker County. He stayed in constant contact with us, discussed options for prison diversion on a felony case and the possible outcomes of those options. He worked very hard to get the best plea bargain for the situation and treated us with respect and compassion throughout the entire process. He is a true professional and was a blessing in an extremely difficult situation. I HIGHLY recommend him!!

Outstanding work and amazing lawyer!
Roger Haynes literally saved me and my family from a very difficult issue regarding a parole violation. Roger attended the hearing and literally picked apart the supposed violations that I was accused of. His professionalism and low key aggressiveness were impressive, to say the least. I was fully reinstated and would highly recommend his services. Roger and his staff were available to update my family at every step of the process. Great Lawyer!

Roger is a detailed-oriented trial attorney. He produces very good results and keeps his clients informed. If one of my family members were charged with a crime, Roger is on a very short list of people I would call.

Outstanding attorney!
Recently I went to trial and was absolutely amazed how well prepared he was. He researched items in my case that I wouldn't have thought of and blended them perfectly into a well presented and cohesive case. Throughout the months I was waiting for trial, he would answer all questions quickly and thoroughly. He was trustworthy and genuinely showed concern for my case. I would highly recommend him to anyone.

Honorable Service
Roger Haynes is a respectful, confident, and well-qualified attorney. He is greatly asppreciated by me and my whole family. He was able to reset my probation from two felony cases down to one case after seven years of fleeing from prosecution. Instead of heading to jail I was awarded eight years probation. I have four children and it was the best news I could have ever recieved. After three years on probation I called Mr. Haynes up again and asked if he could work on an early release from probation for me. He successfully completed my request. I am now a completely free person for the first time since the year 2000. I am so thankful for Mr. Haynes time and effort that he took to handle my case and he always made me feel at ease and comfortable through the court process. I highly recommend Mr. Haynes to anyone in need of a great attorney who handles his clients cases with great care and deliberation. May God bless Mr. Haynes and his family as he works to make a better life for those of us who have come across troubled times.

Freedom is Priceless
Mr. Haynes truly cares. He kept my family and I informed all the way through my case, even when I was in jail. He knew my Judge and worked to give us ample time to prepare for my trial. And when that day finally arrived, he was well prepared and coordinated everything perfectly. He was part of God's plan for my priceless freedom and changed life, to this very day. He is not only a good lawyer, but a good man. Thank you Mr. Haynes, and may you and your family be safe and happy always!

Ms Phillips
He was very easy to talk to and for the most part helpful and returned calls until after sentencing day in court, I had questions, very important ones and he would not call me back, neither would his assistant. I at least needed to know who to call for answers but felt dropped like a hot potato! As a federal defense attorney I feel like he was withholding information because once sentencing happened he was done. He was paid well by the federal government and then stingy with his time. He was great up until that point though.
