About Machell
Biography
I was born in Jamaica and raised in the DFW metroplex. I spent 9 years in the United States navy before coming back to Texas. I attended the University of Texas at Arlington where I graduated with a degree in Criminal Justice and Psychology. I obtained my law degree from Texas Southern University’s Thurgood Marshall School of Law. While in law school, I volunteered with the Innocence Project at the school’s Earl Carl Institute for Legal and Social Policy. I assisted with the process of overturning the sentences of wrongfully convicted individuals. After seeing firsthand how the criminal justice system can be unfair to minorities and the underprivileged, I became committed to providing the best legal counsel to the oppressed class.
My background and upbringing bring a unique perspective to the practice of law at Garcia Legal Group. I strives to understand the issues my clients face and to use my legal expertise to help clients solve their legal issues in the most efficient manner.
