Did a great job on my case

I am very happy with my choice in a law firm. Richard was a true professional in all his dealings with my case. This was a very stressful matter for myself and my family. Richard and the whole team did a great job in getting the results I needed. This is not a small one guy law firm and there are a l...ot of people on your case, but if your looking for a big power house to match up against the other side i would highly recommend this firm for any criminal case.

Great Criminal Defense Firm

Richard and Brian did a great job on my case. I couldn't be happier with my results. I was always in the loop and really loved the attention to the details. From everyone from the bottom to the top of the firm really worked hard on my case. Any person looking for a great criminal defense firm call Ri...chard McConathy today!

Saved my Life

As a single mother, money can be very tight and life overly stressful. I got myself into a bad situation thinking I could make some easy money with a friend. Was I wrong! I was so stupid in not realizing I was really looking at some jail time. I sat up most nights after my arrests thinking who was go...ing to take care of my kids if I was sent away for a long time. Thank God I found Richard McConathy. He took my case with a great payment plan I could afford and was always on myside in the case and with my money issues. After it was all done I never spent a day in jail and I was never convicted of a felony. I've got a new lease on life thanks to him. If your like me and your kids are all you got and need help, Richard is the lawyer you need.

Simply the Best

Richard McConathy is simply the best lawyer in Texas period! The whole staff is great. Always on top of things, calls, emails, and the attention to clients and service is beyond anything I can say. The best was the results, a Not Guilty!!! If your in trouble for a criminal offense and need a real bul...ldog on your side the get Richard McConathy, you wont regret it.

Save your money

I can't say their winning percentage is a lie but I can assure you that they never once attempted to contact me about my case during the 13 Months prior to trial. On two of the three court appearances Brian Bolton showed up in jeans, I wish he cared enough about my case to at the very least dress the... part. And even though I hand delivered my arrest video the day I signed the contract it took them 7 MONTHS to watch it. I feel like they took advantage of me at a time when in was looking for hope, and I sincerely regret hiring them. They are nothing but money sharks that couldn't care less about you. And I'm sorry to say I got the same deal a free court appointed attorney would have gotten me. Terrible law firm!!!!!!
