Real lifesaver

My husband found himself in a situation of some horrendous accusations being made. Knowing they were false we started looking for a criminal defense attorney to begin our case to fight them. After speaking to a couple other attorneys, we went to see Buck. The moment we walked in, we felt an immediate... difference. Before he even discussed the case he spent time to get to know us as people. After hearing our story he made one phone call and confirmed for free what other attorneys were wanting over 5k to do. We hired him on the spot. Kimberly was great, they got right to work, calling us the next day to say case was actually inactive/closed & were wanting to refund our retainer. Mr Files stated he made 2 calls that took less than 5 minutes & we should go celebrate!

Buck Files Is Probably Best Attorney in East Texas

Thoroughly explained all charges in a clear and concise manner. Quickly identified options and gave me the necessary information to make a decision on the best course of action. Once, we agreed on an approach, he quickly resolved the issue to my satisfaction while answering my questions and keeping... me informed. I would highly recommend Buck and his team

Unbelievable Results!!!

Mr. FIles represented me today in court on a felony probation status hearing, my results were amazing. I could not have asked for a better outcome. Mr. FIles and Kimberly went above and beyond for me. I was very impressed with how compassionate and supportive they are, and how they made me feel like... my case was of top priority. He is well respected in the Courts, and when you see him in the Courtroom you can see why, he is a straightforward, genuine, and ethical.

Against the odds.

On my initial consultation, Mr. Files was very candid about the chances for leniency in my DWI charge. Although this was my first ever offense, the specifics surrounding my case did not lend themselves to a very positive outcome. This left me very disheartened. However, determined to take the shot, h...e and his team fought for me to be given a pre-trial diversion. The day before my court date, he called me personally, excited to give me the good news that he had been successful. Mr Files and his team had a well organized plan of attack for dealing with my case from the start. It was comforting to be able to follow this plan of action knowing I was actively doing some little part to help the outlook. In the end he was able to secure my pre-trial diversion, in a very unlikely situation. I can only hope that by being a positive example during my probation period, I will open the door for him to be successful and obtain more such verdicts for others like myself.

Great Attorney

I hired Mr. Files to be my attorney for my DWI case. Mr. Files and his team worked very hard and did an excellent job to get me the best outcome in my case. Mr. Files truly cares about his clients. I would hire him again and highly recommend him
