The best honest solid person in law period

I am so lucky to have been able to meet and hire Mr. Brian Poe Esquire. He is the best. He saved me from massive and I mean massive time. And large exposure. He does not overcharge to put for his building and staff like all the other lawyers. He actually is a former Assistant United States Attorney at U.S. Department of Justice and a former Dallas County District attorney who worked under the legendary Tony Schook. I got my life saved and I am now at Home safe thanks to Brian and his wonderful Criminal Federal legal skills. He is a blessing to me and my family. We will never ever forget his wonderful work and honesty and ability to work with my family and me. He is always honest and truthful. He is a family man. He is honest. Don’t hire any criminal lawyer anywhere unless you speak to Mr. Brian Poe Esquire. Trust me you won’t be let down.

Experienced, Respected, Compassionate

My Son was facing serious felony criminal charges which could have resulted in multiple years in prison. In all honesty in Mr. Poe being his court appointed attorney we really were not expecting much. Sadly this wasn’t my sons first time in trouble and our experience with both hired and court appointed attorneys hasn’t been the best. They’ve often been difficult to reach and we’ve found ourselves to be just another case file. This wasn’t the case with Brian Poe. Not only did we find him extremely knowledgeable in federal criminal law, he was compassionate and treated my son and our family with respect. He took NUMEROUS calls from my son and myself and always took the time to explain every step of the process. Brian actually would take the time to message me when he would meet with my son just to let me know that he was doing okay. He’s genuinely just a good man. In our experience with Mr. Poe we found him to be a dedicated, knowledgeable attorney with a great working relationship with both the DA and the courts. In court he fought for my son and was able to get the minimal amount of time on his sentence. I sincerely don’t believe we could have done this without him. My review cannot begin to express our gratitude and appreciation for the determination and hard work he put into my sons case. If you’re looking for a respected, experienced, compassionate attorney who will fight for you then Brian Poe is the attorney for you.

State and Federal Criminal Defense

In addition to being board certified in criminal law by the Texas Board of Legal Specialization and the National Board of Trial Advocacy, I am one of only a select few individuals in DFW who has served as both a state and federal prosecutor. As a result, I have a vast amount of experience when it comes to how the government investigates and prosecutes its case. I have successfully tried approximately 150 trials between the state and federal systems for offenses involving everything from DWI to Capital Murder and complex white collar fraud. As an Assistant United States Attorney, I led hundreds of investigations/prosecutions involving complex white collar fraud, organized crime involving large scale drug and violent crime organizations, money laundering, and violations of the Bank Secrecy Act. I have a stellar reputation for being able to think outside the box to get the best results possible. Call me today to see how I can help you!

Criminal defense Attorney | Aug 19
Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"Brian is an exceptional attorney who produces exceptional results for his clients. I endorse this attorney."

Russell Lorfing

Federal crime Attorney | Nov 02
Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"I worked with Brian when he was a federal prosecutor at the United States Attorney's Office in Dallas and Fort Worth. In an office full of Harvard grads, Alpha males, and over achievers, Brian Poe stood out above all others. He is quite literally the best of the best --and I say that as a former federal prosecutor and current defense attorney. He is a titan in the court room and a zealous advocate. A lot of attorneys will take your money and phone it in. Not Brian. He is a fighter. Brian uses his connections and aggressive style of advocacy for every single client. I have looked up to Brian as a mentor and friend for years now and consider him to be the best attorney I've ever seen with my own two eyes. He is that good. I'm not sure what he charges but whatever it is, he's worth every penny."

Clayton Smith

"Great trial lawyer. I endorse this lawyer."

Kendall Castello

Kevin Harris

Criminal defense Attorney | Oct 10
Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"Brian Poe is an attorney that earned a very good reputation as a trial attorney at the state and federal level. He has a wide knowledge of the law and complex criminal issues. He has a great work ethic and is very smart. I would recommend him with confidence for anyone looking for a great criminal defense."

Efrain Sain

Criminal defense Attorney | Sep 29
Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"I endorse this lawyer. I knew Brian Poe as a state prosecutor and as a federal prosecutor. He is a very sharp attorney who knows the law very well. More than that, I found him to be reasonable and judicious as we would negotiate through different cases. His even temperament, I believe, will be a great plus now that he represents the accused. I can see that this is a man who can empathize with someone facing the great power of the government."

Vincent Wisely

Criminal defense Attorney | Sep 29

Dimitri Dube

Federal crime Attorney | Sep 29
Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"I endorse this lawyer. Brian is an excellent lawyer. He was an excellent prosecutor who was always fair. Now, as a defense lawyer, he will use the years of experience he accumulate to the benefit of his clients."
