I have a passion for justice and enjoy helping my clients get past a criminal problem and return their lives to normal and the way it was before their arrest. My clients are good people who have made a mistake. With good legal counsel, I believe it is possible to keep a criminal case from ruining your life, your job and your good name.

I know a little about making mistakes. When I was in law school I made a poor decision that put me in a place where I was shot in the back by a crazy person. I did not see this coming. But with the right counsel, good advice, good medical care and several years of hard work I was able to overcome this tragedy and become a healthy person and a successful attorney. I want you to have the advantage of good counsel so you can make the right decisions and return your life to normal. I know that after talking to me you will immediately feel better about your situation in that you will know what you are up against, what your options are and what the best course of action is to return your life to normal. I will let you know if I can help you and if I want to be your attorney. I am not the right attorney for everyone nor am I the cheapest. If I am not the right attorney for you I will give you some names of other attorneys who may be better suited for you and your case. I look forward to meeting you.

We are committed 110% in being that firm for you!

Best LawFirm

I had a felony conviction charge: DWI 3rd or more & abandoning child. Medlin and his team were able to DROP the abandoning child case and REDUCE my felony to a misdemeanor. The process wasn't long and I never had to see the judge, whereas my attorney, Matt, did the work. I never had to wait for a ...long period of time and any questions I had were always answered. Because of my felony being reduced to a misdemeanor, I am able to work again. Hands down, the best law-firm. If you are in serious trouble, I definitely recommend Gary and his law firm.

Best Law Firm in Fort Worth

If your looking for a law firm that really cares, The Medlin Law Firm is the one. I was charged with a Felony first time and was scared for my life. From the moment I called for consultation to the moment I hired them, they were by my side continuously to the end which resulted in a Dismissal. Natali...e Davis was the best legal assistant ever. My Attorney Matthew Peacock assured me at every single hearing that everything was going to be ok. He even explained all the legal terminology and didn’t rush me to take a plea. I’m speaking on experience so please, if your looking for quality, honest and a caring law Firm... look no further and choose Medlin Law Firm!!

Awesome Law Firm

I was facing another felony and I was extremely scared of going to prison. I knew that my case was extremely difficult and more than unlikely could be handled with the results I wanted. I have a lengthy criminal record with several felonies. I had already hired another criminal attorney that told ...me, with my criminal record there was no way that I would receive a 1244a and Tarrant County jail time for the charge I faced and that was the only outcome that I would agree to, so I fired him! I heard excellent things from other clients of The Medlin law firm and hired them on the spot! Gary, Matt , Natalie, and Jasmine made no promises what the outcome would be, but promised me they would work very and diligently for the outcome I wanted. They were able to get me exactly what I wanted and instead of jail time, Matt got me Tarrant County Labor detail! Thank you all for the miracle your law firm performed for me! If you are facing misdemeanor or felony charges don’t look any further, contact The Medlin Law Firm. They will literally work their fingers to the bone for the best outcome for your case!

Penny

Absolutely amazed with the efficiency and ability of this firm to get my case dismissed.

Posted by Stacy | October 15, 2019 | Hired Attorney | Lawsuits & Disputes

Perfect Team

My case was dismissed, but the paralegal and my lawyer were the team that got it done. I even got a call from Mr. Medlin after court and was happy for me that everything got taken care of and that I was helped. I even received birthday card, they all signed it. That made me feel good and cared abou...t. When most lawyers are told they are only vampiric ambulance chasers, that is not true in this case.

Will Gallagher

Criminal defense lawyer | Apr 06

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"Gary hired me to work for him after spending four years in the District Attorney's office in Tarrant County. Since working for Gary I have learned so much and can truly vouch for his expertise in Criminal Law. He understands the client always comes first and will fight to extremes in order to get the best result for the client as possible."

Thomas Weber

Criminal defense lawyer | Aug 20

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"I met Gary at a conference. As a fellow criminal defense lawyer in a different state, I was interested in knowing how criminal laws operate in Texas. I was able to discern that Gary knows what he is talking about with regard to DUI and other criminal laws. If I had a client in Texas I would recommend to Gary."

Alfredo Lozano

Criminal defense lawyer | Mar 25

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"Gary is not only dedicated to his clients, but his vast knowledge of criminal law and the courts put him at the top of his field. I happily endorse Mr. Medlin."

Sherry R. Armstrong

Criminal defense lawyer | Nov 09

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"I have known and worked with Gary for many years. He is an outstanding advocate for his clients and is extremely knowledgeable."

Lawrence Boyd

Unknown lawyer | Jun 24

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I endorse this lawyer. Gary Medlin is a "stand-up" criminal lawyer and the "go-to" lawyer in Tarrant County for ALR hearings. I have regularly hired him as local counsel in Fort Worth and I will continue to do so."

Tom Hill

Criminal defense lawyer | Jun 17

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"I endorse this lawyer."

M. Krugler

Criminal defense lawyer | Jun 17

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"I have known Gary Medlin for the better part of the past 20+ years. Highly intelligent and super conscientious, Gary genuinely cares about taking care of the rights of his clients. Further, his personal and professional integrity is beyond reproach. I would trust him with any referral involving a criminal matter. If for whatever reason, he believed that due to his caseload, time constraints or any other limitation that he was not the best possible attorney for the case, I know he'd make sure the client got into the hands of the person best equipped to help. In short, my endorsement is simply unequivocal. M Beth Krugler, JD MS Attorney-Mediator Former President, Tarrant Bar Assoc."

J. Trichter

DUI and DWI lawyer | Jun 17

Scott Wonder

DUI and DWI lawyer | Jun 16

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"Gary is a gentleman and a scholar who helped me out recently when I was in a bind and needed some help on a case that had some Texas implications. He was Johnny on the spot, interrupted his weekend, and followed through perfectly. I am glad not only to call him a colleague, but also my friend."
