Liekis family

Tim's office is the best in TX. He cares about the client even though they may have accessed of a crime. Tim has definitely saved not only my children but my husband not going to prison/juvenation court. My two sons got into trouble when they were teenagers doing stop things to impress their frien...ds. The cases were serious in nature. He sat down with each child and clearly to them the risk involved and how they have to follow a straight and narrow line until the court date and when their probation is up. They are both followed the advice, but I love about Tim he treats these teenagers as his own child and fact the whole office treats you like family and they are to help fix the mess they got themselves into and clearly tell them the repercussions if they do not follow the advice/path he has come up with them. I can tell you it did work, and they took him seriously and respect the "heck" of out them and anyone in the office. Again, how Tim treats you like family and tells you straight how of any actions. I recommend him to anyone in trouble if you follow his and his team's guidance your legal drama will be a heck of a less than with another attorney.

Amazing Attorneys

Mr.Powers and team are amazing and will fight for your right the best they can! They did an amazing job with my daughter being a juvenile case and who does suffer mental health issues Mr.Powers and team especially Mr.Hudson got her the best deal possible and we were happy with the outcome of things! ...She is now doing so much better!

Excellent Representation!

Joshua Hudson represented my daughter in a juvenile case and exceeded our expectations! He was very knowledgeable, confident and direct yet kind and sympathetic. He kept us up to date on the status of the case, responded quickly to our questions and concerns and made us feel important. We are gratefu...l to have found this firm and definitely recommend the The Law Offices of Tim Powers to anyone in need of excellent representation!

Very knowledgable

Mr. Powers was very knowledgeable about juvenile and adult law, both of which were applicable in my daughter's case. Overall, he was able to save us about $6000 in additional court fees. In the end, her case was no-billed by the grand jury. I definitely recommend Mr. Powers.

Promises not made

My case was 10 years ago this November for purchase and furnish to minors. I went to Tim Powers based off his radio ads and his initial letter after I bonded out. When I met Mr. Powers; he was completely professional. He explained the serious charges I was facing, and that being a first time offender... with a clean record outside of this one incident he would fight for me to be put into a youth probation program. Which after completion the charges would be dropped and my life would go back to normal. I was under age and did not actually purchase nor furnish the alcohol, which made me believe what he said. Mind you I was a young stupid 19 year old who thought protecting my friends was the right thing to do little did I know it was the worst thing I could ever do with my life. Mr Powers kept me in the loop with just court dates through letter mail. When my final court date came he approached my mother and I with a bargain from the prosecution. Instead of being put into the youth program I was made example of with being punished under every stipulation outside of jail time. Mr Powers showed up late and said that it was the best he could do. I dont believe today that what he said then was true. I believe I was just another dollar sign. I remember immediately after finishing my cout ordered requirements. I was sent a letter for sealment of my records just another way for Mr Powers office to get more money from a client he did not properly represent. I am disappointed and disgusted with the fact now 10 years later I am having to try to fight and if possible clear my name. I do not deny underage drinking with what I thought were friends 10 years ago was smart it was the dumbest thing I ever did, Protecting them from getting in trouble was even worse since in reality I never purchased that alcohol. I hope for any one searching for a lawyer with a similiar charge; they stay weary of Mr Powers and his broken promises.
