I started my career as an Assistant District Attorney at the Harris County District Attorney's Office. After a few years, I left the office to open my own practice with my husband and partner (who is also a former ADA). I have 19 years of experience exclusively in criminal law. I specialize in all aspects of criminal law. No case is too small or big for our firm. We handle DWI's, thefts, felony cases -- just about any criminal case. We will work with you regarding the retainer fee and subsequent costs. As long as a client shows a willingness to pay, we have many flexible payment plans. We work hard for our clients and seek the best result and outcome always. Please feel free to call us at any time.

A Great Lawyer, Person and Ally
After months of frustration and my case not going anywhere it became clear that my attorney was overloaded and did not have the time that my situation demanded.

Theft Charges
Mrs. Brown is a miracle worker. She is worth every penny. I made my first poor decision and was out on bail.
