THE top attorney in the game!

I hired Trinidad for my DWI defense. Trinidad was not only effective in having my charges reduced he was the most understanding, honest and compassionate voice of support during my case. He fought for me when the system and no one else would. He is always quick to respond, no matter the day/time and ...is a man I have come to admire for his strength, knowledge of the law and legal systems, persistence, diligence, professionalism, empathy and so many other qualities that make him a hell of an attorney. No one in my life has ever fought for me the way Trinidad has, I wouldn’t trust another with my freedom or livelihood. He not only understands the law to a great degree, he understands people to a great degree.

Best Criminal Attorney to Defend You, Your Family and Future

I highly recommend Attorney Trinidad Zamora to anyone that has found themselves in unfortunate circumstances as did my youngest son. The lives of my family and my son would have been shattered if not for Attorney Trinidad Zamora. Mr. Zamora’s extensive legal background and expertise as a trial attor...ney in criminal justice put my mind at ease during a time of uncertainty. Mr. Zamora knew my son’s freedom and future were at stake and he took it very personal that the County was out to take my son away from me and our family. After consulting with Mr. Zamora there was never a doubt in my mind, that Mr. Zamora is the best attorney for the job because I knew my son deserved the very best representation to preserve his future and his freedom. Mr. Zamora dedicated himself to our case the entire time and took it very personal that my son’s freedom was in jeopardy. He resolved two complex cases and more than exceeded our expectations. Mr. Zamora is deeply passionate about helping people who find themselves in unfortunate situations such as my youngest son who was going through a phase of alcohol abuse and reckless behavior. My 22-year-old son was accused of two profoundly serious felonies within an 11-month period; assault of a public servant (Texas State Trooper) in Grimes County and Felony Intoxication Assault in Harris County and he was destined to receive an excessive lengthy prison term. I am so thankful I was referred to Mr. Zamora, who exceeded all my expectations in defending my son’s freedom. Mr. Zamora was relentless in fighting for my son’s freedom and future; and would not accept the Court’s mediocre terms in exchange for my son’s freedom. Without his legal expertise and diligence, I would have lost my son for a decade. He not only saved my son, but he also saved my family the devastation of an impact that would have forever changed our lives. If you find yourself in an unfortunate situation, you cannot afford to take your chances on the outcome of your case. I cannot stress enough that the success of your case depends on whether you hire Mr. Zamora to represent you or your family members. Do not gamble your freedom and your future to the draw of luck. Attorney Trinidad Zamora will dedicate himself to your case and fight relentlessly for your future and freedom. I consider Mr. Zamora my confidant and “our family attorney,” for life. Should any legal matter arise I know he is a phone call away and his door is always open and that he is in my family’s corner.

Representation for DWI

Trinidad was very thorough from the beginning of my DWI case. No bluff, exaggerations, but instead transparency and practicality. Well respected and provided some bulldog service! He wouldn’t let me lose hope when things didn’t look good for me and I would recommend him in any legal circumstance. The... stakes were high but he aims to please!!! Thank you soooo much!

Great experience

Trinidad made the experience of having to deal with a DWI most enjoyable. He did what he said he would do and in a timely fashion. Hopefully I never have to hire him again, but I absolutely would.

Criminal defense lawyer | Mar 02

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"There are three things I respect about Trinidad. First, he is a warrior. The truth is folks, no amount of $$ given to an attorney will make that attorney "fight" more. Either the attorney is a fighter or he is not. Second, I respect Trinidad because he actually cares about his clients. If our clients know we really, no shit, care about them, then we have given them a piece of mind that no one else can give them. Our clients deserve this. Finally, I respect Trinidad because he works his cases from the very beginning. Working cases early gets good results, most commonly dismissals. Trinidad's record of dismissals is absolutely outstanding for an attorney with his years. There are too many attorneys who don't explore all avenues, and let a case get all the way to trial, thinking they can go in and "wing it." Trinidad is a perfect example of "zealous" advocacy, an ideal that all lawyers should aspire to. I am honored to be his friend and colleague."

"Trinidad Zamora is someone I am proud to call a friend and colleague. He's a person of strong character and good integrity. He's a determined investigator, and he brings that same detail-minded way of practice to every case he defends. Trinidad is the kind of attorney who comes to court prepared for every conceivable angle that the prosecutor can try, and he too has many a trick up his own sleeve. He's got the keen mind of a scholar combined with the heart of a warrior. And it shows in his courtroom presence and skilled advocacy in front of juries. I don't just know Trinidad; I respect him."
