Dismissed

Tyler did a great job for me. I never felt like he wanted me to settle. In fact he would encourage me to hang in there and go to trial. In the end my DWI was dismissed the day of trial. I would definitely recommend them.

If you want the best lawyer to defend you, call Tyler Flood

If you want the best lawyer to defend you, call Tyler Flood and be confident that you have the best DWI lawyer available. But it’s not just Tyler your getting, you get his team and they are great. I had the privilege of meeting and working with several members of his team getting my questions answere...d and support when I needed it. Many thanks to Justin for returning my calls sometimes late in the evening, when perhaps others might wait until the next day, keeping me worrying overnight, but not Justin. I could hear in his voice that he was tired from a long day but still, he never cut me off and listened patiently until he felt he had answered anything I could think of. I also was able to meet and work with James Fletcher and Andrea one of Tyler’s Paralegal who is awesome. My Case: 2nd DUI – After a long year and a half, working though the process in Montgomery County criminal courts, Tyler Flood won my case. It was wonderful to hear the Judge read the verdict “Not Guilty”and to know the Jury reached that conclusion unanimously! I want to point out that Tyler negotiated a very good offer from the DA and it was tempting, but I wanted to clear my name. Most Lawyers would have probably told me I was an idiot for not taking it, but not Tyler. When I told him I wanted to fight it he did not argue with me, he said “OK”. We both went down the hard road and I am glad we did. I was not sure what to expect in an actual trial and was nervous as can be, but once it got under way I have to say it was reassuring to see Tyler and Andrea in action. It was amazing to see how they were taking down so many notes as testimony was given and how they worked together so seamlessly. When Tyler went to work on the Police Officer’s testimony at one point I almost jumped up and yelled Yeah! Go Tyler! Of course I kept my cool. As the trial winded down I was not so confident that we would win. Then I heard Tyler’s closing argument and it was so well thought out and encompassed all the critical details. His argument resonated with confidence in our position. As he laid it out, I could see the look in the jurors faces and I thought yes! they are getting it! It was such a relief to bring this to a close. You want to win and clear your name? Hire Tyler Flood and his team!

A Master of His Craft

Tyler Flood is a master of his craft. He has a great legal team, and they all are working behind the scenes for you. All the other attorneys I consulted in Houston (about five) told me that I should take a plea and just do probation. But I'm in a profession where this specific charge is highly frowne...d upon, so having this stain on my record wasn't really an option. In Texas, you can basically take a plea and admit guilt or fight the charge, so I wanted to fight it. And Tyler was the only attorney who looked me in the eye and said that he was willing to fight every inch for me and my case. Tyler promises no miracles - Only that he is willing to do everything in his power to help you. If you have a pending DWI, then be patient. You are in for a long ride. It took a full year for me to go to trial and that is less time than most defendants from what I've heard. As Tyler advised patience, it paid off... I got moved to a nicer judge, a witness moved, and the state made clerical mistakes. Tyler fought calmly like a Jedi master, and we ended up with a CASE DISMISSED. Tyler is the premier attorney for this. You get what you pay for. A guy who will fight for you.

DWI 2nd Offense

Tyler Flood & Associates did an awesome job handling my 2nd DWI offense. James Fletcher was my lawyer and he always kept me up to date, was very helpful, and extremely knowledgeable. In fact anyone I spoke to from the firm was always very quick and helpful with whatever I needed. They took my cas...e to trial and did a wonderful job getting a not guilty verdict. Their team really came together to do some amazing work in court ! My family and I are very thankful and appreciative of everything they were able to do for me!

1st Offense DWI - Harris County

My case involved a car accident and a blood draw with a BAC over .15 after refusing to submit to both breath and blood. Thankfully, no other vehicle was involved, and no one was hurt. Tyler Flood, being the confident and excellent litigator that he is, took my case to trial after us being denied Pre-...Trial Diversion, and had my case dismissed after being in trial for maybe 3 hours total over 2 days. Tyler Motioned to Suppress on grounds of an unreasonably lengthy detention period where no DWI investigation occurred or was even in the works. Tyler had a convincing argument for the judge who eventually granted the motion. Thus, all evidence (video, blood draw, SFSTs, etc) collected at or after the incident could not be used against me. The State decided to dismiss the case 5 minutes after the Motion to Suppress was granted since it became self-evident that they could not meet the burden of proof. I am forever grateful to Tyler Flood. He saves the lives of good and innocent people by protecting our rights in a system that gets harsher and more unfair everyday. One thing I will add is that Tyler's trial law skills are unlike anybody I have ever seen, heard or even read about. He is phenomenal in the courtroom, and I wholeheartedly recommend Tyler to anybody who finds themselves in an unforgiving situation due to unjust protocol. Thank you so much, Tyler. You gave me my life back!
