Excellent Attorney

Doug represented me in a felony family violence case where I had been unjustly charged with such a significant crime. This conviction could have followed me for life. I was going to be kicked out of the delayed entry program for the armed services, renting an apartment was no longer afforded to me si...mply because of the nature of the crime. Doug was relentless with the DA, and he ultimately got the charges dismissed with only 40 hours of community service. He did this on our FIRST court date. Now I am able to expunge it from my record and get on with my life. I can't recommend him highly enough.

Excellent Results

I cannot begin to express how grateful I am to Doug and his staff. He truly pulled a rabbit out of his hat on my case. The best I was expecting was one year probation, a fine + court costs, an Interlock on my vehicle, community service, monthly urine test, AA classes, DWI Impact class. With two p...riors on my record, and facing a 2nd DWI, he was able to get it reduced to the 1st DWI penalty. Then at sentencing, he was able to get it reduced again to only a fine + court costs! No probation, no Interlock, no community service, no classes, (each of which has monthly fees)! The results were excellent! I would highly recommend him to anyone needing an attorney.

Dismissal on DWI

I hired Doug Atkinson in June of 2016 after receiving a DWI in Harris County. He alongside Jed Silverman (based in Houston) teamed up on my case. Being that I am a commercial driver this was essentially a felony case! They went over every single minute detail with a fine tooth comb and were ultimatel...y able to get my case dismissed. I am grateful to both Doug and Jed for all the hard work they put into my case and saved my career! I would most definitely recommend Mr. Atkinson.

Great outcome

Doug and Matthew exceeded my expectations with my case and was able to deliver the best possible outcome.. Because of his wealth of experience and knowledge of how to work the system, Doug worked out a positive outcome to a perilous case in which I could have received a variety of punishments. What D...oug was able to do made hiring him well worth it. Have no doubt that you will receive the best care when hiring this firm. His office staff is also very friendly, knowledgeable and extremely helpful.

Blessed

My son was facing 2-4 years in TDC for his 4th DWI. Doug fought for us till the end. My son received probation and DWI Court. He will receive much needed counseling and support to aid him in conquering this addiction. Many thanks to Doug
