Dismissal of a false felony indictment.

Three years ago my fiancee of two months became angry and filed a report that I committed a serious felony against her, It was all lies and omission of pertinent facts but the DA's office had me indicted and charged with no evidence to back her claim. The case was finally dismissed this month after ...costing me much of my savings. Two years and 8 months after my indictment! Our constitutional right for a speedy trial doesn't exist in Harris County. I hired Don because it was obvious he was a competent and experienced trial lawyer. I refused the plea bargain offer because I would not admit guilt to a crime I did not do and I believed Don would get me acquitted. His paralegal, Jessica, was a great help and also very professional. Don spent more time on my case than he was compensated for. He never asked for additional fees, I feel like I will always owe him for his perseverance on my case.

Don is a excellent attorney. He had done a great job and always goes over and beyond. He got a 3rd degree felony dismissed and the defendant was facing jail time. Can’t thank Don enough. So so happy we choose to use him as our lawyer. If anyone wants a wonderful lawyer I would choose Don!!

Excellent Lawyer

Don was great. My divorce was very painless and affordable. Some paperwork wasn’t e-filed and he e-filed it at the courthouse so we didn’t have to reschedule. I highly recommend him!

Liar Liar pants on fire!! A joke of a lawyer

This man lied and had my family and I pay him his 3500 dollars and kept resetting the case. He never has visited my brother in jail and does not return calls at all. He is all about the money period. He should be disbarred immediately or someone needs to file a action against him. He is in fact a jok...e. He tells you all this crappie in the beginning to get you but then in return once he gets your business he does nothing to help. For cases that should be cut and dry he does nothing but reset, reset, reset!!!!!!!! What an unhonorable lawyer, DO NOT HIRE THIS MAN PLEASE!!!!
