About Jeffrey
Biography
I've been practicing law for 30+ years throughout the State of Texas. I am experienced, diligent, tenacious and have a strong "justice bone" in fighting for my clients. I have received the highest rating by Martindale Hubbell and am listed in the guide as a Preeminent Attorney in my areas of practice. This rating is based upon surverys from lawyers and judges with whom I regularly work. I practice primarily Family Law and Criminal Defense. I have been recognized as a Texas Super Lawyer by Thompson Reuters for seven consecutive years (2017, 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022 2023) I am dedicated to representing my clients during tough times including divorce, child custody and when they are charged with crimes whether felony or misdemeanor. Our five person team including attorney, Suzanna Johnson, who is licensed both in Florida and Texas are adept in assisting our clients in what is clearly a very stressful time.
After serving as an assistant district attorney in Houston (Harris County) I was honored to be selected as a Special Judge in the County Criminal Courts at Law. I've tried scores of felony and misdemeanor cases to a jury verdict. Experience Matters. I am also honored to serve as Presiding Municipal Judge for the City of Angleton. Integrity Matters.
With an office in Angleton (near the courthouse) we provide convenient and timely representation. I and my staff or prepared to assist you with your needs for strong, competent and passionate representatrion.
