Practice areas
My law firm represents defendants from the simplest criminal matter to the most serious including felony DWI, family violence, sexual assault, child pornography, aggravated assault or white collar crimes. Regardless of the situation, we are zealous advocates protecting my client’s rights and defending the case. We handle expunctions and nondisclosures (sealing record) for eligible clients that want their past records cleared. We represent matters across the state and in federal court.
25 years, 1,000 cases
Our firm zealously represents those charged with driving while intoxicated (DWI). We have had many cases dismissed as a result of knowing the facts and law as they apply in each set of circumstances. We bring the experience to the courtroom to try the case to a jury if needed. We are prepared to challenge high breath and blood test results that are erroneous.

Larry Bloomquist, Criminal defense Attorney on Jan 9, 2014
Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter
I endorse attorney George Carroll. In my estimation George is one of the top attorney’s in San Antonio. I have worked several cases with him over the years, and was very impressed with his knowledge, skill and abilities. He has a strong reputation and from what I see he earns it. If I have a difficult case and want to get a second opinion he is the first person I would call.
Aaron Hartley, Criminal defense Attorney on Sep 13, 2013
Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community
Mr. Carroll has dedicated a significant amount of time providing thoughtful, quality answers to legal questions on Avvo. I endorse this lawyer.

Bruce Houston, Child custody Attorney on Aug 6, 2013
Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community
George is at the top of my list when it comes to divorce and child custody matters. His legal knowledge, dedication, and perhaps most importantly his empathy keep him at his office and in court for untold hours in support of his clients. George Carroll is a bright lawyer and a dear human being; and I am unreserved in my recommendation.
Frank Hinojosa, Criminal defense Attorney on Jul 18, 2013
Relationship: Co-worker
As Mr. Carroll's law partner I have ample opportunities to not only work with him but to observe his work. I can unequivocally endorse Mr.Carroll as a zealous and skillful criminal defense lawyer. For years Mr. Carroll has been my first referral for criminal defense matters. And to be clear, I don't refer my family and friends to Mr. Carroll because he's my law partner but because he's the type of advocate I'd want to represent family and friends.
