Daphne is a professional Criminal Defense Attorney !!!

Anyone that has ever been in trouble with the Law. Has heard once you get in the system they keep you in the system. Which is very true…….the council that you select can and will definitely determine the outcome! I was involved in a altercation in 2007 during a ugly divorce. I was involved in a f...ight with my soon to be ex wife’s new boyfriend. At my house on on my property. I was attacked , however no witnesses only her and him. So I was taking it to trial . I was looking at 2-20years. So in 2012 I took a deal , and received 10 yrs deferred. No Felony…I didn’t want to take a chance on not getting to see my 8 yr old daughter grow up and miss really knowing her. Only because the attorney I did not select did NOT help me. So moving forward 3 months left on Probation I received a MTR (motion to revoke) probation. Due to not paying the full amount of the $38,000.00 restitution . I asked friends and researched not good but great Representation…..Shawn C Brown Law firm. At the initial consultation I explained my situation and decided to select Shawn’s firm to represent me and my freedom and Record. My Probation officer said they where most likely going to charge me with a Felony and put me in PRISON or continue probation. . So 15 yrs later. I was still looking a 2-20 . I was devastated Shawn team went to work from the get go. The judge had issued a warrant for my arrest. So I turn my self in with Daphne Previti one of Shawn key team members.Daphne went to court with me twice. She was able to meet with Judge and discuss my situation. The judge was going to send me to TDC. Daphne Previti negotiated going thur the satellite magistrate office in the basement of the court house VS. 12-24 hours in the Bexar County Jail. She stayed with me and made sure all the paperwork was right to assure there where not mistakes . Shawn C Brown team covered a portion of my Bond………..the judge set a higher bond then any of us had expected. Daphne Previti communicated with me anytime I had a question or concern. As well as Shawn was there anytime I needed a question answered. The outcome was this 15 yr. Nightmare is over. Off Paper. No more Probation, no more Fines, no. More supervision etc. Case Closed…..The DA dropped the case due to my Council. Thank to Daphne Previti and Shawn C Brown including the rest of his team pretty much all of his team members where involved . I sure wish I had them in 2007 when this happen . THIS IS THE TEAM YOU NEED WHEN YOUR FUTRUE AND FREEDOM IS AT RISK! Thank you Shawn and Daphne! Truly Great full James Womack

Amazing, knowledgeable, professional and responsive

Ms. Previti helped us recently with a potential case. She was professional, knowledgeable and responsive. At all times she was available to us and to represent us during the matter, which, thanks to her, concluded favorably. We would not hesitate to call her again should the need arise.

Excellent representation! Best attorney ever!

Mrs. Daphne Previti and the law offices of Shawn Brown represented me on my 2nd degree felony case and she did a perfect job! She was able to get my case reduced to deferred adjudication and keep me out of jail. From the day we met through the result of my case, I had 100% confidence that she handl...ed everything from start to finish in a very professional manner and was able to reach an outcome for my case that was above and beyond what I could have hoped for given the charge I was facing. Her dedication and hard work gave me confidence that I would receive the best representation possible. I would absolutely recommend Mrs. Previti and the law offices of Shawn Brown to anyone looking for a defense attorney and will use her again in the future if I ever need representation, fingers crossed I never do but just in case, I know there is an amazing attorney there who I can trust and put my faith in that she will do an incredible job. I would give Mrs. Daphne Previti 10 stars if possible and will absolutely refer her and the law offices of Shawn Brown to anyone ever looking for representation. With Mrs. Previti representing you, you can be guaranteed you will receive the best representation there is available in all of Texas, and heck even the whole nation! Thank you Mrs. Previti for all of your hard work and dedication to my case, you truly are a life saver! I will absolutely return to have you represent me again for my deferred adjudication to be dismissed early. I know that with you, your hard work and your dedication I have nothing to worry about. You explained everything perfectly and walked me through every step of my case ensuring I understood exactly what would happen and there were no surprises. You got me the best possible outcome and I'm greatly pleased with your work.
