Excellent client representation

Ms. Previti represented my son in a deadly conduct case in Bexar County. Her experience, patience and persistence played a huge role in finally dismissing the case. This positive outcome is one of the brightest moments in my son’s troubled history. Her ability to keep the client advised and engaged... in trying to get his life in order may well have saved his life. I highly endorse Ms. Previti and her firm.

Thank You Thank You Thank You !

I am a clinical RN and a hospice nurse, and I guess sometimes a rather naïve senior citizen. It seems I had the simple misfortune of moving in next to some persons the likes of whom I had never encountered before, and was certainly not prepared for. The first thing I knew was that I was under multi...ple lawsuits, and that somehow even the District Attorney's office was involved, and that there were multiple allegations/charges against me, and active warrants out for my arrest. I was blessed to quickly find Shawn Brown's law firm, and Daphne Previti spoke with me multiple times that same night. She listened, assured and calmed me. It was like she could see right into the circumstances, and into the persons that had caused my circumstances. She had a plan, and I could tell that she knew what she was doing, and all I had to do was follow. First, we went through steps to make sure that I would not be unexpectedly picked up and arrested, and then it was like she enlisted her entire team to work hard and help with my case. They cared, guided me, and worked hard for me, and especially also attorney William Salazar... like Daphne.. courteous, professional and confident. In a manner of just a few months, and without me ever even having to go to court, they managed to get the DA's office to Drop All Charges Against Me. Holy cow, and what an ordeal, and what a successful outcome for me, and I get my life back! Thank you sooo much. And PS: for those out there concerned about expenses, I have heard that good law firms and attorneys can be very expensive, and maybe they can, but all I know is, guess what... they were Not for me. Legal problems are terrible, but I'm not quite so naïve anymore, so if you have any I can tell you this... What you want, and need, is good help that you know you can trust. Call Daphne, and be blessed like I was.

Johnny, thank you for trusting us to extricate you from the false allegations. There are usually two sides to a story and often law enforcement only hears from one side prior to making an arrest. I am glad we were able to help you out of this mess and I appreciate the five star review.

Daphne Previti is excellent

Mrs. Previti did a great job on my Dad's case. She worked with him for over a year and was very available with her time to helping him. She won multiple cases for him, civil and criminal. She made sure to reach out to us whenever we could be of help to the case and kept us in the loop. We are so happ...y to have hired her.

Daphne Previti is an Excellent Defense Attorney

I really appreciate how hard Daphne fought for me in Court. She was able to adjudicate my DWI to be able to be removed from my record after the probation period. She treated me with respect and spoke highly of me in front of the Judge. She is definitely Counsel that you should hire to represent yo...u. Thank you very much Daphne. You will be my number one suggestion to anyone who asks. You are a gem!

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
