Outstanding Representation

When I was initially arrested for a DWI I was a first time offender and did not know the full extent of what fighting it in court would mean. Kyle was patient and walked me through the entire process. He made himself available to me even on weekends to answer questions and help reduce my anxiety. Ult...imately, it took almost two years to resolve my DWI and Kyle was there every step of the way. I was offered many plea deals because I was a first time offender with a low BAC level and each deal seemed good, however, Kyle never pressured me to accept anything I did not feel 100% confident with. In the end he ended up getting my case dismissed. Over the two years that I worked with him he showed nothing but professionalism and empathy, I would highly recommend him to anyone.

A lawyer that will fight for you!

Kyle represented me for a Class A assault case. It was my first time having trouble with the law and I was very unaware of the legal process. I figured common sense justice would be applied by prosecutors but I found that is not necessarily the case. I found that a lot of the prosecutors are only int...erested in winning and advancing their career. Basically once you are charged, you need someone fighting for you to prove your innocence or take some sort of plea. Kyle did a fantastic job fighting for me. He is very knowledgeable about the law and has a lot of tools in his kit to help prove your innocence. Kyle fought for me and refused to be pressured into bad plea deals. We eventually went to trial, which ended in a mistrial and an eventual dismissal. I highly recommend Kyle and his team to fight your case.

Knowledgeable Attorney

Assisted in a Public Intoxication case. Asked me what I wanted and said he would do everything to realistically obtain that result and did. Highly knowledgeable and I never felt judged in his presence. Very upfront and honest which is all anyone can ask for. I had no doubt he would defend my case adm...irably. Charges dismissed.

Awesome

Kyle represented me he was honest upfront about what I was about to face and ways there to guide me through the stressful process. Kyle was hands on gave me his cell number told me to call anytime and was always there for me. my case was ultimately dismissed thanks 100 percent because of him and his... representation. He and his office are top notch hands on lawyers that are there to inform you of and defend your rights, Can't recommend him enough!

Excellent

-I was fortunate enough to have picked Kyle Simpson and his partner Charles Gold to represent me for a BS dui and vehicular evasion charge. Over 2 years they stuck with me while avoiding crappy plea deals from prosecutors. All charges were DISMISSED. Besides having law skills, Mr. Simpson also displa...yed people skills not just with me, but with dealing with the prosecution. -I never thought this was a big deal, but I happened to see other lawyers who showed up with wrinkled suits looking like they just rolled outta bed with a seemingly lack of energy, but he showed up to over what seemed like a jillion court dates ready to rock. This made me feel confident in him. -I was always kept informed, and Kyle was always easy to contact. Like I said, I was never pressured by him to take an easy plea deal to help pad his stats. It's great to actually have justice served and I'd recommend Kyle Simpson and his partner Charles to anyone.

"I endorse this lawyer. As a prosecutor, I worked with Kyle on numerous cases, and he earned my respect very early on in my legal career. In every case with Kyle, he displayed professionalism and a vast knowledge of the law; I knew his client's were in good hands. Now, as a private practitioner, I've had the opportunity to work alongside Kyle on various types of cases. He's a zealous advocate for his client's, and a true mentor to me. He is highly recommended."

"Kyle possesses the good qualities to realize his client's goals. Numerous times his persistance has been the turning point in a pivotal case. On the otherhand whenever diplomacy is needed, Kyle is able to make oppossing advocates see his client's point of view with a few simple words or adage."

DUI and DWI lawyer | Sep 16

Relationship: Family member

"Kyle is an amazing lawyer. He is smart, works hard, and has a heart for his clients. I know of many lawyers, including me, who regularly consult with him on many legal issues, not just DWI matters, because of his legal skills and practical wisdom. West publishing selected him as an author on the only book in Texas on Texas DWI law. The book is the "go to book" for lawyers across Texas. If a person is accused of a DWI related offense in Texas, they could get no better lawyer to defend them. If accused of any crime, you want him in your corner. He is a fighter and winning is his only acceptable outcome."

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"Kyle is an outstanding and highly professional trial attorney. As a former prosecutor, he knows the ins and outs of the system. He is so well respected as a trial attorney that he was asked shortly after leaving the D.A.'s office to participate in a major felony jury trial. He is a student of the law and always makes sure that his clients' constitutional rights are fully protected. I have personally tried several cases as co-counsel with Kyle; he has great instincts in the courtroom and knows how to get results. He's a guy you want in your corner."

"100% first class representation. If you've been charged with DWI, make Kyle Simpson the first person you call. Mr. Simpson supports his clients through every step of the DWI process: from securing their release from jail, to obtaining them an occupational driver's license, to defending them at trial, and beyond. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!"
