DWI Dismissed!
I hired Mr. Porter to represent for Driving While Intoxicated First Offense in Georgetown. He came highly recommended from a prosecutor friend and my expectations were exceeded! His office was a pleasure to deal with. Friendly, professional, top notch and results speak for themselves. Thank you, Trey Porter Law! Highly recommend 5/5!

Outstanding
Mr. Trey Porter and team were outstanding. I hired Mr. Porter after a first ever arrest (DUI) in Fredericksburg. I don’t live there, and was only visiting when arrested. It was an ordeal. Fantastic communication. Incredible result. Life is back to normal and this awful incident is behind me. Highly recommend Trey Porter for criminal defense matters.

First Class Service
First class. This law firm is TOP! I hired them for a very embarrassing, out of character situation that occurred in Austin. Communication was perfect. Result was perfect: dismissal. Trey Porter is a fantastic lawyer and I recommend him to one and all without reservation.

5 STAR!
I hired Mr. Porter to represent my son in a DUI case. I was worried a conviction would ruin his future. Mr. Porter and the whole office were friendly, thorough, and poised throughout. They respond to text and calls almost instantly. We are just finishing the expunction process after the case was dismissed!!! I am grateful to Mr. Porter and recommend him to one and all. Excellent from start to finish. Thank you TPL!

The BEST
Hiring Porter for my case was the best move I made. Office staff was conscientious and professional — as were other attorneys. Porter was friendly and knowledgeable and after 8 months my case was dismissed. I wanted to win and we won. Thank you TPL!

Professional & Outstanding
Mr. Porter was outstanding. I was charged with DUI in Round Rock. First ever charge for anything. Mr. Porter’s firm came highly recommended from a colleague and they exceeded my expectations… communication, professionalism, and of course end-result. I got a dismissal and I’m thankful! I recommend Mr. Trey Porter as an excellent lawyer.

Excellent
Mr. Porter came highly recommended. As a licensed professional, I was fearful one mistake was going to wreck my career. Porter was honest and straightforward from our first call, and I couldn’t be happier with the overall result. I recommend this attorney and firm for all criminal matters.

TOPS!
Mr Trey was TOPS for my criminal charge expunction. I made a bad decision 11 years ago and was lucky to avoid a final conviction… BUT the charge kept showing up on my background checks. Mr Trey & team were able to quickly and discreetly have this scrubbed from my record. I never even had to attend court. Recommend 10/10 and well worth the money.

Fantastic!
Mr. Porter came highly recommended and was fantastic. He represented me against Texas in a DWI in Travis County. First arrest. First experience with the law. No jail time. No conviction. I am beyond satisfied! Hope I never need legal representation again, but if I do, I’m calling Trey Porter.

Best Lawyer
Mr. Trey Porter is the best lawyer in Texas. I really believed my situation was hopeless. I had too much to drink - crash - minor injuries - DWI .015 HIGHER. My security clearance, and ability to provide for my family were on the line. Mr. Porter and his team were professional and smooth the whole way through. I don’t know how they did it, but they did: dismissal, case closed. Well worth the fee and a trusted advisor for life. Thank you, Mr. Porter!

Dismissal - Peace of Mind
Mr. Porter is a phenomenal lawyer. I made a huge mistake and got a Public Intoxication on 6th. I’m in nursing school and thought this one mistake was going to define my life. Thanks to Mr. Porter it’s dismissed and getting expunctioned and my life is back on track. I HIGHLY recommend Trey Porter attorney at law.

Serious Attorney - Great Result
Mr. Porter is a serious attorney. All of my interactions with his office staff were very professional. I appreciate his directness and legal knowledge. I require a security clearance for work, and so my outcome options were very limited. After months of COVID delay, Mr. Porter delivered — charges dismissed! He’s worth the money, and I’m so grateful and satisfied with my outcome. Thank you Mr. Porter!
