Highly recommed Shawn Dick and his firm

We highly recommend Shawn Dick and his firm. Shawn is a very experienced lawyer and was able to help our family. He went to bat for our us, knew the law and was able to get us the outcome that we needed. We are grateful for his sincerity, kindness and his high level of experience with the law and... the Williamson County courts.

Posted by Carol | November 08, 2015 | Hired Attorney | Criminal Defense

Without question, Shawn is the one of the best criminal attorneys in the State of Texas! And, he will only get better!

We hired Shawn to represent my grandson who was originally charged with felony possession of a controlled substance. Through Shawn's very diligent hard word, he was successful in getting this charge reduced to misdemeanor, thus keeping my grandson's life from being "ruined" at the age of 17 by being... convicted of a felony.

ruined my life and my daughter's

I hired Shawn Dick because of his background experience. What I did was wrong in breaking the law in the first place. I obtained a misdemeanor domestic violence. Mr. Dick could not stop the unethical antics of Ms. Donna Bloom and the Williamson County Crisis Center. Mr. Dick and my bonds company both... agreed what I did was wrong but could not stop the lies, manipulation, and spiteful antics of the Crisis Center attorney. He was also afraid of my prosecutor who used to be a good friend of his. I was enhanced to a felony in 3 short months. My coworkers, family and I were all harassed from my ex-wife, her attorney and the crisis center without any protection from Mr. Dick for over 6 months. Ultimately Mr. Dick and his office partner Mr. Morales talked me into a 5 year plea bargain and into going to prison. I regret that decision, I regret hiring Mr. Dick and that decision sadly affected my family's and my life. I would have hired a different lawyer with a different outcome if I had it to do again. Mr. Dick had no courage against the other lawyers, was out smarted and had no conscience about how his lack of representation affected people's lives.

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I had the opportunity to work on a case with Shawn and was very impressed. Not only was Shawn knowledgeable about the law but he was responsive to both the client we represented and to my office whenever we had any questions or issues. I would gladly work on a case with Shawn again."

Criminal defense lawyer | Feb 01

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"I endorse this lawyer. Shawn is never satisfied with the State's offer. He will work tirelessly at wearing down the prosecutor's resolve on a case and isn't afraid of taking every matter to the Elected District Attorney of Williamson County, himself. He is always looking for a creative solution that satisfies the client's needs."

  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
