Excellent lawyer

Mr. Gentry is an excellent lawyer and does his best to fight for you with miminal punishment. He represented my husband with a family case. It was one mistake of ours that shouldn't have happened and because of him we were forgiven and case was dismissed. This is a reliable lawyer!

5 Star Rated Attorney

I can't thank Richard Gentry enough for all the help he has brought for me and my family. I literally had 7 traffic tickets last year and the DPS tried to suspend my DL. Richard stepped in and settled everything for me, no hassle at all. Then my gf was in trouble for some tickets as well, and Rich...ard was able to come to the rescue again. Every time I need this man, he is always available, or calls me right back. I would rate him 10 stars if that was an option.

A Tremendous Help

I got a DWI in college and was terrified, having no idea what to do or how to handle it. I hired Richard based on a referral from a friend and he was everything I could have asked for. He was responsive and there with me every step of the way through the entire ordeal. He not only helped me in court ...but also the after parts with community service requirements, classes, and just general advice on how to handle my new situation. He had all the answers I needed and I couldn't have made it through this without him.

Got a traffic ticket? Richard can help!

I got a traffic ticket on Mopac several months ago. Unfortunately I was caught in a speed trap and I was going over 20 mph over the limit, and it happened to be in a work zone. Apparently they crack down pretty hard on those types of speeding tickets, and I was facing a hefty fine and 10-20 hours... of community service. Richard was able to work with the courts to not only help me avoid community service, and if I keep my nose clean for the next 6 months without any traffic tickets, it will not stay on my record. All thanks to Richard!

So Grateful!!

I cannot thank this attorney enough for advising me with a misdemeanor charge. He took my call at around 2 o'clock am and immediately advised me what to do. He took a meeting with me the very next morning and my charges were dropped later that week. I would have been absolutely lost without his advis...e and would most likely still be dealing with the charge.
