Practice areas
I am primarily a criminal trial and appellate attorney. I have tried countless felony and misdemeanor trials at every level of punishment. I have authored and argued many appeals in front of the 7th Court of appeals. In addition, I have applied for post-conviction writs of habeas corpus for citizens convicted of crimes. I have also worked to expunge records for many citizens.
19 years
I have represented parents and other family members on all different types of family issues. From establishing a parent-child relationship, to child support enforcement, to attorney general and CPS cases, to adoption, I have represented individuals who need their parental rights protected.

I endorse this lawyer's work. Wes and I went to law school together and he was one of the brightest in our class. All of us were amazed at him being in law school as he was the youngest in the class, at least two years younger than most, and this was related to him finishing undergraduate work at an earlier age. Enough of that... if you are looking for a lawyer in the Giddings, Texas area, you definitely should call Wes.
