Knowledgeable, thoughtful, and supportive!
Being accused of a crime is something I never would’ve imagined could happen to me. Geoffrey and Justin at Cofer and Connelly were there for me every step of the way. They were incredibly professional, thorough, and kind. Justin, the lead investigator on my case, used his many years of experience in ...

Saved My Life
I was badly in need of a lawyer. After researching multiple people I came across Geoffrey Puryear and was sold by his long list of credentials. This was the best decision I could have ever made. Geoffrey and Sarah were there every step of the way to help make the case as easy and stress free as possi...

Truly Amazing
I could not be happier with Cofer & Connelly. Simply the best criminal defense team in Austin. Jeoffrey and his superb team consistently provided updates, and quickly responded to all my calls and emails. I felt there was no way to improve the probable outcome of my case. I took a chance on Jeoff...

Geoffrey is a positive, sincere professional. He provided the legal service that I required, and worked to favorably resolve my case. I would highly recommend him to personally face any legal challenge an individual is presented with.

Awesome Attorney
Last year while visiting Amarillo my husband was arrested on various serious charges in Pottery county. I was distraught, while searching for attorney’s in other cities I stumbled across Geoerffy. I can’t explain how grateful I am to Geoerffy. While representing my husband, He was very professional, ...
"Geoffrey is a remarkable lawyer. He is patient, thorough, and works diligently to achieve the best outcome for every client. He is also a former judge with experience few lawyers have. I highly endorse him for any criminal case."
"I have known Judge Puryear for well a decade. He is an exceptional attorney and experienced courtroom advocate. Lots of lawyers talk about trial skills, but Geoffrey is the real deal. He has tried some of the most complex and important criminal cases in the State of Texas. He has a tremendous record of success and knows how to win in the courtroom. Additionally, Geoffrey is a man of great integrity and principle. He upholds the highest ethical standards of our profession. It is with great enthusiasm I endorse Judge Puryear."
"I endorse this lawyer. I have known Mr. Puryear for the duration of his career. I have worked on cases with him and against him and I know him to be a dedicated and skilled trial attorney. He knows the law and knows how to get great results in the courtroom. His clients are lucky to have him by their side. His litigation skills are definitely a benefit to his clients."
"You'll have a hard time finding an attorney with a wider range of criminal law experience than Geoffrey. From simple DWIs to complex felonies, from fine-only offenses to those carrying a possible life sentence, he can handle any criminal matter a client may be facing. Unlike the vast majority of defense attorneys, he possesses a unique ability to analyze a case from the perspective of a prosecutor, a defense attorney, and also a judge, because he's been all three. He also understands that being an effective defense attorney is more than just knowledge of the law and a powerful courtroom presence, it also requires thoughful consideration of each client's situation and tailoring his representation to address individual needs. I wholeheartedly endorse Geoffrey and would recommend him to anyone currently entagled in the legal system."
