Additional Crimes That We Represent

Sex Crimes

Sex crimes are serious accusations that we will work aggressively with you in order to work towards the best possible outcome for the case. Shawn Paschall worked in the Crimes Against Children Unit of the Tarrant County District Attorney’s Office. He knows how to defend the cases he used to prosecute. Experience matters!

Expungement

In some cases, you may be able to have a charge expunged from your record after a certain amount of time or under very specific circumstances. We can help you determine if you are able to, and if so, will handle the expunction from start to finish.

Probation Revocation

The terms of your probation are very specific, and a violation can result in the judge applying stricter terms to your probation, or possible imprisonment. If the state files a motion to revoke your probation, a warrant will be issued. We can get you out and start working on a defense to your revocation.

Domestic Violence

Domestic violence charges can stem from a wide range of circumstances, and it is important that the individual charged is able to clearly state their side of the story. Many police officers only take down what the alleged victim has to say about the fight. We will make sure that your side is heard. We will fight your charge!

Weapon Charges

Texas weapon charges can have serious consequences, and it is important that you work with an experienced Fort Worth criminal defense firm in order to navigate your case in a way that maximizes your chances of a good outcome.

White Collar Crimes

The term “white-collar crime” covers a wide range of non-violent crimes relating to corporate and business-related crimes such as Ponzi schemes, insider trading, identity theft, and forgery.

Juvenile Crime

In many cases, a juvenile criminal record is sealed on the offender’s 18th birthday, but regardless these charges bust be taken seriously and approached with a strong defense.

Underage Offense

Underage possession of alcohol and other related offenses can cause problems for the minor such as probation, fines, impacts on their education, driver’s license and more. It is important to fight these charges.

Protective Order

A protective order, otherwise known as a restraining order, is a court-ordered mandate for an individual to stay away from another. Violations of these orders can result in things like imprisonment and other penalties.
