    I received an innocent enough email last night from a "student" asking some questions regarding how I became a criminal defense attorney as well as more personal questions asking where I grew up and the like. I enjoy helping a curious student about ...

    The Lawyer Briefcase

    I finally pulled the trigger and bought a new briefcase for work this weekend. I had not bought one in a few years, so I figured it was about time. Frankly, I thought I would never buy another briefcase because I figured I would not have a need when ...

    Wearing Pink for Breast Cancer

    Saturday in the Houston Galleria

    One of the benefits of having my office in the Williams Tower is the adjacent Water Wall Park. Frequently, I see people taking pictures, enjoying the day with their families. When I came into the office today I noticed that the Water Wall was not ...

    Judge Goodhart makes good on her promise

    I talked about the seminar that I attended a few weeks ago where Judge Goodhart and Judge Fleming spoke to the Harris County, Texas criminal defense. Their purpose was to give criminal defense lawyers some insight into how they will be running their ...

    You Should Stand in Line

    One of my clients was 5 minutes to court today because of the incredible line outside to enter the Harris County Criminal Justice Center. The lines outside the courthouse are notorious. However, this week it has been worse because one of the ...

    National Night Out 2010

    I took some time to meet some of my neighbors on National Night Out. It is nice to take some time to talk to people that I have not seen in a while or merely wave to as I walk my dog. We had the pleasure of having Houston Police Chief, Charles ...
