A criminal arrest is stressful. You could be incarcerated. In the age of background checks, even a misdemeanor conviction can ruin a career.

My name is Fred Dahr, and I am a Houston based criminal defense lawyer. I practice in Harris County and throughout the state of Texas. I handle misdemeanors and felonies in state and federal court as well as appeals, habeas corpus, and clearing record cases.

I believe the best way to hire an attorney is to tell them the facts of your case and listen to their strategy. I invite you to contact me now to discuss your case and hear how I can help resolve it.

Or, you can read more about my practice and knowledge of Texas Criminal Defense Law.

Texas is tough on crime. When you are charged with a crime in Texas, you will face strict laws and a prosecutor paid to convict you.

I can help you because I am:

           Thorough—too many lawyers take the arresting officer’s police report as the truth. I investigate, examine, and challenge the state’s evidence.            Knowledgeable—I hold two advanced degrees from two of the best schools in the nation. I am current on the law and use my knowledge to develop legal defenses and properly advise you.            Aggressive—I will find any basis to try to win your case.            Accessible—I am easy to reach by phone or email. I will explain difficult legal concepts so that you understand them. ]]> http://www.texasdefenselaw.com/results/feed/ 0 http://www.texasdefenselaw.com/here-to-help/ http://www.texasdefenselaw.com/here-to-help/#comments Fri, 24 Sep 2010 11:02:03 +0000 admin http://www.texasdefenselaw.com/?p=45 more...]]>

Knowledge of the Law

Rather than blog about my personal opinions, this site contains informative articles that demonstrate my knowledge about Texas Criminal Law.

If you are new to the criminal justice system, I recommend reading my Guide to Texas Criminal Cases and the #1 Mistake Defendants Make. Considering plea bargaining? Please see Warnings About Pleas. There is a detailed explanation about Deferred Adjudication and Regular Probation. Finally, the Clearing Your Record page contains information for people interested in sealing or expunging their criminal history.
