Allen, TX Criminal Defense Lawyer

Criminal Lawyer for DWI, Drug Crimes, and Violent Crimes in Allen

An arrest and prosecution on criminal charges can be a significant turning point in a person's life. These cases often carry implications that extend far beyond the courtroom. While a conviction can lead to a prison sentence, significant fines, probation, and other penalties, simply being arrested can affect someone's personal reputation, and a criminal record may limit their future job opportunities and affect other areas of their life.

While the justice system in Texas is supposed to be fair, defendants are often at a disadvantage when dealing with police officers, prosecutors, judges, and other officials. To level the playing field, it is important to work with a skilled and experienced criminal defense attorney. At Law Offices of Biederman & Burleson P.L.L.C., our lawyers can provide invaluable guidance, advocacy, and legal representation for those who have been accused of crimes. We work to help our clients resolve their criminal cases successfully while fighting to protect their rights at all times. We can assist with a wide variety of cases, including:

DWI

Driving While Intoxicated (DWI) is one of the most common criminal offenses people in Texas may face. Police officers vigilantly monitor the roads, watching for impaired driving and arresting people who are suspected of being under the influence of alcohol or controlled substances. Defense against DWI charges requires a nuanced understanding of Texas law. Our attorneys can analyze the validity of field sobriety tests, challenge the accuracy of breathalyzer and blood tests, and question the procedures followed by police during arrests, helping our clients avoid DWI convictions.

Drug Crimes

Drug-related offenses can range from simple possession to more severe charges like trafficking and distribution. Our Allen drug crime defense lawyers understand the complexities of drug laws in Texas. We can help address issues such as the legality of searches and seizures that led to the discovery of drugs, the classification of the substances involved, and the intent associated with the possession.

Violent Crimes

Crimes involving violence or harm to others, including assault, domestic violence, and homicide, can lead to severe penalties in Texas. Defending against such charges often involves dissecting the evidence, challenging eyewitness testimonies, and presenting alternative narratives to ensure that the accused's rights are upheld and that they receive a fair trial.

Property Crimes

Offenses involving property may include theft, burglary, vandalism, arson, or other crimes in which a person is accused of taking or damaging something owned by someone else. Our criminal defense attorneys will review the allegations against our clients, exploring defenses such as the absence of intent, mistaken identity, or rightful ownership.

Federal Crimes

Charges prosecuted at the federal level, including white collar crimes, drug trafficking across state lines, internet crimes, and money laundering, may be investigated by various federal agencies and handled in federal courts. Representation from an attorney who has experience defending clients against federal crimes is necessary in these situations. At Law Offices of Biederman & Burleson P.L.L.C., we have the knowledge and skills needed to successfully defend clients in federal courts.

Juvenile Crimes

Juvenile offenders are subject to a different set of legal standards, and cases handled in the juvenile court system typically focus more on rehabilitation than punishment. Our attorneys provide legal representation in juvenile crime cases, and we work to shield young offenders from the lifelong consequences of mistakes made while their brains are still developing.

Expunction and Non-Disclosure

Beyond defending against immediate charges, our criminal defense attorneys also help our clients clear their criminal records through expunction and non-disclosure. Expunction allows for the complete removal of certain criminal charges from a person's record, while non-disclosure seals criminal records from public view. These options can provide a fresh start for those who have paid their debt to society.
