Criminal Defense Case Results in Bexar, TX

Charge

Aggravated Assault - Family Violence (Serious Bodily Injury)

Location

Bexar County, 187th DC

Allegations

Officers responded to a domestic dispute after our client had already called 911 and waited outside. Later, the complainant claimed a broken foot and serious injury, elevating the case to a felony. We attacked the credibility of that claim by compiling the client’s 911 account, social media posts attributing the injury to a separate skiing incident, and photos showing her moving normally soon after. We pushed for medical records and highlighted inconsistencies between statements and video clips. Confronted with these problems, the prosecution reduced the charge and agreed to deferred probation.

Charge

Assault - Family Violence

Location

Bexar County, CC13

Allegations

Responding officers to a domestic dispute arrested our client after the other party pointed to a facial mark and blamed her. We got involved immediately and compiled the client’s messages, videos, and call logs documenting prior volatility and her efforts to seek help. A third party on the phone during the incident reported statements consistent with the mark being self inflicted, and there were no injuries consistent with striking. We organized the contradictions in the complainant’s accounts and the absence of corroboration. After we laid out these credibility problems to the prosecutor, the case was dismissed.

Charge

Assault - Family Violence

Location

Bexar County, None

Allegations

Our client was arrested after a domestic argument at a residence led to an allegation of assault family violence. Officers relied on an initial statement, but we obtained home surveillance showing the complainant grabbing for a holstered firearm and our client using a single open hand strike to break contact and retreat. We secured that clip, compared it to the reports, and highlighted the self defense context and minimal injury evidence. The complainant later told authorities she did not wish to pursue the case. Confronted with that record, the prosecution dismissed the charge.

Charge

DWI (BAC Over .15)

Location

Bexar County, County Court-at-Law 9

Allegations

The driver was stopped for alleged swerving and arrested for DWI after roadside testing. At the station they provided a breath sample the officer described as near the legal threshold, yet the case was filed with an over .15 enhancement. We obtained video from the stop, scrutinized the stated basis for the detention, and highlighted that the observed driving did not amount to a specific, hazardous traffic violation. We also attacked breath testing procedures and the charging inconsistency. The prosecution dismissed the case.

Charge

Unlawful Restraint

Location

Bexar County, CC7

Allegations

Police responded to a domestic dispute at a residence. Based on a brief struggle over a phone and an allegation that the other person’s exit was blocked, the client was arrested for unlawful restraint. Our team moved quickly to address restrictive bond conditions and obtained the case materials to test the elements of the offense, noting that officers documented no significant injury and that the encounter was brief and disputed. The complaining witness later advised they did not wish to proceed. The state dismissed the case.

Charge

Criminal Mischief

Location

Bexar County, County Court-at-Law 15

Allegations

Police responded to a domestic dispute where the complaining witness claimed our client damaged household property, leading to a criminal mischief charge. We secured the police materials and documented problems in the account, including photographs taken immediately afterward showing no injuries to our client's hands consistent with breaking glass. We organized character references and a clear timeline. The complaining witness later declined to cooperate and provided a non‑prosecution statement. The State dismissed the case.

Charge

DWI (BAC Over .15)

Location

Bexar County, County Court-at-Law 8

Allegations

After a single-vehicle crash, the client was taken to a hospital and a blood sample was drawn. Months later, a warrant based on those results led to an arrest during a routine traffic stop. We challenged the basis for the draw and warrant, scrutinized the handling of the blood evidence, and pressed the state about the delay. With no prior record, the client also completed alcohol education early. Leveraging those issues and mitigation, we negotiated away the BAC enhancement and secured a reduction to a lower charge with deferred probation.

Charge

DWI - First Offense

Location

Bexar County, CC 11

Allegations

Police responded to a single-vehicle crash, not a traffic stop. The client performed portions of the field tests, declined breath, and a blood draw was taken by warrant. We pulled the 911 dispatch, body and dash video, the warrant affidavit, and the lab packet. The footage and paperwork showed gaps in proof of who was driving and problems with the instructions and refusal warnings. We pressed those weaknesses at the license hearing and in negotiations. The state agreed to reduce the DWI to a lesser misdemeanor, avoiding a DWI conviction.

Charge

Terroristic Threat

Location

Bexar County, County Court-at-Law 13

Allegations

Police alleged our client threatened a former partner during a driving encounter, then later threatened another person while passing a residence. The client consistently said no words were exchanged, the windows stayed up, and he only went around after being brake checked, then drove past without stopping. We dissected the police report and probable cause affidavit and showed there was no reliable evidence of a communicated threat or imminent fear beyond disputed statements. We pressed these weaknesses with the prosecutor and prepared for trial. The state dismissed the case.

Charge

Violation of a Protective Order (Misdemeanor)

Location

Bexar County, County Court-at-Law 13

Allegations

Our client was accused of violating a protective order after officers found them at a residence they were ordered to avoid following a prior arrest. The client had returned to collect belongings, and the other party later came back and stayed there, an argument ensued, and police were called. We obtained the order, offense report, 911 audio, and bodycam, and compared the accounts. The materials showed mutual contact at the home and a disputed living arrangement, with key inconsistencies in the complainant’s statements. We presented those proof problems to the prosecutor, and the case was dismissed.

Charge

DWI (BAC Over .15)

Location

Bexar County, County Court-at-Law 2

Allegations

Officers responded to a 911 report of a car near a residence and alleged the driver struck a tree before arresting her for DWI with a breath test over .15. She had pulled over to rest and was taken to a hospital, so no roadside tests occurred. We secured the bodycam, dash video, and dispatch logs, which showed no actual crash, only low branches brushing the vehicle. We also examined the breath machine records and how the specimen was obtained and warned. Leveraging those issues and proof of completed DWI classes, we negotiated deferred adjudication.

Charge

Robbery (Felony)

Location

Bexar County, DC379

Allegations

The client was arrested on a robbery case that was later booked with a very high bond. We scrutinized the reports and assembled a detailed mitigation packet, including strong character letters from family and an employer, highlighting no prior record and a structured plan. The probation interview placed the client at low to moderate risk. To address concerns about influences, we proposed strict conditions such as GPS monitoring and home confinement. Using this, we secured deferred adjudication, avoiding a conviction.
