Criminal Defense Case Results in Bexar, TX

Charge

Unlawful Carrying of a Weapon

Location

Bexar County, County Court-at-Law 12

Allegations

A traffic stop for a lane change without signaling led officers to question our client. The client immediately told the officer there was an unloaded pistol secured in the center console. After an intoxication investigation, police added an unlawful carrying allegation. Our team obtained the videos and reports, scrutinized the basis for the stop, the timing and manner of the firearm's discovery, and whether the facts satisfied each element of UCW. We emphasized the voluntary disclosure and evidentiary gaps. The state dismissed the case.

Charge

DWI (BAC Over .15)

Location

Bexar County, County Court-at-Law 1

Allegations

After a crash with a commercial truck following a holiday gathering, the client was investigated for DWI. Officers had the driver move the vehicle to a nearby lot, conducted limited field tests, then obtained a breath sample over .15. We pulled every video and maintenance record, and highlighted the contradiction between allowing driving and claiming extreme impairment. With no prior history and proactive class completion, we pressed the state. The prosecutor agreed to drop the .15 enhancement and reduce the case to a lower DWI with deferred probation.

Charge

Assault - Family Violence (Strangulation)

Location

Bexar County, Criminal, District Court

Allegations

Following a domestic argument at a residence, officers entered and arrested our client after the complainant alleged strangulation and showed markings. The client consistently denied any contact with the neck. We obtained discovery and dispatch records, scrutinized the timeline, and pointed out that the complainant had already left before police came inside, raising questions about the basis for entry and the reliability of the account. We pressed these issues with the prosecutor, and after the complainant later declined to cooperate, the felony was dismissed.

Charge

Public Intoxication

Location

Bexar County, San \u200bAntonio Municipal Court

Allegations

During a work trip, the client became separated from friends after a few drinks. Officers later found the client asleep in a public area, transported them to a sobering facility, and issued a citation for public intoxication. We got involved quickly, obtained the citation and court setting, and coordinated appearances so the client would not have to travel. We scrutinized the officer’s account of the encounter and highlighted the client’s clean record and cooperation. After negotiations, the prosecutor agreed to deferred probation, avoiding a permanent conviction upon successful completion.

Charge

DWI - First Offense

Location

Bexar County, County Court-at-Law, 2

Allegations

After being cut off by another driver and striking a guardrail, our client was investigated for DWI. They admitted to drinking and attempted field sobriety tests, later telling the officer they had not passed. At the jail, a breath test was recorded and the case was filed as a high BAC charge, even though the client recalled lower readings. We scrutinized the stop, the administration of the tests, and the leap to an over .15 allegation. Using those weaknesses, we negotiated with the prosecutor and secured a reduction of the charge.

Charge

Stalking

Location

Bexar County, 227th District Court

Allegations

Police filed a stalking case arising from a strained dating relationship. While our client was on house arrest, the complainant repeatedly came to his residence, including an incident documented by responding officers who escorted her away. We gathered photos and witness information showing she initiated contact after the alleged conduct and compared that to her earlier statements. Taking a trial posture, we pressed the credibility gaps with the DA. Faced with those problems, the State dismissed the case.

Charge

Assault - Family Violence (Strangulation)

Location

Bexar County, 227th District Court

Allegations

The client was charged with family violence strangulation after a domestic dispute, based largely on the complainant’s initial statement. Our investigation showed the pair continued their relationship for months afterward, with the complainant repeatedly returning to the residence, including visits while the client was on a GPS monitor. We secured photos and police responses documenting her presence and highlighted major inconsistencies in her accounts. After we pressed those credibility issues and signaled readiness for trial, the state dismissed the case.

Charge

Assault Causing Bodily Injury

Location

Bexar County, County Court at Law 5

Allegations

Our client was arrested after a dispute at an indoor recreation venue turned physical. Officers labeled him the aggressor based on a partial video, even though the other man advanced while gripping a club. We dug into the evidence, securing body cam and surveillance, pressed for missing camera angles, and highlighted a witness who reported the complainant was acting aggressively. Framing the case as self defense, we rejected a plea and went to trial. After exposing gaps and inconsistencies on cross, the jury found him not guilty.

Charge

Assault - Family Violence (Misdemeanor)

Location

Bexar County, County Court-at-Law 13

Allegations

A domestic argument at a residence led to a family violence allegation and a warrant. The police report relied on the complainant's account, and there were no documented injuries. We moved quickly to gather third-party witness statements from people who were present and to secure the 911 audio and officer recordings. Those materials supported that the dispute was verbal only, and the complainant later indicated she did not wish to pursue the case. We presented the credibility issues to the prosecutor, and the misdemeanor assault charge was dismissed.

Charge

Accident Involving Damage to Vehicle (Over $200)

Location

Bexar County, County Court-at-Law 2

Allegations

The client was accused of leaving the scene after a collision that caused property damage over $200. The incident followed ongoing harassment by another person who confronted the client, pulled on the car door, and had an associate block the client’s vehicle, striking it first. We obtained surveillance video, photos of prior damage, messages reflecting threats, and a supporting witness statement. We showed that the client left to reach safety and that the complainant initiated and escalated the encounter. After reviewing our materials, the prosecution dismissed the case.

Charge

Criminal Mischief

Location

Bexar County, County Court-at-Law, 2

Allegations

Police charged our client with criminal mischief after a parking lot confrontation where the other party's vehicle was struck. The trouble started when that person waited outside the client's workplace, pulled on the client's door handle, and had a second car block the exit, after previously keying the client's car. We gathered surveillance video from the location, phone recordings, and a witness statement documenting the stalking, the door pulling, the blocking maneuver, and the prior vandalism. We presented the full record and argued the impact occurred while the client was trying to escape a threatening situation. Facing those facts and credibility issues, the prosecutor dismissed the case.

Charge

Violation of a Protective Order (Felony)

Location

Bexar County, Pre-Indictment Court

Allegations

Police arrested our client for a felony violation of a protective order after an argument at a residence, even though the order allowed contact with a no harm condition. We stepped in before indictment, obtained the 911 audio, body cam, and reports, and documented the actual terms of the order. The complainant signed an affidavit of non-prosecution, which we presented to the prosecutor. We also moved to relax bond so the client could return to work. Confronted with our submission and the complainant’s lack of cooperation, the state dismissed the case in pre-indictment court.
