Criminal Defense Case Results in Bexar, TX

Charge

Assault - Family Violence by Strangulation

Location

Bexar County, Criminal, District Court

Allegations

An argument at a residence got physical. The complainant reported hair pulling and that the client grabbed her neck with one hand, and she also struck him with an object. At the station, the client gave a statement admitting parts of the incident. We dug into the police reports and custodial statements, emphasizing the mutual physical confrontation and the lack of reliable evidence to prove a strangulation offense beyond those statements. After sustained negotiations before indictment, the prosecutor dismissed the case.

Charge

Assault - Class C

Location

Bexar County, Justice of the Peace Precint 1

Allegations

Police responded to a domestic dispute after both sides contacted 911. The complainant alleged the client spit on them, and officers issued a Class C assault citation after a brief detention, with no bodily injury alleged. We obtained the police report and compared the accounts, underscoring how little evidence existed beyond the initial statement. The complaining witness later indicated they did not wish to proceed, which we documented for the prosecutor. Confronted with credibility issues and a thin record, the State dismissed the case.

Charge

Assault - Family Violence

Location

Bexar County, County Court-at-Law, 13

Allegations

Police arrested our client after a family argument at a residence escalated following drinking. Officers noted redness on the relative, but our client also had injuries and called 911 for medical help. We pushed for the 911 audio, photos, and body cam, and documented conflicts between the initial report and later accounts. We obtained a modification of release conditions to allow travel and nonharmful contact. The relative later signed an affidavit of non prosecution, the client completed an anger management class, and the prosecutor dismissed the case.

Charge

Unlawful Disclosure or Promotion of Intimate Visual Material

Location

Bexar County, DC187

Allegations

Following a domestic dispute, the complainant reported that our client threatened to share intimate images that had been exchanged during their relationship. He had forwarded the photos back to a phone she used, not realizing it synced to a work account, and nothing was ever posted publicly. We gathered the message history and context showing no actual publication and highlighted the ongoing co-parenting issues. After multiple settings and negotiations, the State agreed to deferred probation, keeping a conviction off his record.

Charge

DWI - First Offense

Location

Bexar County, None

Allegations

Police approached our client while dealing with a flat tire and initiated a DWI investigation. The client agreed to a blood draw at a hospital, which later came back at 0.00 for alcohol. Despite that result, the officer pursued a drug screen that dragged on for months without clarity. We secured the lab documentation, pressed for full discovery, and highlighted the weak indicators of impairment given the mechanical issue and how the roadside evaluation was handled. Meanwhile we monitored for any warrant activity and kept pressure on the reviewing attorney to make a charging decision. With no reliable evidence of intoxication, the case was dismissed.

Charge

Assault - Class C

Location

Bexar County, None

Allegations

After a domestic dispute at a residence, the complainant alleged our client threatened them and claimed he spat on them. Deputies issued a Class C citation for assault by threat, and no physical injury was reported. We reviewed the incident reports and gathered subsequent communications showing the complainant did not wish to prosecute. We highlighted inconsistencies in the accounts and the lack of corroborating evidence, making clear we were ready to litigate. The prosecution dismissed the case.

Charge

Public Intoxication

Location

Bexar County, San Antonio Municipal Court 4

Allegations

Our client was arrested for public intoxication after a dispute with a bouncer outside a bar, and officers documented signs of intoxication and confrontational language. The client lived hours away, so we immediately filed representation, reset the appearance date, and obtained the body camera and arrest paperwork. We compared the officer’s narrative to the video and challenged whether the elements of the offense were met. After focused negotiations with the prosecutor, we secured deferred probation, keeping a conviction off the record upon successful completion.

Charge

Harassment

Location

Bexar County, County Court-at-Law 5

Allegations

The client was arrested after a dispute at a campground where he admitted making a rude comment about a manager and was accused of following the manager’s spouse. He denied any stalking, and the arrest relied mainly on brief encounters and a few witness statements. We secured the police report, compared the accounts line by line, and challenged whether the statutory elements of harassment were satisfied. We engaged the prosecutor early, emphasized the lack of probable cause and credibility issues, and made clear we were prepared to litigate. The state dismissed the case in full.

Charge

Continuous Family Violence

Location

Bexar County, Criminal District Court

Allegations

Officers responded to a domestic dispute and arrested our client for alleged continuous family violence, citing more than one reported incident. A strict no contact order and electronic monitoring were imposed. We moved quickly to obtain the record and worked with the complaining witness, who signed an affidavit of non‑prosecution and confirmed her injuries were from an unrelated fall, not an assault. We presented that to the prosecutor and pushed to relax bond conditions. With a non‑cooperating witness and weak proof, the state dismissed the case.

Charge

Collision Involving Damage to Vehicle (Over $200)

Location

Bexar County, County Court-at-Law 1

Allegations

Another driver followed and accused the client of causing damage after a minor encounter. No officer ever responded, the client was never ticketed, and the client’s vehicle showed no visible damage. Months later a warrant was issued and a case was filed for collision involving damage. We moved fast to clear the warrant, secured the client’s video of the exchange, and underscored the lack of corroborating evidence and credibility problems in the complaint. Faced with these weaknesses, the prosecution dismissed the case.

Charge

Assault - Family Violence by Impeding Breath or Circulation

Location

Bexar County, Criminal District Court

Allegations

The case arose from a domestic dispute at a residence. The client reported he was trying to leave when a struggle occurred, and the complainant went to the hospital the next day and alleged strangulation. We pushed for full discovery and built a timeline from texts, call logs, and police contacts that showed repeated outreach from the complainant despite a no contact order and conflicts with the initial account. We also obtained third-party video and messages reflecting prior volatility. Confronted with these credibility problems, the state dismissed the case.

Charge

DWI - First Offense

Location

Bexar County, None

Allegations

After a late-night traffic stop for alleged swerving, the client performed field sobriety tests and later provided a breath sample below .15. We secured all videos and reports, pressed for missing dash footage of the stop, and found the investigation was led by a very new officer who gave flawed instructions on key tests. The footage showed the client did not appear as impaired as reported. We prepared suppression arguments on the stop and the SFSTs, and used that leverage in negotiations. The prosecution agreed to reduce the charge, and the client received deferred probation on the lesser offense.
