With decades of courtroom experience, our attorneys anticipate challenges, aggressively advocate for clients, and leave no detail overlooked. Every case is prepared for trial, even if it ultimately resolves through negotiation.
Award-Winning Attorneys
Although we have a large team of attorneys across Texas, each of our lawyers focuses on a handful of counties. This allows us to get personally involved with each client, and helps our lawyers develop strong relationships with local judges, prosecutors, and court staff — relationships that can make a real difference in your case.
Our attorney in Fredericksburg, Monica Khirallah, has over a decade of experience and nearly 100 jury trials under her belt. She has been recognized on the Super Lawyers Rising Stars list every year from 2020 to 2025.
But you aren't just hiring one lawyer — you're getting all of the resources of our premium criminal defense team, which includes former prosecutors, law enforcement officers, judges, magistrates, and even an ex-FBI agent. This allows us to view your case from all possible angles. Our founder, Ben Michael, is personally involved with every case.
Free Case Review
We offer a complimentary case review with one of our senior trial attorneys. During this consultation, we’ll review your arrest, answer your questions, and outline the most effective defense strategy.
We understand this is a stressful time — our experienced team provides immediate guidance and support so you can make informed decisions about your future.
