At Michael & Associates, we understand that criminal charges can be life-changing. Our attorneys treat every case as if it will go to trial, reviewing every piece of evidence, challenging procedural errors, and fighting aggressively to protect your freedom.
Free Case Review
We offer a complimentary case review with one of our senior attorneys to discuss your arrest, address your questions, and determine the most effective strategy for your defense.
We're available 24/7 to walk you through your options. We know this is a stressful time, and that waiting is hard.
Experienced Legal Team on Your Side
Although we have a large pool of attorneys across Texas, each of our attorneys is hyper-focused on a handful of jurisdictions. This helps them become familiar with the key players and likely case outcomes.
Brett Landriault serves our clients in Galveston County, where he has deep ties to the community. His experience as a former Galveston County prosecutor helps him view your case from all possible angles. He's tried cases ranging from DWI to capital murder.
However, when you hire Michael & Associates, you gain more than just a local attorney. Our team includes seasoned trial lawyers, a former prosecutor familiar with the state’s playbook, certified DWI scientists, and staff who have served as judges, deputy sheriffs, and even FBI agents. This collective expertise gives you a serious advantage in challenging evidence, investigating your case, and anticipating the prosecution’s strategy.
Tailored Defense Strategies
Every criminal case is unique and requires a different approach. We carefully review all evidence, look for procedural errors, and develop a defense strategy specifically for your situation. We even have a DWI scientist who specializes in the Houston-Galveston area. Whether you’re facing a misdemeanor, felony, DWI, drug offense, or high-stakes charges such as homicide or sex crimes, we fight for you. We want your side of the story to be heard.
Immediate Guidance & Full Support
From your first call, we act quickly. You’ll receive a free consultation with a senior trial attorney who reviews your case, explains your legal options, and outlines your defense plan. Our Galveston team can assist with bond or jail release immediately, including nights and weekends, and we keep you informed throughout the process.
Proven Results
Criminal convictions carry serious, life-altering consequences, from jail time and fines to long-term impacts on employment, family, and reputation. While a dismissal is always our top priority, we don't shy away from the courtroom -- we'll always go to trial when necessary to get you the best possible outcome (at no additional cost). One price covers your case from start to finish.
