Criminal Defense Services in Mansfield
We defend clients in Mansfield, Arlington, Grand Prairie, and throughout Tarrant County against a wide range of criminal charges, including:
DWI & DUI Defense
Whether this is your first run-in with the law or you’ve been through it before, a DWI in Texas can seriously mess with your life — jail time, steep fines, sky-high insurance rates, and a suspended license are all on the table. At Michael & Associates, we don’t take that lightly.
We’ll dig into every part of your arrest — from the traffic stop to the field sobriety tests — and challenge anything that doesn’t hold up. Our goal? Keep you out of jail, save your license, and protect your record so you can move on with your life.
Drug Charges
Busted for possession, distribution, or something more serious? Don’t say a word until you talk to us. Texas drug laws are tough, but Michael & Associates is tougher.
We’ve helped clients walk away from charges by exposing illegal searches, flawed lab work, and shaky testimony. Whether it’s marijuana, prescription meds, or something more serious — we fight to get charges reduced or tossed out completely.
Felonies and Misdemeanors
Facing charges like assault, theft, burglary, or weapons violations? These aren’t just “minor issues” — they can follow you for life. At Michael & Associates, we approach every case with a trial-ready mindset, even if it doesn’t go to court. We build strong, evidence-based defenses that are designed to create leverage — so whether we're negotiating a dismissal or fighting in front of a jury, you're in the strongest position possible.
Homicide and Murder
If you're facing charges ranging from homicide to capital murder (where your life is literally on the line), you need a defense team that knows how to win high-pressure cases. We're ready.
Every Case. Every Detail. Every Client Matters.
We don't just take your case — we take ownership of your defense. Our team thoroughly investigates every angle, reviews every piece of evidence, and vigorously challenges weak or unlawful charges.
This means:
- Challenging unconstitutional stops or searches
- Cross-examining unreliable witnesses
- Disputing questionable lab or BAC results
- Filing pretrial motions to suppress evidence or get charges dismissed or reduced
