Facing Texas State Criminal Charges With Confidence
In Texas, state crimes are offenses that violate the laws specific to our state. While they might not carry the same weight as federal offenses, Texas is known for its tough stance on crime. We are criminal defense attorneys who understand the full spectrum of Texas law and are prepared to defend you with the full force of our combined knowledge and local insight.
We can defend you against a host of state charges, such as:
- Theft
- Arson
- Kidnapping within state lines
- False imprisonment
- Sex crimes
- Driving under the influence (DUI)/driving while intoxicated (DWI)
- Resisting with violence
The consequences of a state crime conviction can be severe, including jail time, fines, mandatory community service and probation. It is crucial to remember that some state crimes can escalate to federal offenses if they cross state lines, such as kidnapping or drug trafficking.
