Highly-Qualified Legal Representation in West Texas

Federal criminal matters are the most serious you can face. These legal challenges often begin with an investigation into your activities or your business’s activities. You may have been notified by a U.S. Attorney’s Office that you are subject to such a pending investigation. Other actions can including grand jury subpoenas or receiving a letter from a Department of Justice official. Or you may have been arrested by federal law enforcement such as the FBI, DEA, or other top-level agency.
