Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

What should I do if I am arrested in Hutto? Do not speak to the police. Politely state that you are going to remain silent and that you want a lawyer. Anything you say can and will be used against you. Call an experienced criminal defense attorney immediately.

Why does it matter that my case is in Williamson County? Williamson County has a well-known reputation for being one of the toughest counties on crime in Texas. You need a defense attorney who is not intimidated by "Wilco" prosecutors and who has experience navigating their specific system.

Can my criminal charge be dismissed? Yes. An arrest is not a conviction. Charges can be dismissed due to insufficient evidence, an illegal police stop, a violation of your constitutional rights, or through skilled negotiation. This is our primary goal in every case.

Will a criminal charge automatically result in a conviction? No. You are presumed innocent until proven guilty. You have the right to contest the charges, challenge the evidence, and force the State to prove its case beyond a reasonable doubt.
