How Do We Defend Clients Against Criminal Charges?

If you are innocent of the charge against you, a San Marcos criminal defense attorney at Seymour & Vaughn will fight aggressively for your long-term best interests. When we develop a defense strategy, we will first seek to have the charge against you dropped or dismissed.

If that’s not possible, we may take your case to trial and ask the jury to return a not guilty verdict. But in some cases, the state’s evidence will be overwhelming, and a criminal conviction is certain. In these cases, we seek leniency from the court and reduced or alternative sentencing.

We will review the state’s case against you, find a weakness or mistake, and use that weakness or error on your behalf. We will fight aggressively and effectively to protect your rights and ensure that the court treats you fairly and justly at every stage of the criminal justice process.
