Criminal Defense

The City of San Antonio Texas reports approximately 100,000 crimes per year. The majority of these criminal cases will be resolved by the accused being arrested, placed in the Bexar County Jail, charged, having a bond set, having an attorney appointed and then pleading guilty or no contest. Being bonded out of jail is an advantage because the accused will be able to help the defense lawyer prepare a defense and more importantly, will not feel pressure to enter a plea to get out of jail. Just because someone is charged with a crime does not mean that they are guilty or will be found guilty.

An experienced Texas criminal defense lawyer can make the difference between being found guilty or not guilty; going to jail or going free.

We defend individuals accused of all Misdemeanors and Felonies, including:

After a thorough interview and a review of the States File and the allegations we can discuss what options are available. Ultimately it is the client's choice of whether to go to trial, file motions, have hearings, or negotiate a plea bargain. In most cases there will be ample time to make these determinations. Often it is in the client's best interest to be aggressive and proactive to pursue all defenses and mitigating facts. Often the defense will know some issues that the prosecutor has not uncovered and if they are defensive in nature a decision will have to be made whether to disclose the facts to the State. If it is likely to result in a dismissal we will often disclose, if not, we often will just wait for trial and use its surprise factor to our advantage.

A review of the allegations along with the facts as reported by the arresting officer coupled with the facts as relayed by the defendant will often give the criminal defense lawyer an idea as to whether to proceed to trial, a motion to suppress, or whether plea negotiations will be beneficial. In many cases a knowledgeable and skilled criminal defense lawyer can have a case dismissed by using his knowledge of the law along with some procedural maneuvers, such as a motion to suppress. Throughout your case the Texas Criminal Defense Lawyers at Rush & Gransee, L.C. will keep you informed of the progress being made, the results of any investigations and you will know what options are available at each step along the way.
