DWI

An arrest for driving while intoxicated (DWI) in Texas creates immediate negative consequences for the individual, and is in many ways more damaging than an arrest for other, more “serious” crimes.

Drug Crimes

Drug crimes are vigorously prosecuted in Texas, both at the state and federal levels, and punishment upon conviction can be quite severe. Even possession of a small amount of drugs can cause big trouble with serious, long-term consequences.

White Collar

The criminal defense attorneys at McLemore, Reddell & Story, P.L.L.C. represent individuals in Houston and surrounding areas, and statewide throughout Texas, who have been charged with white collar criminal offenses at the state or federal level.

Sex Offenses

Allegations of sexual assault or other sex offenses can be difficult to deal with and difficult to defend in Texas, but the criminal defense attorneys at McLemore, Reddell & Story, P.L.L.C. work hard to clear our clients’ names and make sure they are not unjustly convicted of a crime they didn’t commit.

Federal Criminal Law

At McLemore, Reddell & Story, P.L.L.C., our criminal defense attorneys are licensed to practice in the Texas Southern Federal District Courts from Houston to Galveston, Laredo and Brownsville, as well as the United States Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals.

Domestic Violence

Allegations of domestic abuse are often treated differently from other criminal offenses, with negative consequences flowing immediately from an arrest before any allegations have ever been proven.

Violent Crimes

The criminal defense attorneys at McLemore, Reddell & Story, P.L.L.C. represent people in Houston and throughout Texas statewide who have been arrested and charged with violent crime. The consequences for conviction of a violent crime can be particularly rough on the individual.

Arson

Under the Texas Penal Code, a person may be charged with arson if he or she allegedly started a fire (regardless of whether the fire continued after ignition), or caused an explosion, with the intent to destroy or damage certain property.

Identity Theft

If you face charges involving identify theft or another type of fraud, strong criminal defense representation is essential to fight a conviction and minimize the likelihood of a potentially severe sentence.
