The Law Office of Paul J. Smith provides aggressive and strategic criminal defense in high-stakes criminal cases in Corpus Christi. If you need representation from a criminal defense lawyer who will fight for you at trial, put me on your side now so I can start protecting your rights and freedom. I can also provide consultation on last minute jury trials.
High-Powered Criminal Defense For High-Stakes Cases
I am a trial lawyer, not a plea negotiator. People hire Paul J. Smith when they need to fight serious felony charges because the alternative is hard time in prison. I am often brought in at the last minute to take cases to trial, with impressive results.
In my more than 35 years of experience, I have defended people accused of murder, robbery, aggravated domestic violence, drug trafficking, rape, sex trafficking and dozens of other serious felonies. My record of success includes acquittals, mistrials (hung juries), dismissals, reduced charges and other favorable outcomes. I am here to give you a fighting chance.
A Board-Certified Criminal Defense Lawyer Fighting For You
I have dedicated my career to defending people facing criminal charges. I am Board-Certified in Criminal Law by the Texas Board of Legal Specialization, which means that I met rigorous standards for legal knowledge and effective courtroom advocacy. My trial skills are bolstered by training in the Gerry Spence Method of persuasive storytelling, and at the Hudson Valley Psychodrama Institute. I am also a graduate of the prestigious Trial Lawyers College.
I am licensed to practice in federal and state courts in Texas, and I have taken hundreds of cases to trial in Bexar County and other jurisdictions. One of the keys to my trial success is my skill in jury selection. It matters who is (or is not) in that jury box deciding your fate.
I Know What Constitutes A True Defense
In addition to defending against high-stakes criminal charges, I represent clients in claims of legal malpractice. This often arises after a criminal case was mishandled by another defense attorney. I also provide trial consulting to other defense lawyers who need guidance on trial strategy and jury selection.
I excel in last-minute criminal trial representation. If you need a criminal defense trial lawyer to jump into your case right away and fight for your rights and freedom at trial, don’t wait. Call me today at 726-268-9322 or send me an email.
