On Your Side, Regardless Of The Crime

The team at Fertitta & Reynal LLP is ready to sort through the complexities of any case involving the following:

Financial Crimes- This term encompasses a number of crimes, including mail and wire fraud, money laundering, bank fraud, securities fraud, commercial bribery, embezzlement, tax evasion, and bankruptcy fraud. Commonly referred to as “white collar” crimes, financial crimes of all types carry serious consequences. Criminal defense attorneys who handle these cases must exhibit a high level of specialized skill, the ability to identify and utilize the right defense techniques, and a strong grasp of court procedures.
Family Violence- If you’ve been accused of assaulting or threatening to injure your significant other, family member, or roommate, you could be charged with assault family violence. Such a charge carries serious potential legal consequences including potential jail time and the loss of custodianship over your children. There are several ways to fight against a family violence charge and avoid a conviction.
Drug Crimes- Even if there is clear proof that you were in possession of or selling controlled substances, you have options. A strong, experienced criminal defense attorney can uncover flaws in the prosecution’s case that can be used to obtain a dismissal or a significant reduction in the charges or punishment. Your alternatives as a person charged with a drug offense aren’t straightforward or easy to understand. Talk them through with us.
Intoxicated Manslaughter- Texas is the only state in which intoxicated manslaughter is a crime deemed separate from other forms of manslaughter. Prosecutor will charge intoxicates manslaughter whenever a person takes the life of another individual while in a state of intoxication. For example, if you were in Houston, TX and chose to drive after willingly having gotten drunk, and if you were to have caused a fatal accident as a result of that, then you would be facing a charge of intoxicated manslaughter. This is a crime that carries a prison sentence of up to 20 years.

Sex Crimes- Sex Crimes are perhaps the most stigmatized type of crime—not just in Houston, TX, but across the country. Convictions threaten to ruin your reputation, steal your freedom, and compromise your relationships with your loved ones. Unfortunately, it is not uncommon for false accusations of sex crimes to be made by resentful ex-lovers, enemies, or family members. Other times, family members of an alleged victim might incorrectly assume that a sex crime has taken place. Call the attorneys at Fretitta & Reynal to discuss the special rules applicable to sex crime.
Environmental Crimes- Among many things, environmental crimes can involve illegal dumping, air pouhon, illegal removal of wildlife from native habitat, illegal trading of hazardous or ozone-depleting materials, and unregulated fishing.

This can result in false accusations and wrongful convictions; don’t suffer the consequences of either—contact the criminal defense attorneys at Fertitta & Reynal LLC in Houston, TX today.

The criminal defense attorneys at Fertitta & Reynal are here to hear your side of the story and work towards getting you back to the life you’ve built in Houston, TX.
