Articles & Videos from an Austin Criminal Defense Attorney

I’m David Reed, a misdemeanor & felony criminal defense lawyer with hard-fought knowledge and experience on both sides of the Texas justice system. Watch my videos below to learn more about Texas laws and your unalienable rights.

A misdemeanor conviction in Texas is not minor by definition. 🔒

Class A misdemeanors carry up to a year in county jail and fines up to four thousand dollars. 

The word misdemeanor causes a lot of people to underestimate what they are actually facing, and that underestimation costs them.

A past charge sitting on your record is not a life sentence. 🔓

Expungement wipes it clean. Not reduced, not buried. Gone. Jobs, housing, and licensing boards never have to see it again.

If you qualify, there is no reason to wait. 

Call or text me at 512-853-0100.

ACL is here, Austin! 🎶

Enjoy the music this weekend and next, but please plan your ride BEFORE you leave the house. APD and state troopers are out heavy all over town. 

Don’t risk your safety, your freedom, or your future on a bad decision. Grab a ride share of a pedicab.

Fall is here. New routines, fresh starts. 🍂

An assault charge doesn't have to be the story you carry forward. 

I defend people who deserve better than a rushed outcome.

Being charged with assault in Texas and actually being guilty are two very different things. ⚖️

A charge reflects an accusation. Court is where the truth gets to show up.

A misdemeanor charge still goes on your criminal record. ⚖️ 

It can affect jobs, housing, and professional licenses just like a felony can.

The label sounds minor. The consequences often aren't.
