Criminal Defense Overview

Murder, Manslaughter and Violent Crimes
 

Texas Criminal Lawyers

Houston defense lawyer Dick DeGuerin has handled numerous murder cases and obtained acquittals that astonished prosecutors and the public. Take the case of Robert Durst. He was arrested and charged with murder in Galveston, Texas, shortly after his neighbor's body parts were found floating in Galveston Bay. Durst raised self-defense at trial and the jury acquitted him. It is this degree of effectiveness, in the face of overwhelming odds, that led the National Law Journal to call Dick DeGuerin "one of the nation's top 10 litigators."

At DeGuerin & Dickson we defend people facing the fight of their lives against criminal charges of murder, attempted murder, capital murder, manslaughter, murder for hire, vehicular homicide, and related charges.

Murder cases typically attract media attention. We have handled many high-profile violent crime cases. We understand the challenges of working with print and broadcast media while ensuring our client receives a fair trial.
