Theft Defense Lawyer in Sugar Land and Fort Bend County, Texas

theft

Charges of theft are very serious, as they are all classified as crimes of moral turpitude. Most job applications ask you whether or not you have ever been charged or convicted of a crime involving moral turpitude, meaning an unfavorable judgment on one of these cases could leave you unemployed - or unable to achieve your potential and drastically alter your future. If you’ve been arrested and charged with theft or a related crime in the Fort Bend County or Harris County area, you need to understand what the consequences may be.

Got the job done quickly

I hired Jason for an Order of Nondisclosure for a case that was 17 years old. I called several attorneys for my case but Jason seemed to be the only one that was interested in helping me complete my request. Jason was very informative and responded to all of my emails. My request was completed and approve within a month of hiring Jason. I really appreciate Jason acting very quickly to resolve my issue.

Adoption

We hired Jason for my husband to adopt my children. He was able to take our payments through our credit card and allowed us to make payments. Also we loved that he charged a flat rate rather than hourly. It took only 8 months to finalize the adoption and it went very smoothly. I highly recommend using Jason.

Jason was professional, personable, knowledgeable and prepared for my court proceeding. It was refreshing to have an attorney that cares, provides answers within a reasonable amount of time and gets results.

Consummate Professional

Jason Lawrence is the consummate professional. From start to finish, he delivered on everything that was promised, and did so in a timely and trustworthy manner. He communicated with me effectively throughout the process and saw my case to a positive conclusion. I would certainly use him again and would recommend him to anyone who is looking for a lawyer in the Houston area.

Got my case completely dismissed

I was charged with simple assault in Brazoria County over a bogus charge my ex girlfriend put on me. I only had to go to court twice and Jason got the charges completely dropped after talking to the prosecutor. Would recommend him to everyone!
