Criminal Law
Jeff McKnight is an aggressive, trial experienced former prosecutor who is able to focus on the specific facts and circumstance of each client's charge. A person accused of a crime should seek a lawyer with substantial trial experience and one who can "see it through the eyes of a prosecutor."
The State of Texas is required to prove each and every element of a crime beyond a reasonable doubt. Just because someone was at the wrong place at the wrong time does not mean that person is guilty of a crime. It is important to assess what crime the State of Texas has charged an individual with, and more importantly, what they can prove beyond a reasonable doubt.
Charges of criminal conduct pose the most serious of all legal consequences with the possibility of taking a persons freedom and placing them in jail. These serious implications need to be taken seriously and dealt with in an aggressive and prompt manner.
Jeff would be happy to discuss the complex and extensive issues and consequences that are present in criminal prosecutions. Please contact us and let us know how we can help you.
