Conviction for domestic assault in Texas can have extremely serious consequences. There is a lot to lose. Your rights to child custody and visitation can be taken away. Your may lose your right to own a gun. Your career and reputation may be in jeopardy.
The highly experienced criminal defense attorneys at The Carlson Law Firm defend clients throughout central Texas who have been accused of domestic assault, spousal battery, child abuse, assault on an elderly family member, sexual assault or another domestic violence-related crime.
In the military, a domestic violence conviction will almost certainly result in separation. If you are convicted, your career in the military is over. While it is possible to maintain the separation as non-dishonorable — allowing you to keep your pension and benefits — the best result would be to avoid conviction.
The Carlson Law Firm stands ready to protect your rights and defend your career of service. Our team of lawyers includes former JAG officers who can capably guide and represent you in both the civilian and military aspects of a domestic violence case.
We have obtained deferred adjudication and pretrial diversion for clients in order to avoid a conviction that would trigger automatic separation from the military.
Don't let another day pass without experienced, dedicated defense representation. Contact our criminal defense attorneys for a free consultation with a Texas assault attorney.

I dealt with Steve Walden, Marissa, and Rebekah in family law. I am a divorced single father in the military who took custody of my son due to my ex-wife's numerous chemical addictions. Despite these circumstances the court and child support system were biased against me because of my gender. All I wanted was to take care of my son and give him the chances I never had. Carlson law firm helped me achieve that. They were flexible with payments, were in constant communication with me and the court, and argued on my behalf so impressively that the court found in my behavior without hesitation. If you are alone and feel like no one has your back, they will help you. I owe them so much.

I was very weary of seeking an attorney after my accident, especially since it had been over a year. A friend told me she had used Carlson and so I made an appointment. I didn't have to pay anything and I got all the advice I needed to figure out the next steps. I highly recommend this law firm!

I've been dealing with 3 people at the Carlson Law Firm since May. Isabelle (Legal Assist) has gone over and above in her kindness, patience, and being very understanding. She has kept me abreast of any matters pertaining to our legal issue and has constantly displayed professionalism. I recently started speaking with Mandy and she as well has gone above to assist me with any questions or concerns that I may have. As for Vicky the attorney...she is an amazing attorney. When I've needed to speak directly with her she has contacted me back. The choice my husband and I made to seek legal help from her was the best decision that we could have made. I will definately recommend their law firm to anyone that would need the best legal help. Thanks so much Vicky, Isabelle and Mandy for EVERYTHING.

Kathryn Knotts has been a big asset to us during some hard time when my wife was involved in a car accident. We didn't know what to do. She was always very polite, professional and patient with us. Would gladly go back to her if we had legal issues again. Thanks for the help.
~Mike
Kathryn Knotts is a competent and knowledgeable attorney. I used her services recently on two business related matters. In each case, she advised and guided me so I knew the documents related to the matters were legally correct. Kathryn is a professional and conscientious attorney who is attentive to her clients' needs and I am pleased to recommend her to anyone needing legal assistance.

My attorney, Rob Ranco and his assistant, Carlos, did a great job with my car accident case. Everyone at the firm made me feel good about my choice to hire them. I highly recommend them.
~TexMan
I really appreciate the commitment and dedication the attorney's as well as the legal assistants put into our case. Amy was great at answering our questions and providing information as needed. Wonderful experience!

I was in a wreck that involved some pretty minor property damage. I was surprised to realize a couple days later that I was suffering from a whiplash injury. This firm helped me find the medical treatment I needed and treated me like I mattered, even though my claim was not very big. When my case was all said and done, I was feeling better, my medical bills were paid, and I even got a little money in my pocket to cover the inconvenience of being in a wreck. Thank you Drew and Edith for taking care of me!
~Daran
I couldn't be happier with this law firm. I had a problem with a neighbor that I tried to handle on my own for almost two years. I hired Drew Gibbs to take care of it for me and he got it done in just a few short weeks. I was amazed! Recently, I got hit by a lady who ran a red light and Drew has been helping me with that too. I would recommend this firm to anyone!
~David
Carlson Law Firm did an outstanding job in handling my case. I was so overwhelmed with bill collectors calling and people asking so many questions that I wasn't sure how to answer. Carlson Law Firm came right in and helped make things much easier on me and helped me to understand how the entire process works. They touched base with me frequently to let me know how things were going and even made a trip all the way out to my house because I had no vehicle to make it into the office to meet with them. I would recommend them to everyone I talk with.
