Frequently Asked Questions — Dallas Criminal Defense

How do I select a criminal defense attorney in Dallas?

When selecting a criminal defense attorney in Dallas, you always want an attorney who has been a former prosecutor. They know the Dallas County courts inside and out. Focus on someone with experience in cases like yours, familiarity with the local courts, communication style, and whether the attorney gives clear, practical answers. You should come away from a consultation feeling informed, respected, and confident that the firm understands what is at stake.

How do I get a criminal defense attorney in Dallas?

If you need a criminal defense attorney in Dallas, the quicker you hire the better. It can help in getting your case dismissed or keeping it from being filed. Your first step is to schedule a consultation as soon as possible after an arrest, investigation, or accusation. Always go into the attorney office for an in person interview and never do it over the phone. Early legal guidance can help you avoid mistakes and make better decisions from the beginning of the case.

First time hiring a lawyer and was not disappointed one bit. They have a whole team that works with you to get this off of your records they are honest and forward with the outcomes that might be but don’t give empty promises. My case got dismissed in less than 2 weeks of hiring them. No court dates no court fines nothing. Recommend to everyone.read more

I can’t express enough how grateful I am to the Goldsby Law Firm for saving my life. My attorney, Megan, went above and beyond to ensure my future wasn't defined by a felony charge. Thanks to her hard work and expertise, my felony charge was completely rejected before the case was even filed. I truly didn’t think such an outcome was possible, but Megan made it happen.People in my situation often face incarceration or are left with a felony record for life, but thanks to Megan, I’m now free to continue building my life without that looming over me. Her attention to detail, professionalism, and dedication were exactly what I needed, and I couldn’t have asked for a better representative.I also want to thank Gloria and everyone else at the office who took the time to answer my calls and keep me informed throughout this entire process. This firm has made a monumental impact on my life, and I will forever be grateful.Thank you, Megan, and thank you, Goldsby Law Firm, for truly changing my life.read more

Since the day I was charged, I spent countless hours researching numerous law firms in Dallas-Fort Worth, and to say the least, I was blessed with the best law firm I could’ve possibly asked for.To briefly state my case, I was being charged with possession of a controlled substance. This was easily a case that could have gone sideways due to Texas’ strict laws on controlled substances like marijuana. When I sat down and spoke to Mike, he gave me a lot of hope and actually took the time to listen to my concerns and gave me positive and valuable opinions. I felt like he truly wanted this case to get dismissed due to the circumstances.I had the privilege to work with Megan for the few months that I was facing these charges. She answered all my questions and made sure that I was going to be in good hands from the beginning. From what i thought was something that was going to ruin my life, she stepped in and got my case dismissed. She is incredible and deserves so much recognition and praise.I rated 5 stars because I would definitely recommend this law firm to anyone who feels like they won’t win with any other attorney(s). Thank you all!read more

Wisely chose this Law Firm and was really lucky that I did. They are mastery in what they do and the results were extraordinary. I made some mistakes being charged with felony possession of marijuana and misdemeanor unlawful carry. They dismissed both my cases and were really affordable and in the end everything has been resolved. I am now able to go further in my career and be successful thanks to the Gooslby Law Firm. I wholeheartedly recommend this Law Firm to anyone looking for an affordable and yet powerful, and knowledgeable team to handle your cases. They will get you the best results little to no effort on your end. A family member of mines was also charged who I recommended this Law firm to and the case was immediately thrown out soon after. What an amazing Law firm and people here at the Goolsby Law Firm. Do not doubt them and have them change your life.read more

The Goolsby Law Firm was amazing and easy to work with. I was facing a felony charge and they help me understand what was going on and walked me through all of my options. Instead of being in jail for up to 10 years for my dumb mistake, I am now on a probation that I can continue to live my life on and eventually get dismissed. I am thankful to the Goolsby Law Firm for helping me and I would absolutely recommend them to anyone that wants representation that actually cares!read more

Definitely worth the cost!read more
