San Antonio Criminal Defense Lawyer

Aggressive Defense Against Criminal Charges

Being charged with a crime is one of the most upsetting and confusing situations you can face, particularly for those who have never come into contact with the criminal justice system before. It is important that you know what your rights are, what the potential outcome of your case is with regard to penalties and other ramifications, and that you take advantage of your right to a defense attorney. The Law Office of John J. Fox always takes a personal approach with clients, and will take the time to explain thoroughly how the case will move through the system, and how our office will take action to defend you in court.

We believe that working together as a team will bring us the best results possible, and we care about your future and your freedom. We have developed a team that assists on many cases, including private investigators, mitigation specialists, psychologists, therapists, medical doctors, nurses and former police investigators who all consult with our office when necessary to provide evidence and testimony to support our defense cases.

When accused of a serious felony offense, it is vital that you retain our services as early as possible after your arrest. Our early involvement in your case can significantly affect the outcome; we may have an opportunity to get the charges dismissed or reduced when we get involved prior to formal charges. We advise that you never appear at any court hearing without a defense lawyer from our firm; a bail hearing, arraignment or other court appearance can have a negative outcome if you do not have us there managing the situation.

Were you arrested in San Antonio, TX?

Defending a serious criminal charge is an art; knowledge of criminal law and the court process is crucial, but it is vital that your defense lawyer has trial law experience, and has the ability to present your defense case to the jury in a compelling and convincing manner. This ability is critical, and it is well established that courtroom skill will have much to do with the outcome of any criminal case. We are proud of our extensive record in court, and are committed to helping our clients fight for their freedom and future from the first moment of any criminal charge.

We represent clients charged with all types of criminal offenses, including cases of multiple DWI or felony DWI, drug crimes of all types including possession, distribution, and manufacturing, internet crimes such as child pornography, and defending sex crimes including molestation, indecency with a child, sex with a minor, child abuse and injury to a child. We provide skilled legal counsel to those charged with theft crimes including burglary or robbery. We have extensive experience in defending all types of serious traffic offenses including felony charges of hit & run.

Individuals charged with violent crimes like assault, murder or manslaughter charges must act quickly and contact our aggressive defense team, ensuring you have legal counsel prior to answering any questions from law enforcement or investigators. Facing any charge of assault & battery is a serious matter that will require immediate action be taken on your behalf.

We also defend young people charged with juvenile crimes, and defend individuals accused of white collar crimes of all types, and clients who have legal problems regarding warrants. Our client focused firm provides personal legal service, and we seek to find the best possible defense for all types of serious criminal charges. We advise you to contact us immediately if you have been arrested, or if you are under investigation in a serious criminal case. Do not agree to any interviews until you have legal representation from our office to protect you in the process.

Domestic Violence
Although we are able to handle virtually every type of claim, one of the main focuses of our firm lies in handling domestic violence charges. These cases are highly emotional and will have a profound impact, not only on you personally, but on your entire family as well. You could find that you are unable to have the close relationship with your children, could struggle to find employment and could be forced to confront the criminal charge in almost every area of your life imaginable. For this reason, if you have been accused, it is highly encouraged that you do not hesitate to consult with our legal team as soon as possible.
