How does the hearing work or does anyone know of a very good attorney in Denton? I have been charged with Family Vilolence. My son as a witness has told the DA that I was retreating and my wife attacked me.
Denton tends to be a pitbull on this.

If I take the deal how long do I have t wait to reapply?

Call Tim Powers in Denton. Criminal Law, experienced in your needs. His number is 972-724-4820 and email is info@TimPowers.com

As I recall, if you have a family violence conviction (even a misdemeanor), you've given up your right to own firearms permanently. No CHL, ever. Don't take the deal if it has anything about family or spousal violence. Don't get a good lawyer, get the best lawyer you can find!

I belive what barres is implying is don't even be tempted to plea bargain to what you may be told is a "minor or harmless" misdemeanor. If you do you will live to regret it. IANAL, etc.

Update,

I want to that the person for recommending Beverly she recommended Wyatt Board Certified Criminal Law out of Dallas. The DA made me several plea deals that I would not accept, I am innocent of said charges and I refuse to plea to something that I did not do. I received the call that the DA has dropped all charges. I am very happy and I will say Wyatt is one hell of an attorney.If any of you have a criminal case state or federal I would recommend him he is the 1911 of attorney's The guy I hired prior to him wanted me to plea to a class B with all the fixens

Thanks

I want my CHL back..............................

Wow, congratulations. Good luck with the DPS.

Excellent news. Congratulations.

Good goin, so far!! hang in there...

Congrats. Great news. What is the attorney's name you worked with. I assume their last name is Wyatt? I'd like to add their card to my wallet!

Good luck with DPS. I hope you're working on a better domestic arrangement too.

I spoke to the women that handles the suspension and revocation letters and she gave e the number for the attorney that is handling my suspension in Austin. I was advised that I would have no issue having the license suspension lifted.

That is indeed good news! It seems to be going in the right direction. Good luck to you, hope it doesn't take long, and please keep us posted.

Great news, jroberts. I'm glad things worked out for you.

Case was dismissed Aug 24. I received the letter and my CHL in the mail Oct 17

Now I did email suspensions dept. a PDF of the case and they forwarder it to the attorney assigned the case for the DPS. Yes your case is assigned to a DPS case officer-attorney and then he clears your license to be reinstated. Actually the people I spoke to are very professional.
