Dallas Criminal Law Attorneys

The lawyers at Clancy & Clancy represent clients throughout Texas accused of any type of misdemeanor or felony in either state or federal court, including:

Assault. Many assaults occur between people who know each other when emotions get out of hand. The severity of the sentence for assault depends on whether you are charged with a felony or a misdemeanor. We also represent clients charged with child abuse and sexual assault.

Theft. Theft charges include shoplifting, credit card abuse, robbery, forgery and burglary of a home, building or vehicle. Most prosecutions for theft depend on eyewitness testimony, fingerprints and security-camera footage. However, despite what police tell you at the time of your arrest, the evidence involved can be questionable at best. Eyewitnesses often cannot be sure what they see at a distance or at night, video footage can be grainy or indistinct, and racial profiling can play a role in including or excluding suspects. We critically examine both the evidence against you and the conduct of the police.

DWI and DUI. We represent clients accused of driving while intoxicated or driving under the influence, along with other alcohol-related charges, including administrative license revocation hearings and occupational driver’s licenses. These charges require an attorney who is familiar with the details required to handle these cases. You want an attorney who is up to date on the latest case law and police procedures for field sobriety tests, breath tests and blood tests.

Drugs. We represent clients on both simple and complex drug cases. Depending on the type and quantity of drugs, your case will be filed in either state or federal court. Drug charges include manufacturing, possession and delivery. The state must prove care, custody and control of the illegal substance and must provide a lab result in order to prove the quantity of the substance. There may be several defenses to each of these issues.

Federal and White-Collar Crimes. We have defended clients charged with Internet crimes, wire fraud, mail fraud, tax fraud, health care fraud (including Medicare and Medicaid fraud), securities fraud (including stock fraud and insider trading), mortgage fraud, real estate fraud, business theft and fraud, computer-based fraud, business-opportunity fraud (including telemarketing fraud), accounting fraud and foreign corrupt practices act.

Probation Revocations. Individuals are granted probation as an alternative to jail or prison. We represent clients who have been granted probation by the court and have been accused of violating the conditions and requirements of that probation. When a person violates the conditions and/or requirements of probation, he or she may face the possibility of jail time. It is best to contact an attorney immediately to negotiate with the probation officer, the district attorney’s office and the judge. Jail time is always the last resort.

Expunctions and Public Nondisclosures. We may be able to help you remove a charge from your criminal record. We will let you know if your criminal history qualifies for one of these invaluable rights to seal your criminal history.

Appeals. Not all lawyers can handle appeals well. We are as skilled in appellate work as we are in the courtroom. We have won new trials for people convicted of serious crimes who turned to our office for help. Our lawyers file both direct appeals and petitions for post-conviction relief. Whether winning the right to a new trial or modifying an existing sentence, the appellate attorneys can help you or a loved one find justice.

Juvenile Cases. We represent juveniles in delinquency, detention hearings, determinate sentencing, certification, hearings and sealing of juvenile records. Most criminal defense attorneys rarely practice in juvenile court. They often lack the experience and knowledge to represent children effectively. Tim Clancy is experienced in juvenile law as both a former felony prosecutor and a defense attorney. He has the advantage of seeing cases from both sides. Many of the rules and procedures in juvenile court are different from adult court, so it is essential to have an attorney who is familiar with the laws and statutes of the juvenile system.
