ToggleOther Criminal Cases We Handle
Criminal Mischief: Criminal mischief generally refers to the intentional destruction or tampering with the property of another. It is typically charged as a misdemeanor, but could be a state jail felony or first-, second-, or third-degree felony charge when the property damaged is highly valuable.
Domestic Violence: Domestic violence is taken seriously in Texas. If you have domestic violence charges alleged against you, you could have a restraining order issued against you, as well as be at risk of a fine, prison time, and other consequences. Domestic violence criminal charges often go hand-in-hand with civil consequences, too.
Federal Crimes: There are a wide range of federal crimes that fall into this category. If you are facing charges for a federal crime, working with an attorney who is experienced in this area is surely in your best interests.
Hate Crimes: Hate crimes can vary but are simply defined as crimes committed that are motivated by race, religion, sexual orientation, or other grounds. Our firm can help protect your rights.
Human Trafficking: Not to be confused with smuggling, human trafficking is described by the Office of the Attorney General of Texas as “modern-day slavery” – the exploitation of men, women, and children…for profit or gain. This type of crime is very serious in our state and will result in severe penalties if a defendant is convicted.
Juvenile Offenses: Being part of the system as a juvenile–someone who is under the age of 18 years–can be a terrifying experience both for the youth and their parents. Juvenile crimes can have significant consequences on a young person’s life, including impairing their ability to get into college, secure certain jobs, and even finish their high school education. We provide aggressive, thoughtful, and compassionate representation for those who are facing juvenile offenses.
Leaving the Scene of an Accident: Texas drivers are required to stop and exchange information when they are involved in a car accident. If you leave the scene of the accident before doing this, you’ve broken the law.
Probation Violation: Probation is a privilege that comes with certain requirements and, if those requirements and stipulations are breached, probation can be revoked. If you are accused of violating your probation, our law firm can defend you and help you to navigate your options.
Smuggling: Smuggling, under Texas penal code, refers to the smuggling of persons and is a major offense in our state. Smuggling is always charged as a felony offense – the degree of felony depends on the details of the crime and the extent of harm suffered by the victim.
Subornation of Perjury:Perjury refers to making false statements under oath and can result in serious criminal charges. Call a lawyer if you’ve been charged with subornation of perjury.

Testimonials
Tad and Amber are literally top of the game. When I need results, they are the only people I trust. Quality of service, knowledge and professionalism throughout. Don't gamble with a lawyer on any legal issue, you only want to bet on the best!
Thank you Tad Nelson for standing up for me and what is right, Tad Nelson is obviously well known and respected through out the court system as he spoke with authority and precisely to the assistant DA resulting in the dismissal of my case before the case went to trial. Thank you again. if you want it done call Tad Nelson
I hired them a while back for a DWI out in Harris County, they're good and if you need help with any kind of legal matter, give em a call. For a lawyer, Tad has a great personality so working with him should be easier than working with other lawyers.
He is the one lawyer that I can call and put my trust into. We’ve used him a couple of times, once for a family matter and another time for a troubled relative. He’ll help, tell you the truth with no sugar-coating, and will work for his salt. He’s a good guy and when you go to their office, they make you feel at home, like you’re part of the team. Good lawyers and great folks.
I've had the pleasure of working with Tad personally as a technology consultant for him in the past. We've eaten lunch and dinner together. I know that Tad is very dedicated to his clients and cares for them off the clock. He's definitely the lawyer you want on your side.
