Top-Rated Trial Lawyers Serving Denton County & Collin County

Fighting to Secure Favorable Outcomes for Clients Facing Serious Charges

Being charged with a crime is a serious matter — regardless of where you're arrested. However, criminal allegations feel particularly stressful in Texas — a state that prides itself as “tough on crime.” Unfortunately, this approach occasionally leads to unfair outcomes. That's why anyone accused of a crime locally should work with Prosper and McKinney, TX, trial lawyers.

At the Edgett Law Firm, our criminal defense team understands the stress that accompanies being charged with a crime. We know that it seems like the deck is stacked against you — particularly when police and prosecutors seem certain of a conviction. However, it's imperative for you to remember that you have rights that cannot be violated during this process.

Why a Trial Lawyer

Why Do You Need a Trial Lawyer on Your Side?

There's no shortage of criminal defense lawyers in Texas. However, not all law firms are created equally. This is why — when you're making a decision on legal representation — you should seek out trial lawyers located in McKinney and Prosper, TX. There are far too many law firms that are willing to accept the first plea deal that the prosecution offers. In some instances, this may not be in your best interest.

The truth is that most criminal cases are resolved via plea negotiations. This means there's a chance that a plea deal may be right for you. However, you should always work with an attorney who is willing to go to court if it's what's best in your case. Prosecutors want you to accept a quick plea deal, but an experienced attorney can negotiate better terms. Better yet, they may be able to secure a not-guilty verdict or have charges dropped.

Every case is different, so you deserve legal representation that takes an individualized approach to your case. That's exactly what you'll get when working with a trial lawyer from the Edgett Law Firm.

Helping Texans

Helping Texans with Offices in Prosper & McKinney, Texas

Everyone has inalienable rights under the Constitution. Unfortunately, it may not feel this way when you're charged with a crime in Texas. It's not uncommon for prosecutors to overcharge cases as a bargaining chip in plea negotiations. You may feel as if accepting a plea deal is your only option — or that a conviction is unavoidable. However, you may be surprised at what you learn once you secure legal representation.

At the Edgett Law Firm, our legal team knows the tricks used by police and prosecutors. Our Denton County & Collin County trial lawyers understand that plea deals are appropriate in some cases. However, far too many individuals face wrongful convictions due to fear of increased penalties or the idea that they can't afford legal counsel. We're here to help Texans overcome these challenges.
