Texas Felony Criminal Defense Attorneys

Being arrested for a felony is a serious matter. Felonies represent the most severe types of crimes, often involving significant threats to human life or property. Prosecutors handle these cases with utmost seriousness, and felony convictions can result in imprisonment in a state prison for one year or more, substantial fines, or even the death penalty.

If you’ve been arrested for a felony, it’s crucial to have a seasoned criminal defense attorney whose primary objective is to achieve a dismissal or reduction of the charge. At Murphy & Baker Law Firm, we prioritize your defense, leveraging our team of former lead prosecutors, former assistant criminal district attorneys, and a former Texas judge who tirelessly fight for your case.

Facing a felony charge? Remember, being charged doesn’t mean you’re guilty. Reach out to Murphy & Baker Law Firm for skilled legal assistance in Tyler, Texas and the East Texas area.

Examples of Felony Offenses in Texas May include:

  • Abandoning/Endangering a Child
  • Aggravated Kidnapping

  • Possession or Manufacturing Drugs
