Had the best experience with this firm, and felt like I was in good hands the entire time.

Special thanks to Justin Harris, who went above and beyond to make sure my case was handled with care and diligence.

I cannot recommend Justin Harris at My Dallas Criminal Lawyer highly enough. From our first consultation, Justin demonstrated a deep understanding of criminal law and a real commitment to protecting my rights. He was clear, honest, and always kept me informed throughout the process.

What stood out most was his strategic approach and calm demeanor. He explained all of my options clearly, never sugarcoated things, and ultimately helped me get a result that exceeded my expectations. It’s clear he has strong relationships in the Dallas legal community and knows how to navigate the system effectively.

If you’re facing criminal charges and need a lawyer who is sharp, responsive, and truly on your side, Justin Harris is the attorney to call. Worth every penny.

Justin helped me with a criminal matter and I have to say I had a wonderful experience with something that was very uncomfortable. Justin was responsive and clearly explained and helped me understand my options. In the end he was able to resolve the problem in my favor due to procedural issues he discovered and leveraged. I hope to never have to use his services again, but I know who I will call if I do need help!

After speaking with several criminal defense lawyers about my case I finally had spoken with Justin Wilson and was blown away. This gentleman is extremely knowledgeable and takes time to listen not missing anything. You can tell just from the sound of someone’s voice as to whether or not they are genuine and I could tell immediately after speaking with him that he truly cares about his clients. He took time going over my case with me and constantly kept me updated during the process. I would recommend him to anyone seeking out a lawyer for criminal defense and did I mention he is well connected in the court system. I hope that I will never need another lawyer, but if I do, Justin Wilson is my only choice. Thank you so much for the dismissal and the expunction of my case. You truly are amazing at what you do and I am forever grateful. Thanks.

I had a friend in a DWI situation that used Justin Barrett Wilson as their attorney. High quality work from a hard working, experienced attorney that you can trust. If anyone finds themselves in trouble in north Texas, I 10/10 recommend Justin’s services to everyone!

Justin is an outstanding and very sound criminal defense attorney with so much indepth knowledge of the law.  His depth of knowledge and experience in representing me in my case where my spouse tried to get me in trouble with the law was impeccable, very impressive, highly instrumental to receiving a dismissal order for my case and deeply appreciated.

He knows exactly what he is talking about when he advises and you can’t go wrong with him.  Thank you Justin.  Much grateful.

I would like to thank Justin for what he did for me in my DWI case.  He was able to get my case reduced to a non alcohol charge.  I am a truck driver so for me it was a life saver.  Justin is an up standing lawyer and a great guy. He is very knowledgeable about the law.  I highly recommend him to anyone that needs help.  I would also like to say his staff are always there to respond to any questions you have.  Thank you again Justin.

Justin Wilson helped make a stressful and scary situation seem manageable.  He is very knowledgeable and was so thorough with explaining what each step was and what to expect with each of our court dates.  he made it really easy on us.  He really was the best choice we could have made!  And he was able to get our case dismissed!!  It was a better outcome than we could have hoped for.  I would highly recommend him!

Adam

I have had the pleasure of being represented by Justin twice now.  During these situations, Justin made it clear to me he knows the law and the system he fights against for your best outcome.  His attention to detail, knowledge of law, and reputation precedes him.  Not once did I feel like I was ill informed about what to expect, what my options are, or how matters were going to go step by step.  I felt in complete control over my future because of his representation.  Outside of his representation in court he’s willing to educate me in Texas laws with smaller matters beyond my understanding.  Thank you Justin for everything you’ve done and continue doing for me!

Frequently Asked Questions

Here are the answers to some of our most frequently asked questions. Don't see your question here? Contact us today to speak with an experienced Dallas criminal defense attorney.

Not always. Some charges can be resolved without a court appearance, especially minor offenses and those for which we can negotiate a favorable outcome early on. However, for more serious cases, appearing in court may be necessary. Our team will guide you through each step and appear on your behalf whenever possible. Our goal is to reduce stress and disruption to your life while protecting your rights.

A first DWI offense in Texas can lead to a jail sentence, fine, license suspension, and up to two years of probation.  We work to help first-time offenders avoid jail time and keep their records clean by making them eligible for expunctions or nondisclosures.

Depending on your case, it may be possible to reduce a felony to a misdemeanor, enter a diversion program, or win a dismissal. Our team evaluates every detail to determine the best course of action—then we’ll fight to protect your future from a felony conviction.

In some cases, yes. Expungement allows you to clear your record and move forward. Not all offenses qualify, but our attorneys can review your record and determine your eligibility. If you’re not eligible for expungement, you may still qualify for record sealing (nondisclosure), which can limit who sees your record. We’ll walk you through your options and help you take the next step toward a clean slate.
