Criminal Defense

Facing criminal charges in Bexar County or South Texas is a frightening and life-altering experience. The moment you are arrested or learn that you are the target of a criminal investigation, the weight of the government presses down with full force. Police officers, detectives, prosecutors, and investigators often begin building their case before you even realize you are in their sights. At Mansour Law, attorney David Mansour understands the fear and uncertainty that come with this moment. His role is to stand between you and the power of the State of Texas, ensuring your rights are protected and that every available defense is pursued.

Many people underestimate the seriousness of charges until it is too late. A misdemeanor charge for disorderly conduct may not sound severe, but it can still carry jail time, probation, and a damaging mark on your record. Felonies in Bexar County can carry far greater consequences, including mandatory prison sentences, substantial fines, and long-term restrictions on your freedom. Having an experienced attorney at your side from the beginning can be the difference between moving forward with your life or being burdened with a criminal conviction.

The Dave Defends Approach to Criminal Defense

At Mansour Law, we approach each case with the belief that no two clients are alike. Every arrest involves unique facts, different personalities, and specific circumstances that must be analyzed in detail. Rather than treating cases as files to be processed, we devote the time to learn the story behind the charges. Understanding how an arrest unfolded, why police pulled over a driver, or what led to a heated argument can provide the critical insight needed to mount a strong defense.

The defense process begins with a thorough review of the evidence. Police reports, body camera footage, 911 calls, and witness statements must all be scrutinized. We challenge unlawful searches and seizures, question the credibility of witnesses, and look for inconsistencies in the prosecution’s narrative. From there, we develop a strategy that aligns with your goals. For some clients, dismissal of charges is possible through pre-trial motions. For others, a negotiated resolution may be in their best interest. And for many, the only path forward is to take the case to trial. Whatever the situation demands, we stand ready to fight for you in Bexar County courtrooms.

Protecting Your Rights from the Beginning

From the moment of arrest, your constitutional rights must be safeguarded. Police are required to follow strict procedures when conducting searches, interrogations, and arrests. Yet, violations occur frequently. Unlawful searches, coerced confessions, and improper identifications are common issues that may occur. When your rights are violated, we take aggressive action to have evidence excluded or charges dismissed. Protecting your rights means more than just reacting to the prosecution’s moves; it requires proactive, strategic defense from the outset.

The Consequences of a Conviction

Many people focus only on the immediate penalties of a criminal charge, such as jail or fines. In Texas, the consequences extend much further. A criminal record can impact your ability to find employment, rent an apartment, apply for professional licenses, or pursue higher education. In cases involving domestic violence or certain felonies, firearm ownership rights may be permanently lost. Immigration consequences are also significant, with non-citizens facing possible deportation. At Mansour Law, we fight to minimize not only the immediate penalties but also the long-term damage that comes with a conviction.

DUI

If you’ve been arrested for driving under the influence, you need a DUI lawyer who understands how to navigate both the criminal court system and the administrative proceedings with the Texas Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles. DUI cases involve complex legal and scientific evidence, from roadside tasks and breathalyzer results to blood draws and accident reports. David Mansour is well-versed in identifying procedural errors, unlawful traffic stops, and improper testing procedures that can make the difference between a conviction and a dismissal.

DRUG CHARGES

Our firm also represents clients charged with drug possession, sales, trafficking, and manufacturing. Whether the charge involves marijuana, cocaine, heroin, methamphetamine, or controlled prescription medications, we closely examine the legality of searches, warrants, and police conduct to protect your rights.

DOMESTIC VIOLENCE

Domestic violence allegations can disrupt families and lead to lasting consequences, including restraining orders, jail time, and impacts on custody and employment.

THEFT AND PROPERTY CHARGES

For those facing theft and property crime charges, including shoplifting, burglary, grand theft, or robbery, our defense strategies focus on challenging the prosecution’s evidence, questioning witness credibility, and uncovering mitigating factors that can influence the outcome of your case.

WHITE COLLAR

Our firm is also equipped to handle complex white-collar crimes, including embezzlement, fraud, money laundering, insider trading, and tax evasion. These cases demand a meticulous, detail-oriented approach.

FIRE ARM CHARGES

Gun and firearm offenses carry significant penalties, particularly when involving unlawful possession, carrying a firearm without a permit, or the use of a firearm in the commission of a crime. At Mansour Law, we conduct thorough investigations that may raise search and seizure issues and other defenses that can be critical in these high-stakes cases.

VIOLATIONS OF PROBATION

If you’ve been accused of violating probation, swift action is crucial. David Mansour works quickly to contest alleged violations, negotiate alternatives to incarceration, and fight for probation reinstatement or modifications to protect your freedom.
