The Hoelscher Law Office is a Criminal Defense and DWI practice focused on high-end defense of accused persons in Texas. Licensed in State and Federal court, Joseph Hoelscher regularly handles a wide variety of criminal cases including all misdemeanors, felonies, and, of course, Driving While Intoxicated cases.

The practice is geared towards jury trials, meaning that every case is evaluated from the standpoint that it will be fought through a jury verdict, even if the client elects to take a plea deal. This higher level of preparation ensures that each client benefits from Joseph’s past success in trial and reputation as an aggressive and competent attorney. More importantly, every client knows that if he chooses to fight, then he will have a lawyer who wants to fight for him.

Our success is a direct result of our faith in the jury system. Juries are not a mystery to us. They are the final safeguard of our freedom when the government is seeking to take it away. The threat that we will let our fellow citizens decide our fate, instead of the prosecutors and a judge, is a powerful tool to make sure our system functions fairly. The Hoelscher Law Office will make sure that tool is put to expert use in your case.

While not every case is ideal for trial, we will not pressure our clients to “take a deal” or plead guilty. But, when our clients do choose to negotiate an end to their cases, they benefit from the fact that we can, and will, fight any case our clients want us to fight. Prosecutors and judges know that we can prepare and win tough cases and are often more willing to negotiate or uphold plea offers that limit our clients’ risk beyond the “standard deal.” The advantage of hiring a trial lawyer is that if you don’t get a fair deal, you don’t have to take it. That’s why our motto is “Vigilant Defense of Accused Texans.” We stand by our clients to the very end, whether a plea, motions hearings, or a trial.
