The Impact of the Recession on Houston Criminal Defense Attorneys
When I became a criminal defense attorney in Houston over ten years ago I was told that our area of law is recession proof. This was not the reason why I entered criminal law. In the past, I never took the economy into account. However, the media shows different companies failing daily. That made me reflect on what I was told when we started our Houston Criminal Defense law firm. I must admit that when the downturn started I was apprehensive on how the legal field would be impacted by the recession. Surprisingly, our criminal defense practice has seen a steady increase of business during this time. Perhaps, our field of law is recession proof... it looks to be the case so far.
Over the years, I have realized that when we do outstanding work our clients recommend us to their friends and family when they need help with a criminal matter. I always feel humbled when a previous client recommends us. It says a lot about the work we did for them. It tells me not only that we did a great job for them, but that they trust us enough to represent a friend and/or family member with their freedom. We understand the stress and the feeling of uncertainty that someone is experiencing when they are charged with a crime and strive to relieve them of these feelings.
During these difficult times we will continue to offer free consultations. We will also offerpayment plans, and our fees are very reasonable. Thus, if you have any questions regarding a criminal issue contact our law firm at (713) 242-1779 or visit our website at www.mmalaw.com.
