Johnny Houston is a well-known and experienced criminal defense and trial attorney, but has also been the elected Judge for the City of Red Bank for over 11 years. This judicial experience, possessed by very few criminal defense attorneys, gives him keen insight into criminal and trial matters and brings the perspective of an experienced judge to your case.
At Houston & Alexander, PLLC, we are strong advocates for people facing difficult legal problems in criminal law and personal injury. We are experienced, knowledgeable and work tirelessly for our clients. During your initial consultation, an attorney at our firm can review your case and discuss possible legal strategies with you.
The day you are charged with a criminal offense may be the most distressing day of your life - but it does not have to be the most defining moment of it. Knowing that you have an experienced attorney on your side, with a proven track record of success in the courtroom and a profound understanding of the legal processes can reduce the impact at this stressful time.
Any claim of assault is taken seriously in Tennessee but, in certain circumstances, a charge of aggravated assault will be filed. This is usually charged as a felony crime in Tennessee and a conviction comes with serious penalties as well as longer-term consequences. You must defend the charge to avoid serious repercussions for your freedom, employment, immigration status and other aspects of your future.
Domestic assault is a serious criminal charge in the State of Tennessee. Although domestic assault is typically a misdemeanor, the ramifications are serious and the consequences can affect you for literally the rest of your life. If you are charged with domestic assault, aggravated domestic assault or domestic vandalism, you should call Houston & Alexander immediately.

I suffer from PTSD related to my time in the military along with major depression and severe anxiety. I had been harboring stress and keeping it from my friends and family. Though a hard worker and leader, the stress I was under from bad experiences and loss finally showed up one night with a DUI. This was the first sign that I had been drinking to cope privately with the loss of many close friends over the years. We found Bret and his staff, and they recognized what was going on. They helped me get through rehab and get my life back in order before the court case was even resolved. They then showed

I am a European Citizen in the Green Card Process to live in this great Country for Life. However, a stupid decision 2 years ago put all that at risk. I was told - Bret Alexander and his firm is the person I should go to and I am glad that I did, even if it looked expensive at first sight. Now - 2 years later - I know, it was worth every single cent. He was on my side when I needed him and answered every question I had, clearly and understandable. I can’t imagine anyone else who would have gone that deep into a case to help me, and they knew how to do it. He found and saw things wrong in my case

Johnny and his team saved me in a time I thought I had no options! Amanda was not ONLY by my side, she had my side and my best intentions in mind at all times. They fought for me and I gave them complete trust to do so. The entire team of Houston and Alexander, I would now call family. Thank you for giving me my life back. They can do the same for you! I’d give 5 more stars if I could.
Thank you again everyone, from the bottom of my heart.

My biggest fear when I was charged with DUI was having to do jail time. I hired Houston & Alexander, and they worked on my case for about a year and a half. It was a long road with a bunch of court appearances, but they didn’t give up on me and eventually got my case reduced to reckless driving. No jail time! And I can keep my driver’s license. Thanks so much to the whole team for making this possible.

A close family member of mine faced a very difficult charge, in a small town, that almost caused him and his wife to lose everything. School, job, housing were all affected negatively. The criminal charge was about to make everything much worse - and permanent. He was not from the area and didn't know who to call or trust. He and his wife spoke with Bret Alexander, with the support of the family, and we all knew Bret was the right lawyer right away. He pressed for patience and helped the couple navigate the many criminal court proceedings. He knew when and how to talk with the prosecutors. The

Houston & Alexander law firm was amazing, they are very professional and willing to help any way they can. I am a class A CDL driver and they were able to help me keep my license and and prevent me from losing my job. Jay Underwood took my DUI and was able to reduce it down to a public intoxication. There are not enough stars to give this team the proper rating. Thank you all for an amazing job very well done.
