Being young is all about learning from mistakes. Unfortunately, sometimes those mistakes can have serious legal consequences. While many of us wish we could just move on and count a moment of poor judgment as a learning experience, we often have to face the repercussions. However, a bad decision shouldn't necessarily cause lasting consequences or destroy your experience of milestones like college.
Our office, located in Nacogdoches, Texas, focuses on the defense of state and federal criminal charges and accusations. We provide representation pre-indictment, at trial, and on appeal. We also handle matters such as expunction of criminal records, petitions for non-disclosure, petitions to seal juvenile records, petitions for early release from probation, and obtaining occupational drivers licenses.
Sometimes, in the blink of an eye, an ill-informed or impulsive decision can change the course of your or someone else's life. Criminal charges are serious, but they're not always permanently life-altering. In many cases, the consequences of a poor choice can be negotiated.
Because criminal cases are handled differently depending on the state you're in, it's advisable to find an attorney to represent you who is well-versed in state-specific criminal law.Dean Watts, Attorney at Law, has over two decades of representing people embroiled in legal trouble, whether it's over a misdemeanor offense or felony charges.

Many college careers have been cut short as a result of arrests and criminal convictions. Even relatively low-level charges such as possession of marijuana are typically a violation of the student code. Disciplinary actions may include loss of scholarships and financial aid eligibility, suspension and possibly expulsion.
College students don't always appreciate what a criminal conviction means for their future. Having a misdemeanor or felony conviction on your record can make passing job background checks and buying or even renting a home more difficult. Even as they're going through the criminal justice system, students sometimes don't think of the consequences.

I've only ever needed to hire 2 lawyers and the difference between my first experience and my interactions with Dean Watts was a night and day difference! Mr Watts took his time listening to me and my concerns, he was very polite, knowledgeable, reassuring and communicative. He was VERY quick to respond to any questions I had and never made me feel like I was bothering him. He provided exceptional service at a fraction of the cost of my previous lawyer and I'd recommend him to anyone who might be in need of a darn good lawyer. Thank you for your help and expertise, Mr Watts!

I was in a bind with a legal situation and Mr. Watts was there with his professional avenues to help me out quickly. Not only did I get what I needed to continue on with my life but he took the worry out of worrisome for me. I am a busy woman and mother and just did not have the time or all kinds of money to throw around at lawyers. Mr. Watts is my first call if and when me or my family and friends need a GREAT and PROFESSIONAL lawyer for circumstances that can be beyond our control.
THANKS MR.WATTS!!

From the first moment I spoke with Attorney Dean Watts just this past Monday, for the initial time, I could immediately feel the passion, drive, & will-power that he would do his best to take on our case regarding my husband. He was very blunt and honest so that we knew what the outcome options could be regardless if they were positive or negative. Which I highly admire in an attorney! He is always more than happy to talk you when you just need a reassurance regarding your love ones future! I would 100% recommend his knowledge & expertise for any criminal accusations you may need to fight for,
