If you have been arrested and charged with a misdemeanor or felony crime, this may have serious consequences on your career, family, and future. Even if you have not been arrested but are being investigated by the police or Child Protective Services (CPS), you need an experienced criminal defense attorney to guide you and protect your rights.
Quick and proper action may help prevent an arrest or stop an investigation. Regardless of the charge, you have rights that deserve to be protected and represented in court. I believe that we live in the greatest country in the world with the greatest judicial process on earth. However, I am aware of the flaws in our system which tend to take advantage of clients who are poorly represented.

Services
I began my career in 1996 as a misdemeanor prosecutor for the Tarrant County District Attorney's Office where I handled hundreds of DWI cases, theft cases, and drug-related charges. I was later promoted to a felony prosecutor position where I handled hundreds of felony cases, including sexual assaults, drug cases, aggravated robberies, and burglaries.
Having practiced criminal defense for over 20 years, I have spent a lot of time helping clients through Driving While Intoxicated (DWI) cases. A DWI charge is the one crime where I meet the most respectable citizens our country has to offer. Many people, who would not have otherwise committed a crime, can find themselves arrested for DWI.
Please contact me as soon as possible to begin protecting your future, if you have been arrested for possession of marijuana. I have been successfully defending those accused of all types of drug crimes since 2000 as a criminal defense lawyer. I will work diligently for my clients, with the purpose of putting them in a position that will prevent the arrest and charge from staying with them for the rest of their lives.
If you have been ticketed or arrested for any grade of theft, you need a good theft defense lawyer as soon as possible. Theft is an offense that will almost certainly prevent you from reaching your future goals if it is revealed on a background check. It is imperative that you have an experienced theft lawyer with a successful record of defending all types of theft charges.
I am seeing more and more people arrested at Dallas Fort Worth International Airport and Dallas Love Field for having a gun or knife on them when they attempt to go through the screening at the airport. The law states that a person commits an offense if the person intentionally, knowingly, or recklessly possesses or accompanies a firearm, "location restricted knife", club, or prohibited weapon in or into a secured area of an airport.

Hiring Mr. Handy was the best possible decision I’ve ever made. He was very open & honest with me from the beginning. Easy to talk to & is extremely knowledgeable about the law. He got me the best possible outcome due to my mistake & I honestly feel nobody could’ve handle my situation better than Mr. Handy!
Also, his Parelegal, Kim is absolutely terrific. She was always available & answered all my questions & really was there for me. This team is sensational & I will highly recommend Mr. Handy to anyone I know who needs legal council.

I have never met mr. Handy. That was a first experience for me not meeting an attorney. I am still shocked that i never had to make his acquaintance in person, although i would have liked to meet him. I am so grateful to have found an attorney such as Mr. Stephen Handy. I tried to get in touch with other attorneys, some of which never returned my call or took a long time. Mr. Handy handled my affairs even though I am out of state. I believe that Mr. Handys expertise is of the highest level with a profound knowledge of the legal system. I was very surprised at the expeditious nature Mr. Handy took

My experience with Steven Handy was a very good one, it was very positive. He was up front with me about how my case could or couldn’t go from the first day I met with him in office. His paralegal was very professional and always kept me updated. Everything was all you can ask for out of a legal firm. Hopefully I don’t have to do business with him again but if I need representation for any reason I will definitely return to Steve Handy.

Stephen Handy is the best attorney in Texas. Stephen took a seemingly impossible situation that would have severely affected the quality of my life and completely turned it into a manageable situation. I 100% believe he was the only one that could have made this happen. It’s not an exaggeration to say that any and all opportunities that I have and may have in the future are due to the hard work and persistence and dedication that Stephen Handy put in my case. I will be forever grateful. Thank you Stephen Handy !
