Call Now — 469-415-1033Defense Across Every Serious Charge
Texas criminal law overlaps across charge types — which is why broad, intersecting trial experience matters. These are the charges we defend most.
Drug Crimes
From simple possession to trafficking allegations, most drug cases hinge on how the evidence was obtained. We challenge unlawful searches and stops and hold the State to its burden.
Assault Charges
Assault and family violence allegations move fast and carry consequences beyond the courtroom, including protective orders. We build a defense around the full context, not just the report.
What a Trial-Tested Defense Team Gives You
Extensive Experience
Founding attorney Scott E. Edgett has handled thousands of criminal cases. You're not a training case for a new associate.
Local Knowledge
Based in McKinney and Prosper, our team has working relationships with the prosecutors, judges, and investigators handling your case.
Willing to Go to Trial
Most cases end in a plea, but a lawyer who has proven he'll take a case to a jury has more leverage at the negotiating table.
Broad, Intersecting Experience
Many firms handle one charge type. Our range across drug, assault, and related cases means we catch overlapping issues others miss.
Free Consultations
Criminal defense doesn't pay on contingency — we still offer a free, no-obligation consultation before you decide anything.
Available 24/7
An arrest doesn't wait for business hours, and neither do we. Reach a member of our team any time, day or night.
Outcomes That Speak for Themselves
Every case is different, but our record reflects how we fight for clients facing these exact charges.
Past results do not guarantee a future outcome. Every case is evaluated on its own facts.
Real Words From the People We've Stood Beside
After a false charge, this team worked the case until it was dropped — I couldn't have asked for better people in my corner.
Scott's preparation and composure in front of the judge put the prosecution on its heels from the start.
Questions Before You Call
Do I have to use a public defender?
You have that right, but public defenders in Texas often carry caseloads far above recommended limits, and some counties require repayment of “free” representation. A private trial attorney can give your case more direct attention.
Will a plea deal always be offered?
Prosecutors often push for a fast plea, but that's not always the best outcome available. An attorney willing to prepare for trial has more leverage to negotiate — or fight the charge outright.
What if my rights were violated during the stop or arrest?
Constitutional violations — like an unlawful search or a stop without cause — can be grounds to have evidence excluded or a case dismissed. This is reviewed in every case we take.
Is the consultation really free?
Yes. There's no cost and no obligation to schedule a consultation and understand what you're facing.
