A Passionate Defense of Juveniles!
Don’t leave the fate of your child to the state. Call us.
Texas Board Certified® Houston lawyer Tad A. Nelson prides himself on lawyering cases in which juveniles have been charged with a criminal act. All forms of juvenile crimes are serious and real close to the hearts of our legal team. Depending on how these cases are handled, and the counseling given to the young person, a lifetime of change can occur.
In some cases in which favorable verdicts are handed down from Harris County jurors, The Law Offices of Tad Nelson & Associates may see grounds to petition the court to have the criminal records involved with the case removed from the background of the accused young person. We encourage parents to work with us on this end so that the criminal record may not appear in background checks in the future and adversely effect future growth opportunities.
Sex Crime Accusations & Defense
There are several options to defend you. Let us help.
We Don’t Judge Our Clients, We Defend Them
When it comes to defending Houstonians targeted by allegations for sexual related crimes, the 30+ year veteran Houston criminal law attorney knows his way around the courtroom, and how to discredit supposed evidence.
As a ACS/CHAL lawyer-scientist, Tad Nelson wields a high level of skill in scrutinizing trace evidence. As a criminal defense lawyer, he’s also highly adept at disproving said evidence, when possible, by mounting a formidable challenge in pre-trial & litigation proceedings.
In ALL criminal cases involving allegations of sexual assault, its best to have a criminal justice attorney who’ll do the leg-work to reveal the evidence that should be thrown out of court, and the experience to identify it.
Sealing & Removing Criminal Records
Lots of people could clear their records. You may qualify.
Criminal record sealing, expungement, expunction, and Certificates of Non-Disclosure, are a few legal options that the attorneys of the Law Offices of Tad Nelson & Associates may be able to take advantage of when working to remove past or present criminal records & arrest entries from being a part of your criminal background.
Let’s face it, you may lose a number of professional, educational, and business opportunities as a result of being seen as a “known criminal” regardless of your high morals & being previously held accountable of a past mistake.
Heck, you can’t even live in some communities if you have a criminal record. In most cases, when certain conditions are met, we can have your criminal records sealed.
Exploring the possibility of criminal record sealing may be the best option for adults who are experiencing woes related to a past encounter with the criminal justice system in Houston. We can help. Contact us.
