Before opening his own office he worked as a student intern and law clerk at the Nacogdoches County Lawyers Office in 2000. He spent time as a law clerk at McCurdy & McCurdy, LLP in 2003, handling research and assisting on matters that required court filings and case preparation. Those early roles gave him a steady exposure to criminal matters and trial procedure.

He is admitted to practice in Texas and is also admitted to the bar of the U.S. Supreme Court. His State Bar of Texas membership dates to 2006.

He has served on the board of the Denton County Criminal Defense Lawyers Association since 2007, and he joined the Texas Criminal Defense Lawyers Association in 2008.

He holds a 10.0 rating on AVVO and an A+ rating from the Better Business Bureau. These distinctions appear alongside his involvement in trial work and DUI defense circles.
