About Wendy
Wendy Baker is a Texas attorney whose career has centered on felony work. She came to public attention in 1999 when she served as Felony Chief at the Harris County District Lawyer s Office. That role marked a turning point in a career spent largely inside Texas courts.
Her time as Felony Chief placed her at the center of felony prosecutions in Harris County. She handled the administrative side of major cases and worked alongside trial prosecutors. The position required coordinating complex dockets and managing teams of attorneys during intense trial periods.
Over the years Baker’s work has involved trial preparation, witness coordination, and heavy caseload management. She developed an understanding of how cases move from arrest through indictment and trial. Her experience spans courtroom litigation and the behind-the-scenes organization that supports it.
Baker has practiced across the state of Texas. She has worked in environments where quick decisions and careful legal analysis mattered. Colleagues and court staff encountered her in both the courtroom and the office, where case strategy and procedural compliance were daily concerns.
She has not been publicly profiled for landmark decisions or high-profile published writings. Instead, her record reflects steady work on felony matters and the day-to-day realities of criminal practice. That includes preparing evidence, advising trial teams, and ensuring filings follow tight procedural timelines.
Today Baker continues to work in Texas on criminal cases. Her practice remains rooted in felony matters, handling both trial-related tasks and the preparation that makes trials possible. She currently practices criminal law in Texas, concentrating on felony cases.
