Established Texas Law Firm Protects

Clients’ Fundamental Rights

If you are facing charges of DUI, domestic violence, or any other criminal offense, the outcome of your case could have life-long implications. Richard Carrizales, P.C. provides effective and honest criminal defense to clients throughout the greater Dallas area. Since 1988, I have been a fierce advocate for Texas clients who are prosecuted for all types of state and federal offenses, including sex crimes, drug offenses, and violent crimes. With decades of experience defending the rights of clients, I am well-known in area courts as a serious and respected trial attorney.

For over 33 years, clients have counted on my law firm’s representation because they trust in my:

  • Accomplished advocacy — When your freedom and future are on the line, you need a lawyer who has a track record of success. I have been selected as one of the Top 100 Trial Lawyers by the National Trial Lawyers Professional Organization.

  • Innovative approach — One of the most important skills I bring to the table is the ability to identify weaknesses in the prosecution’s case that strengthen my client’s defense.

  • Personalized attention — As a solo practitioner, I will handle every aspect of your case. Your calls won’t get handed off to junior associates, and you will receive the hands-on attention your case deserves.

If you hire my law firm, you can count on an honest, focused, and aggressive effort to protect your rights, freedom, and reputation.

Areas of Practice

    • Homicide

    • Probation

    • Expungements

    • Theft

    • Domestic Violence

  • If you are accused of a crime that violates a statute passed by Congress, you will be tried in federal court. That means you will be prosecuted by U.S. attorneys backed by the U.S. government and its considerable resources. For the best chance at a favorable outcome, you need a criminal defense attorney who has successfully defended clients charged with federal crimes.

  • Being convicted of operating a motor vehicle while intoxicated can have serious consequences, including loss of license, higher insurance costs, heavy fines and jail time. If you were stopped and charged with a DUI/DWI in the Dallas area or anywhere in Texas, I am here to help. I understand that good people can make mistakes and that breathalyzers can give false readings. At RICHARD CARRIZALES, P.C., I have the knowledge necessary to challenge the evidence against you, and the ability to help you pursue the best possible outcome.

  • Severe punishments exist for drug possession and distribution. Being convicted of a drug-related crime in Texas may create serious problems in your personal and professional life. In addition to possible fines and jail time, you may lose your job, be expelled from school, or become alienated from your family and friends. At RICHARD CARRIZALES, P.C., I work diligently to get drug charges dropped or reduced and also make efforts to place clients in rehabilitation programs instead of incarceration. If you have been accused of a drug-related crime in the Dallas area or anywhere in Texas, contact me immediately so that I can provide the defense you deserve.

  • Any criminal charge is serious, but a sex crime allegation can follow you for the rest of your life even when you're acquitted. It's easy to feel hopeless if you find yourself in this situation, which is why you need a skilled defense attorney who will protect your rights and reputation. At RICHARD CARRIZALES, P.C., I understand that not every person who is accused of sexual assault, prostitution, or any other sexual offense is guilty, and I believe that you are entitled to quality legal representation no matter what charge you face. I will present a targeted defense to the allegations, pressing for the best possible result whether that's an acquittal, sentence reduction or favorable plea agreement.

  • If you are charged with assault or battery, you may be facing prison time. You need an attorney who is determined and serious about fighting for you, one with the experience and knowledge to succeed. At RICHARD CARRIZALES, P.C., I defend individuals in the Dallas area and throughout Texas accused of assault or battery. I am a true advocate for your rights if you are charged with these or other violent crimes.

  • Working with Mr. Carrizales was straight to the point. The law office of Richard Carrizales was very dependable and transparent with any information dealing with my case. He got me an amazing plea deal and helped me move forward from where I started. I HIGHLY recommend. I had help from every corner of his office to his paralegal Lizette Arellano and Chris. The law office did their best! Thank you once again.

  • Given that my case affected my immigration status, Richard was helpful in coordinating information about my case with my immigration lawyer as well. His attitude towards my case made me feel like he really cared, and gave me peace of mind. I knew what had happened was unfair and I was willing to go all the way. I am thankful to have taken the advice of Richard and try to fight my case until the end. We managed to get a positive result. CASE DISMISSED.

  • Before anything. I’m incredibly grateful to God for putting Richard Carrizales on my path. I hired him to defend me from a false accusation of the case “Indecency Child Contact”. For my family and myself, it was important to count on a lawyer who believed in my innocence; innocence that Richard Carrizales believed in from the outset... My case was completely dismissed. If you want justice delivered in your case, don't hesitate to hire lawyer Richard Carrizales, he saves you time and money and you will recover your good name for your well-being and your family's.
