CRIMINAL DEFENSE

Protecting the Accused. Protecting Your Future.

At The H. D. Sanchez Law Firm, PLLC, I don’t judge you by your charges. I stand with you. Whether it’s a first-time DWI, a drug possession case, or a serious felony, I know the system hits hard — especially if you don’t have someone in your corner.

Born and raised in San Antonio, I’ve seen how fast good people get tangled in the legal system. My job is to cut through that, protect your rights, and fight for the best outcome possible. Because here’s the truth: you are more than the accusation against you.

DWI & Driving Offenses

A DWI can change your life in an instant--- license suspension, heavy fines, possible jail time, and a record that follows you for years.

From ALR Hearings to Driving While License Invalid charges, I fight to keep you on the road and protect your future. With more than 20 years of courtroom experience as a former prosecutor and now a San Antonio DWI defense attorney, I know how to spot weaknesses in the state’s case---and use them to fight for you.

In most DWI cases, you only have 15 days from the date of arrest to contest a driver’s license suspension with the Texas Department of Public Safety. Don’t wait. Call me now for a free case evaluation and to protect your license, your record and your future.

Drug Charges

Texas comes down hard on drug cases — but that doesn’t mean the state always gets it right. Whether it’s simple possession, intent to distribute, or allegations of manufacturing, I dig into the details. Was the search legal? Were your rights violated? Did law enforcement overstep?

Even a small marijuana case can wreck job opportunities and your reputation. I fight to keep those mistakes from defining your life.

Assault & Violent Crimes

An argument can spiral in seconds — and suddenly you’re facing assault charges, family violence allegations, or even serious felony accusations. These cases carry lasting consequences for your freedom, your record, and your reputation. I know how important it is to make sure your side of the story is heard.

I’ve defended clients against charges ranging from simple assault to aggravated assault, and I understand the high stakes involved in violent offense cases. With more than 20 years of courtroom experience — including time as a prosecutor — I know how juries, judges, and prosecutors think. They may only see a file. I make sure they see the person behind it.

If you’ve been arrested or accused of assault, don’t wait. Call now for a free case evaluation and start building your defense today.

Theft, Fraud & White Collar Charges

From shoplifting to forgery to burglary, theft allegations can put your reputation on the line. A conviction can follow you for years — limiting jobs, housing, and even relationships. I fight to keep that from happening. I don’t just aim to minimize penalties; I work to protect your name.



Weapons Charges

Texas values the right to carry — but the law has limits. If you’re facing charges like Unlawful Carrying of a Weapon or Felon in Possession of a Firearm, the stakes are high. I’ll stand up for your rights and push back against the state’s case.

Clearing Your Record

Sometimes the best defense is wiping the slate clean. If you qualify for an expunction, order of nondisclosure, or early termination of probation, I’ll help you move forward without the shadow of the past holding you back.

Why I Defend

I became a defense lawyer because I know what it’s like to grow up where people are quick to judge and slow to listen. My promise is simple: I will listen, I will fight, and I will never treat you like just another case.

• Respect where you come from — I don’t care about your past, only about protecting your future.
• Relentless work ethic — I put in the grind, the research, and the fight.
• No big-firm arrogance — Just straight talk and a plan to protect you.

If you’re charged with a crime in San Antonio, Bexar County, or anywhere in Texas, call me today. The sooner I get to work, the stronger your defense will be.
