What should you do if you're arrested in Texas?

The first few hours after an arrest can have a significant impact on your case. While every situation is different, there are a few important steps that can help protect your rights:

✔ Stay calm
✔ Remain silent
✔ Do not consent to searches
✔ Contact an attorney as soon as possible

An arrest is a serious situation, but it does not determine the outcome of your case.

Please join us in congratulating our former summer intern, Kristana Hughes, on earning her Juris Doctor degree from New England Law | Boston on May 15! 🎓

Kristana's accomplishments extend well beyond graduation—she earned Dean's List honors for five consecutive semesters during law school, a testament to her dedication and hard work. We loved having Kristana as part of the MC Criminal Law team last summer and couldn't be more excited to see where her legal career takes her next.

Congratulations, Kristana! We are proud of all you've accomplished and wish you continued success in this next chapter. ⚖️🎉

Not all assault charges in Texas are treated the same.

When an allegation involves a spouse, dating partner, family member, or household member, it may be classified as Assault Family Violence — a designation that can carry consequences far beyond a standard assault charge.

In this blog, we explain:

• The difference between assault and assault family violence in Texas
• Why an affirmative finding of family violence matters
• How seemingly minor incidents can lead to felony charges
• The long-term impact on firearm rights and record-clearing options
• Why early legal intervention can make a significant difference

Many people are surprised to learn that family violence allegations can affect their future long after the criminal case ends. Understanding the stakes early is critical.

Artificial intelligence is changing the legal profession in real time, but there are still parts of trial advocacy that technology cannot replace.

In the June issue of the Dallas Bar Association’s Headnotes publication, Messina Madson explores why courtroom presence, preparation, and human connection remain at the center of effective advocacy, even in the age of AI.

Not every case goes to trial, and that’s not by accident.

Strong cases are built through preparation, positioning, and knowing when to push and when to pivot.

The goal isn’t just to react. It’s to stay ahead.

Your phone and social media can become key evidence in a criminal case.

Prosecutors may use:
📱Posts, photos, and videos
📱Text messages and DMS
📱Location data or timestamps

This information can be used to:
⚖️Support the charges
⚖️Challenge your version of events
⚖️Influence how a judge or jury views you

What you should do:
✅Stop posting while your case is pending
✅Do not delete potential evidence without speaking to an attorney
✅Save anything that could support your defense and share it with your lawyer

Digital evidence can make or break a case—and most people underestimate how important it is.

If you or someone you love is facing a criminal investigation, speaking with an attorney early can help protect your rights and your defense.

The moments that matter most in a case usually don't happen in front of a judge. They happen in quiet offices, in strategy sessions, and in the details that get reviewed again and again.

Because when it's your future on the line, there's no such thing as over-preparation.

We’re always grateful for opportunities to give back, but some conversations hit especially close to home.

Kendall Castello recently spoke with students and parents at Trinity Christian Academy about real-world legal issues college students may face, including alcohol, consent, DWI, searches, and the long-term impact of split-second decisions.

As parents ourselves, we know preparing kids for college means more than packing for move-in day. Honest conversations about responsibility, safety, and consequences matter.

If you have a college-bound student this summer, add these topics to your prep list. A little guidance now can make a lifelong difference later.

Thank you to Trinity Christian Academy for the opportunity to invest in your students and families.
