Drunk Driving Defense - A cultural stigma has become associated with drunk driving that was not present in our society even a decade ago. Public perception categorizes people charged with drunk driving as criminals, even before they have been convicted of any crime. Being arrested for drunk driving, driving under the influence (DUI), or driving while intoxicated (DWI) can be an unsettling proposition, to say the least. A DUI - DWI conviction in Texas carries with it heavy penalties.

If you have been arrested or accused of drunk driving, DUI, DWI, vehicular homicide, or any other alcohol-related criminal offense, you are probably frightened, confused, and concerned about your future and that of your family. The selection of an experienced attorney is the first step towards regaining control of your life. Please contact us today.

Juvenile Offenses - We can help make sure that your child's rights are protected to get the best legal result possible. We advise clients in areas ranging from delinquency to dependency cases.

Criminal Defense - There is an inequality of power and material resources in the criminal justice system. The government has a large staff of lawyers, police and agents, sophisticated crime labs and experts, and a huge budget provided by the taxpayers. This gives them a tremendous advantage because the legal system is based on the premise that "the whole truth" is that presented at the trial. If a defendant cannot challenge the government's case, or submit his or her own witnesses, then the jury by default will probably accept as true whatever evidence the prosecutor produces. In order to meet this challenge, the Robert T. Jarvis Law Firm seeks to meet the prosecutor fact for fact. Our strength lies in preparation, investigation, motion practice, and trial presentation. By focusing on the defense of criminal cases, we can assure you of the highest quality representation. We represent clients in all types of criminal cases, from minor infractions and misdemeanors to serious felonies.

At the Robert T. Jarvis Law Firm, we provide sound legal advice and practical answers to clients involved in state and federal criminal court proceedings throughout Texas, including the Dallas Fort Worth Metroplex counties of Dallas, Collin, Denton, and Cook. Since 1984, firm founder Robert T. "Bob" Jarvis has worked in a variety of capacities within the Texas criminal justice system. During his stint as a Special Assistant United States Attorney, Mr. Jarvis was responsible for handling a variety of federal criminal cases.

Bob later moved on to a job as an Assistant District Attorney in Dallas, County, where he was responsible for the prosecution of a wide variety of state criminal offenses. Mr. Jarvis has since moved on to private practice and focuses his attention on Criminal Defense and Family Law.

Hired Attorney Mr. Robert Jarvis

When asked if they could get me temporary custody of my grandson immediately due to the fact that my daughter had just assaulted my grandson and myself the legal assistant told me yes and she told me how much money I'd need to accomplish this and follow it thru to final custody as requested by CPS. So I trusted them and paid them. Nothing was walked through as promised and about midway thru they asked for even more money. I was left with only temporary custody and no atty to finish the case.

Bob Jarvis is a total joke all the way around. From no organizational skills from him or any on his staff. No communication possible with him, phone calls were ignored, voice mails were ignored. Emails were worthless, his staff actually told me they didn't check email for weeks at a time. When I dropped him as a lawyer, he took $10,000 from me for work he never performed. If you like a guy with short man syndrome and a guy who lets the other side dictate how he defends you. He is a total joke.
