    Cases
    State of Texas vs. James York Brown (Police sergeant James Brown was indicted for capital murder, aggravated kidnapping
    aggravated sexual assault. The alleged criminal acts were supposedly committed in connection to a satanic cult which practiced ritualistic murders
    cannibalism. The State, represented by a special prosecutor
    two "satanic cult experts" sought the death penalty against Sgt. Brown. The case was dismissed prior to trial. The case was also featured as a two-hour special on Dateline NBC, MSNBC Cover to Cover as well as other national television programs)
    United States of America vs. Reginald Rausse (Mr. Rausse was traveling through East Texas by Amtrak train when he was detained by task force officers working a narcotics interdiction on the train. A subsequent consensual pat-down resulted in the discovery of more than a pound of cocaine concealed on his body. After a lengthy suppression hearing in Federal Court, the Judge issued a 52-page order suppressing the evidence. The Government was then forced to dismiss Mr. Rausse's charges)
    United States of America vs. Larry Underwood (Mr. Underwood was stopped on U.S. Hwy 59 in Panola County, Texas northbound from Houston, Texas by a Texas Department of Public Safety trooper. Mr. Underwood consented to a search of his trunk. After one hour of searching the vehicle, the DPS trooper discovered 20 kilograms of cocaine in a hidden compartment in the car's bumper. Mr. Underwood was arrested
    his vehicle seized. The Court held a hearing on a motion to suppress filed by David E. Moore. At the conclusion of the evidence, the Court found that Mr. Underwood had been illegally detained, invalidating his "consent." The Government, with their evidence suppressed, dismissed the charges against Mr. Underwood
    returned his vehicle
    State of Texas vs. Heraclio Vasquez (Mr. Vasquez, an illegal immigrant, was detained on a Greyhound bus in Cass County, Texas by a narcotics task force officer. Mr. Vasquez spoke no English
    the female narcotics officer did not speak Spanish. The officer ultimately searched Mr. Vasquez
    his luggage. She located a pound of cocaine. After a suppression hearing, the District Court found that due to the language barrier, the "consent" to search would not have been voluntary
    suppressed the evidence. The charges against Mr. Vasquez were dismissed).

Lawyers.com Client Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Client Review Ratings™ display reviews submitted by individuals who have either hired or consulted the lawyers or law firms.

The Client Review Rating score is determined through the aggregation of validated responses. People who submit reviews are either individuals who consulted with the lawyer/law firm or who hired the lawyer/law firm and want to share their experience of that lawyer or law firm with other potential clients. Reviewers can be anyone who consults or hires a lawyer including in-house counsel, corporate executives, small business owners, and private individuals.

Martindale-Hubbell validates that a reviewer is a person with a valid email address. As part of the review process, respondents must affirm that they have had an initial consultation, are currently a client or have been a client of the lawyer or law firm identified, although Martindale-Hubbell cannot confirm the lawyer/client relationship as it is often confidential. The content of the responses is entirely from reviewers.

Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome and Martindale-Hubbell accepts no responsibility for the content or accuracy of any review. For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Client Review Ratings, please visit our Client Review Page

Martindale Peer Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Peer Review Ratings™ are the gold standard in attorney ratings, and have been for more than a century. These ratings indicate attorneys who are widely respected by their peers for their ethical standards and legal expertise in a specific area of practice.

The Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings process is the gold standard due to its objectivity and comprehensiveness. Lawyers solicited for peer reviews include both those selected by the attorney being reviewed and lawyers independently selected by Martindale-Hubbell. All reviewers are verified as attorneys through Martindale-Hubbell’s extensive attorney database. Only attorneys practicing at least three years and receiving a sufficient number of reviews from non-affiliated attorneys are eligible to receive a Rating.

What are the different Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings?*

• AV Preeminent®: The highest peer rating standard. This rating signifies that a large number of the lawyer’s peers rank him or her at the highest level of professional excellence for their legal knowledge, communication skills and ethical standards.

• Distinguished: An excellent rating for a lawyer with some experience. This rating indicates the attorney is widely respected by their peers for high professional achievement and ethical standards.

• Notable: This rating indicates that the lawyer has been recognized by a large number of their peers for strong ethical standards.

Lawyers who have received peer reviews after 2009 will display more detailed information, including practice areas, summary ratings, detailed numeric ratings and written feedback (if available). Details for individual reviews received before 2009 are not displayed.

Attorneys that receive reviews from their peers, but not a sufficient number to establish a Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Rating, will have those reviews display on our websites.
