During one of the darkest periods in my life I was referred to Michael and Liz by another attorney from Austin. I wasn’t guilty of what I was accused of so it was important for me to seek out Good counsel. After my first meeting with them I was certain I had found it. During the almost year-long process they kept me informed and reassured me that they were going to do everything possible to help me get out of this situation. Liz is well organized and very on top of her game. Michael maybe one of the sharpest legal minds in Williamson County and the day I walked out of court free I was happy he was by my side. I sincerely hope I never need their services again but if I ever got in a situation where I needed a great attorney I know who to call.

Michael Price and his firm are the best top notch lawyers. Communication throughout the entire process was stellar. He was able to work with me and get the best case scenario. I called multiple lawyers and Michael stood out the most when it came to professionalism, honesty and transparency. They are 100% responsive even on the weekends, and after normal working hours. 10/10 recommend. Michael’s jokes are pretty good too.

Michael is phenomenal. He does his dudiligence, knows the law backward and front, has great contacts, and has the ability to win whatever is thrown at him. He went above and beyond for me when I needed him when I was wrongfully charged in Williamson and Travis County on a crime I did not commit. Not once did he tell me to plea because no matter how good the deal, he didn’t want me to plea on something I didn’t do. Id recommend Michael and anyone he works with or referrers because he is a stand-up individual with an amazing work ethic.

Michael was extremely helpful in my delicate case. He took the time and efficiency to tackle the situation at its finest approach with the proper strategy. According to how it was looking he was able to give me the best scenario possible even when the odds seemed to be against us. After going back and forth for the period of time needed, he was successful in making the best possible scenario come to fruition. I highly recommend him and if I could give his firm 100 stars I would. He is a superb attorney who definitely knows how to make the best things possible as long as the client is always honest and is a stand forward person.

Frequently Asked Questions
What Does a Criminal Defense Attorney Do?
A criminal defense lawyer represents individuals or organizations accused of criminal conduct. Our primary role is to protect the legal rights of their clients throughout the criminal justice process. This includes providing legal advice, investigating your case, negotiating with prosecutors, representing clients in court, and developing defense strategies aimed at achieving the best possible outcome—whether it’s a dismissal, reduction of charges, or a favorable plea deal. Their goal is to ensure a fair trial and to advocate for their clients’ interests every step of the way.
Won’t Hiring a Lawyer Make Me Look Guilty?
While the public may think that hiring a lawyer makes you look guilty, it makes no difference to the District Attorney’s office. Rather, it shows that you are taking the situation seriously and protecting your legal rights. Regardless of guilt or innocence, everyone has the right to legal representation, and having a lawyer ensures that your case is handled properly. In fact, securing a lawyer early on can prevent misunderstandings, protect you from self-incrimination, and improve your chances of a favorable outcome. It’s a smart and responsible decision, not an admission of guilt.
How Long Will My Case Take?
Every case is different. The length of a criminal case can vary widely depending on the complexity of the charges, the court’s schedule (and load), and other factors. Some cases can be resolved quickly (like simple DWIs), while others may take several months or longer. We will keep you informed of your case’s progress and work diligently to achieve a resolution as efficiently as possible.
How Much Does it Cost to Hire a Lawyer?
The cost of our services depends on the complexity of your case. Simple DWIs might be resolved quickly, while assault charges can take longer to sort out. During your initial consultation, we can discuss our fee structure and work with you to develop a payment plan if necessary. We believe that everyone deserves a strong defense, regardless of their financial situation.
What Happens if I am Convicted?
The consequences of a conviction depend on the specific charges and the severity of the offense. Potential penalties can include fines, jail or prison time, probation, community service, and a permanent criminal record. A criminal record can also affect your employment, housing, and other aspects of your life. Our goal is to minimize these consequences and protect your reputation and your future.
