Federal Criminal Defense FAQ – Dallas

Answers to local questions about complex cases.

  • Where are federal cases heard in Dallas, TX?

    Federal cases in Dallas are handled at the Earle Cabell Federal Building and Courthouse in the Northern District of Texas. Your case will be prosecuted by a U.S. Attorney and follow federal court rules, which are distinct from Texas state procedures. It’s critical to work with a lawyer who regularly practices in federal court.

  • What should I do if I’ve been contacted by the FBI or IRS?

    Do not speak with agents without legal representation. Politely decline to answer questions and let them know your attorney will be in touch. Anything you say can be used to build a case against you. Our team can help you respond carefully and begin protecting your legal position.

  • How serious are federal sentencing guidelines?

    Federal sentencing guidelines can lead to steep penalties, especially if you’re convicted of fraud, conspiracy, or drug trafficking. Judges have some discretion but are often influenced by these guidelines. We help clients understand sentencing exposure and build mitigation strategies early.

  • Can you help even if I live outside Dallas?

    Yes—federal charges are often filed based on where the alleged crime occurred, not where you live. We represent clients from across Texas and beyond in federal courts based in Dallas. Our team can coordinate remote consultations and manage in-person appearances when needed.

  • Can federal charges be dismissed before trial?

    In some cases, yes. We review every indictment for procedural errors, constitutional violations, and evidentiary weaknesses. Dismissals may be possible if the government overreaches or cannot support all elements of the case.
