Trial-Ready Defense in Chautauqua County & the Southern Tier
From arraignments in Jamestown City Court to felony trials in Chautauqua County Court, we prepare every case as if it’s going to trial.
Criminal Defense
We represent clients accused of misdemeanors and felonies, including theft, assault, DWI, and more. From arraignment to trial, our team prepares each case like it's going to court—because many of them do. We act quickly, negotiate strategically, and go to trial when it’s in your best interest.
Criminal Appeals
We review trial transcripts for legal errors, argue appeals before higher courts, and file briefs that spotlight injustice. Appeals are complex and require deep knowledge of the law and written advocacy—Texido Law has handled over 150 felony appeals across New York State.
Federal Defense
Facing federal charges requires a precise understanding of procedures, sentencing guidelines, and agency investigations. We defend clients against charges like drug trafficking, fraud, and firearms violations—offering strategic defense in U.S. District Court across Western New York.
Post-Conviction Relief
Our team challenges convictions even after sentencing. We file CPL 440 motions to vacate judgments based on new evidence, ineffective counsel, or legal violations. Post-conviction doesn’t mean all hope is lost—Texido Law is ready to fight for a second chance.
Parole Defense
We defend clients accused of violating parole conditions and represent them at revocation hearings. We also assist in advocating for early parole release and navigating conditions imposed by the parole board. When freedom is at risk, every hearing counts.
Record Sealing
New York law allows for the sealing of certain convictions after 10 years. We guide clients through the legal process, prepare petitions, and advocate in court to help them move forward without the burden of an old record showing up on background checks.
