About the Firm

Founded on one idea:
counsel you can reach.

“I opened this firm in 2011 because too many people were handed to whoever was free that morning. Here, the attorney you meet is the attorney who appears.”

We work diligently to secure the best possible result for each client within the framework of the law — from the Dallas–Fort Worth metroplex to clients across the United States.

How We Work

Four steps, and you know where you stand at each one.

No mystery about process or price. Here is exactly what happens between your first call and your day in front of the decision-maker.

01 — Consultation

Straight answers before you commit.

You describe the situation in plain terms. We tell you what the law actually allows, what it will take, and what it will cost — before you commit to anything.

02 — Case assessment

The record, read properly.

We collect the record: filings, notices, charging instruments, prior applications. Most matters turn on a document someone else overlooked.

03 — Strategy

A written plan you can hold.

You get a written plan with the realistic outcomes ranked, the deadlines that govern them, and the decision points that are yours to make.

04 — Representation

The attorney you met, in the room.

We file, negotiate, appear, and — where it is warranted — try the case. The attorney you met is the attorney in the room.

Why Socks Law

Four commitments, held on every matter.

Stated once, applied to every file that comes through the door.

01

Commitment to Quality

Technical and service quality both — a detailed, deliberate approach to preparing your case, not a template with your name pasted in.

02

Client-Focused

We value our clients and are sensitive to their needs. Going the extra mile is part of who we are, not an upsell.

03

Experience & Excellence

Years of specialized expertise across immigration, criminal, tax, and probate law, consistent with the firm's mission.

04

No Hidden Fees

Transparent, affordable rates quoted in writing before the work begins — a commitment to fair cost and honest value.

The Firm

The lawyer who meets you is the lawyer who fights for you.

From the first consultation we build strategy — anticipating the government's position and preparing the record accordingly. Because immigration and criminal matters are handled in the same office, a plea is never discussed without weighing what it does to your status.

A firm is measured not by the letters it sends, but by the rooms it is willing to enter.
What People Say

Results our clients remember.

Four practice areas, one attorney, and clients who come back for unrelated matters. Tap through what they said.

Client names abbreviated for privacy. Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome.

A great lawyer throughout the whole process. He explained every step before it happened and never left me guessing.

Common Questions

Before you call, here is what most people ask.

Still unclear? A consultation costs you nothing but the time it takes to explain the situation.

You explain your situation and we tell you where you stand. Consultations are confidential, and speaking with us does not obligate you to hire the firm.

Yes. Immigration matters are federal, so we represent clients throughout the United States. Criminal matters are handled in Dallas and the surrounding Texas counties.

Frequently, and often more severely than the criminal penalty itself. Because this firm practices both, the immigration consequence is weighed before any plea is discussed — not after.

Every document you have received: notices, receipts, prior filings, charging papers, court dates. Bring the envelopes too — dates of service matter.

Your matter is handled by an attorney who knows your file from the first consultation through resolution, with direct access for questions throughout.

Fees are quoted before the engagement begins, in writing, so you know the cost of the work at the outset. Ask about payment arrangements during the consultation.
