Dallas Criminal Defense Lawyer Attorney

John Helms

FIGHTING FOR YOUR FREEDOM


Hello, my name is John Helms I have been a criminal justice trial attorney for more than 20 years. As a federal criminal prosecutor for the Northern District of Texas, I never lost a trial or an appeal.

If you are reading this message, it means that you or someone you love has been charged, or soon will be facing charges, for a criminal offense in the state of Texas. Because of my background prosecuting criminal cases against defendants who were facing serious jail time in Federal and State penitentiaries, I am uniquely positioned to evaluate and assess both sides of a criminal defense case.

Over the course of my career, I’ve found that my clients truly appreciate the time, effort, and creativity I put into every case. I am here to help you when you need help the most. That is a responsibility I take very seriously.

(John Helms)
