Areas of Practice

At Boswell & Moore, we provide focused, personalized defense to clients facing a variety of criminal charges, including:

Drunk driving — There are serious consequences for a DWI conviction. If you have been arrested for DWI, contact Boswell & Moore to manage your defense.
- Breath and blood tests — If a drunk driving suspect refuses a breath test, law enforcement may contact an on-call judge or attorney magistrate who can authorize a blood search warrant. If you have been charged with DUI/DWI, contact our law office for professional legal advice.
- License suspension — We handle driver's license issues related to drunk driving, drug crimes and other matters. We represent clients at administrative (ALR) hearings before the State Office of Administrative Hearings.

- Possession of marijuana — We regularly defend college students who have been charged with marijuana possession. We are conveniently located near the University of North Texas, Texas Women's University, and other nearby schools.
Assault and family violence — A violent crime conviction can have an especially strong impact on your future, including limiting job, housing and educational prospects. It can also negatively impact divorce proceedings and prevent you from owning a firearm.
Theft, fraud and forgery — We represent people accused of theft, fraud and forgery crimes such as shoplifting, check fraud, prescription fraud, identity theft and credit card-related crimes.
Credit and debit card abuse — If you have been accused of stealing a credit card, lying on a credit card application, using stolen credit card numbers to make an online purchase or any related offense, you may be facing serious penalties. We work in a respectful and confidential manner, so clients can maintain their integrity throughout the process.
