Firm Overview

Experienced Harris County Criminal Defense Lawyer

Texas state and federal courts place serious consequences on criminal convictions. When you have been arrested for a crime, it takes an experienced law firm to adequately protect your rights and your freedom. The Law Offices of Ned Barnett uses 20 years of experience to help clients achieve the best possible results. We are widely recognized as one of Houston's leading criminal defense firms serving the needs of people facing a broad range of state and federal charges.

A Defense Attorney's Tenacity - A Prosecutor's Perspective

As a former state prosecutor in the Galveston County Criminal District Attorney's Office and as a federal prosecutor for the Department of Justice with the United States Attorney's Office for the Southern District of Texas in Houston, Ned Barnett brings a detailed understanding of prosecution methodology to our criminal defense law practice. He uses this understanding against the prosecution to build strong and successful defenses for our clients. When we take your case, Mr. Barnett quickly examines the case from an opposing viewpoint. He then uses his analysis to create a comprehensive approach that offsets the prosecution's case.

This approach has brought a tremendous record of success. Ned Barnett is Board Certified in Criminal Law by the Texas Board of Legal Specialization, a certification granted to only the most well-qualified criminal defense attorneys. He continues to strive for victory, one client at a time.
