Why I Fight...

My fights for my clients have never been about money. They have always been about liberty—about doing the right thing for men and women from every walk of life.

I’ve been fortunate to help many clients win their freedom. Yet I’ve also witnessed my share of injustice. I’ve seen innocent people convicted of crimes they did not commit.

Still, we continue to fight, because every human being is worth fighting for, no matter the accusation.

Echando Una Mano Al Necesitado...

Usted es importante. Toda persona tiene el derecho de pelear su caso y el derecho a la representación de un abogado que no tenga miedo de luchar, que no se deje de nadie, nunca.

State vs. A. Keith Jackson
Facing the death penalty for a capital murder he did not commit, and up against insurmountable odds, Keith Jackson fought his case.

After a two‑month trial, with his lawyers Carlos Garcia and Greg Zaney beside him, Keith finally heard the two most beautiful words in the criminal justice system:

“Not Guilty.”

Keith’s faith in God carried all of us through those times.

Keith Jackson was one of the greatest gifts God put in my life.

RIP, my friend.

State vs. Michael James Scott
Also facing the death penalty for a capital murder he did not commit—and up against insurmountable odds—Michael J. Scott fought his case.

With Carlos Garcia as lead counsel, and co‑counsel Dexter Gilford and original counsel Tony Diaz, Mike fought hard for his innocence. He was convicted and sentenced to life in prison.

But God had other plans.

Five years later, his case was overturned on appeal and eventually dismissed.

In 2025, the real killer was identified, and in February 2026, Mike, Robert Springsteen, Maurice Pierce, and Forrest Wellborn were finally exonerated of the Yogurt Shop Murders—four innocent men falsely accused, finally cleared after 26 years.

State vs. R.C. (Biligual Case)
Lejos de su país y falsamente acusado de agresión sexual, R.C. peleó su caso, poniendo toda su confianza en Carlos García.

Después de una semana de juicio, Carlos García ganó el caso.

Hoy, R.C. vive libre y feliz en su país, junto a su familia.

State vs. F.M.
F.M. never imagined he would find himself accused of aggravated sexual assault of a child—a crime he knew he did not commit.

After a week and a day of trial, the jury rewarded his faith in the system and acquitted him of all charges.

This case illustrated the dangers of faulty memory, source confusion, and police tunnel vision.

State vs. A.M.
Falsely accused by a troubled teenager trying to divert attention from her own brush with the law, A.M. did not stand much of a chance. He faced a Continuous Sex Abuse charge carrying a minimum of 25 years without parole in the penitentiary.

A.M. stood firm. He refused every plea bargain despite the risks and trusted me to defend him.

After a two‑week trial, the jury hung—7–5 for acquittal.

A week later, the district attorney dismissed all charges after A.M. again refused to plead to a misdemeanor back‑time offer.

After twenty months in jail, A.M. walked out of the Travis County Jail a free man.
