College Student Arrests

Harris County Criminal Defense of College Students

In Texas, when college students are arrested and charged with crimes, they have more at stake than just their freedom and reputation, they could also lose out on receiving an education at their institution of higher learning. A college or university may suspend or expel such students if they are convicted of crimes.

Any conviction, even those that result in nothing more than time served in jail and a small fine, can result in painful and unforeseen life-long consequences. Certain crimes can lead to a college student being expelled or denied the opportunity to be licensed in their chosen profession. For any student currently enrolled in college that is charged with a crime, it is vital to have reputable legal representation ready to fight for the best possible result that protects their academic and future professional career.
