Parole Hearing Attorneys
Is your case up for review by the Texas Board of Pardons and Paroles? Hiring a parole representation lawyer cannot guarantee you success. However, what you can expect is thorough assessment of your case from a knowledgeable attorney and proper representation at the hearing.
First Step - Inmate Interview
Should you decide to use our Parole Representation Services for your pending release review, it is important that you contact our office as soon as possible. The attorney who will be handling your case will set up a face-to-face interview with you at your unit of assignment. The attorney will look into your history as an inmate, ask questions about your view of the crime committed, as well as any accomplishments made while incarcerated. Any relevant documents from the court of convictions, your unit of assignment, as well as other sources, will be obtained for review by your parole representation attorney.
Second Step – Building Your Case
Your attorney will be available to you or your family members to answer any and all questions you may have regarding the status of your case. Depending upon the specifics of your case, we may recommend evaluation by specialists or a polygraph test in order to substantiate certain aspects of your case. We will speak with family members and friends and ask that they compile written letters explaining the type of support that they will give if you are paroled.
Final Step – Written and/or Oral Presentation
When we have completed all necessary research and testing a well written parole presentation is compiled. This written presentation will contain the client’s view of the crime, acceptance of responsibility, efforts of rehabilitation, in addition to a well defined parole plan. This written document may be the only opportunity for your attorney to represent you before the board panel. The members of the Texas Board of Pardons and Paroles are only required to meet with the crime victims and their representatives, not the inmate or their legal representatives. This requires the production of a very thorough and well written presentation. In the event your review panel allows attorney presentations, your attorney will be able to present your case before the first voting member of the panel.
