Mesquite Criminal Defense Lawyer

Former Dallas Assistant District Attorney defending Mesquite residents — in the Dallas County courts that handle nearly every Mesquite arrest.

Mesquite sits almost entirely inside Dallas County, so most Mesquite arrests are prosecuted by the Dallas County District Attorney and heard at the Frank Crowley Courts Building. Ray Hindieh spent years inside that office as a prosecutor, and today he uses that inside knowledge to defend Mesquite families from our offices just west of the city — in English and Spanish, 24 hours a day.

Mesquite cases: Dallas County — and the Kaufman County edge

Most of Mesquite lies in <strong>Dallas County</strong>, so the typical Mesquite arrest is filed by the Dallas County DA and heard at the Frank Crowley Courts Building. But small portions of Mesquite extend into <strong>Kaufman County</strong>, and a case arising on that side is handled by Kaufman County’s courts and prosecutors instead — a completely different courthouse, docket and DA. Confirming which county your case actually falls in is one of the first things we do, because it changes everything that follows. Class C tickets from a Mesquite officer, meanwhile, may stay in the Mesquite municipal court.

Why a former Dallas prosecutor matters here

Because the overwhelming majority of Mesquite cases run through Dallas County, having a lawyer who once prosecuted inside that office is a real advantage. Ray Hindieh knows what the Dallas DA needs to see to reduce or dismiss a charge and where their cases tend to be weakest. If your matter instead falls in the Kaufman County slice of Mesquite, that same prosecutorial experience translates directly to how we read and answer the State’s case there.
