If you have been arrested in Plano, your case is not handled in Dallas. Plano sits in Collin County, so your charge is prosecuted by the Collin County District Attorney and heard in the county courts in McKinney, the county seat. That is a different system with its own judges, prosecutors and dockets — and Ray Hindieh, a former prosecutor, defends Plano families there in English and Spanish, 24 hours a day.
A Plano arrest lands in Collin County, not Dallas County — so the case is filed by the Collin County District Attorney and set in the county courts in McKinney, the county seat, rather than at the Frank Crowley Courts Building in downtown Dallas. Different courthouse, different prosecutors, different judges and different local practices. We handle cases in this system and know how Collin County actually runs, which shapes strategy from the first setting.
Because Ray Hindieh once prosecuted cases for the State, he knows what a district attorney’s office needs to see before it will reduce or dismiss a charge, and where the State’s cases tend to be weakest. Applying that insight to the way the Collin County DA and the McKinney courts operate lets us push for the best outcome — a reduction, a dismissal, or a favorable resolution — instead of guessing at an unfamiliar county.
We represent Plano clients from our Buckner Boulevard office (1412 Buckner Blvd) and our Bishop Arts office (304 W Twelfth St) — a short drive south of Collin County — and we make the trip up to McKinney whenever your case requires it. Arrests do not wait for business hours, and neither do we — call 214-960-1458 any time, day or night.
