POS law firm. This whole thing is a scam. I sure they will go under soon. You can't run a law firm on scams forever. What goes around comes around. They won't work on your case, they will only ask you for money. I had to change lawyers. Huge waste of time and money. Horrible people here.

Richard saved my life from the path of destruction it was on. My twenties was full of many hazy memories and mistakes. I should be in prison for my selfishness, but because of one man and my sweet Gama I doing life right. So many other lawyers would have quit on me, but Richard kept going. He kept me out of prison and got me into treatment and kept it where I could seal my record. I'm now married to the love of my life with two of the most precious little girls a man could wish for. I just got my master plumber standing and own my own business. This wouldn't be happening If one man, Richard McConathy, didn't save me. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Got the first and last DWI of my life. I was so overwhelmed and did't know where to start. The entire system is designed to confuse the average person to the benefit of the State. I found Richard online and watched his videos. I felt very at ease with how he said he would handle my case after meeting in person. From start to finish the firms handling of my case was outstanding. If your in need of DWI defense in North Texas call Richard McConathy first.

Richard and Brian are some really good lawyers in my book. They took what looked like to me as an impossible situation and somehow got it to turned in my favor. It was a long road and a lot of stress, but these guys have no give up attitude.I would happily recommend Richard and his whole team to handle your case. He did great on mine.

You never think your going to be arrested in your life. You go to school, get a good job and work hard. Then someone you thought cared for you points the finger and said you did something to get back at you. No one listened, especially the police and DA. That all changed after I hired Richard McConathy. He took over the case and he and his team of lawyer fought back and won. Not only did he fight hard, but he treated me like a person and not a number. This guy takes pride in what he does and cares about you as a client, but more importantly as a person.

I cannot give enough praise to Richard and the whole staff that worked on my case. From the start Richard was very professional and took charge on my case. This is a larger criminal defense firm with about 6 lawyers. I was afraid i wouldn't get the personal touch but that was not the case. Every time I called I received a return call that day. Felt at ease and in good hands, especially with Richards paralegal Cynthia. This legal team has the man power to take on bigger cases like mine and I am happy I hired them. Thanks to everyone for there hard work.

Cannot say enough good things about Richard and Brian. From start to finish my case was handled with care and professionalism. They always took the time to make sure I knew what was going on in my case. At the start things looked very bad from a evidence standpoint, but Richard told me to give it time and allow his team to sort it out. I couldn't be happier with the results. Thanks to all including the staff of paralegals, great job!

After a night out with my boss I was asked to get the car. While i was pulling up the the club door the cop watching the parking lot pulled up behind me. After a few tests I was arrested right there in front of my boss.luckily he was understanding and sent me to his lawyer Richard McConathy. Richard and Brian fought hard and got the case dismissed! These guys are the best in the Biz.

Mr. McConathy is a very skilled and dedicated attorney, from the moment I hired Mr. McConathy I knew I had made the right decision. Sadly I didn't hire Mr. McConathy when I was first charged, like many charged with a criminal offense you have a lot to lose if you are innocent or guilty so finding an attorney who will vigorously defend you is not only your right under the Constitution but will determine the outcome of your case and Mr. McConathy is proof this is true.

I made the mistake of listening to false promises by the first attorney I hired who convinced me he would vigorously defend me instead, he only tried to get me to take a diversion even though he said he knew I was innocent and got upset when I refused. I didn't have to convince Mr. McConathy of my innocent, after reviewing the evidence he knew and told me I was falsely charged. Mr. McConathy always kept me informed of the status of my case, vigorously defended me and just as Mr. McConathy had said on the day of the Pre Trial the District Attorney dismissed my case.

I would highly recommend Mr. McConathy to anyone who is facing a criminal charge. This is a very trying time for anyone facing going to jail, losing their freedom, their reputation and it's important to hire an attorney who will fight for you no matter what you are charged with and not look to settle your case just because it's more convenient for them. This is the kind of attorney Mr. McConathy is, he is a credit to his profession and it's sad their are not more like him to defend our rights.

I can't thank Mr. McConathy enough for the way he treated me and represented me during this trying time. I have the upmost respect for him and should I ever need an attorney again I will not have to look for a competent attorney to represent me, I now know where to find one who I consider an outstanding attorney.

If Trust is important to you(& it should) Richard & his staff are someone to consider. They will take you & your problems seriously. They do not keep you hanging nor want to drag things out. I have had several attorneys & they are not all the same. But I've never had one who actually cared about me. He has a big heart & it's not all about the money. Don't waste your money, hire the Best.

Thanks to Richard I have a clean record! Only been in trouble in my life two times. Once, right out of collage and and 40 years later after I got pulled over last year. In both cases I used a McConathy as my lawyer. I used Richard's father- Tex back in the 70's and now the son. I have to say that tough lawyers run in this families blood. Thanks again Richard for all your hard work.

Just found out that my case will be dismissed after 2 long years of fighting it out with the DA over false claims from my ex. No one believed me that I was innocent, but Richard never gave up and even a few times had to talk me off the ledge. He and Brian are some really good lawyers. The whole staff makes you feel they are with you all the way. Great job.

They worked my case, they did fine. Months later, I needed a SIGNATURE on a statement saying that they did work my case and they refused. I desperately needed this one signature that costs them nothing and takes 3 minutes to scan in. My entire legal status could ride on this and they refused to help out.

they don't care what happens to you. There are plenty of other legal rep who will care about your case. go somewhere else.

I have never been in trouble in my life except traffic tickets. Then I made a really stupid mistake and had my kid in the car. It didn't look good. I was looking at becoming a felon and looking like a really bad mom. I thankfully found Richard McConathy. It took close to a year but he was able to convince the DA to drop my case down and now I'm eligible to have it sealed. I now have my future back. Great office staff and very hands on with the clients needs. Once again a big thanks to the whole office.

Keep this Richard McConathy's number in your phone. Met him at a party a few years back and figured that it wouldn't hurt to keep his contact. I'm glad I did. He got me out of jail within a few hours so i didn't miss work and took the bull by the horns from there. From start to finish Richard had total control of my case. I never had to worry about what was happening. After a year we set it for trial and we got a dismissal when the jury was in the hallway about to come into the court room. Even the judge said it was some strong legal work and I was luck that I had Richard as my lawyer. My personal lawyer for life!

I had a very difficult case and Richard handled it perfectly. He took a situation that all the other lawyers I talked to before him, who said I needed to get ready for a bad result, and made it go away. Besides the results, his professionalism is wonderful and he has a way about him that put me at ease. I am so happy I hired him on my case.

Wow, Wow, Wow! Richard McConathy is the best criminal defense lawyer in DFW. I was being charged for defending myself from my EX and it got filed as a felony. My sweet Dad told me to use his friend as my lawyer. This lawyer was very nice man but as the case went on I started to see he wasn't familiar with criminal law. I was set for trial and I was in a total panic. I found Richard and he agreed to take over the case with only two week to get ready. After looking at the file for ten minutes he found an error in my EX's statement and used it in court. The judge agreed and the case was dismissed and I got a ticket. From a felony facing up to 10 years to a 50.00 dollar ticket Wow! Only hire real criminal defense attorney. Richard McConathy is the best.

I am very happy I found this firm to handle my case. I made a big mistake coming home from Denver with a few items that were legal in that State, but quickly learned by Texas highway patrol it was not here. It's a felony! My friend got charged with the same case as well. He went with a lawyer friend of his family that does civil law. I wanted a criminal lawyer. What a big difference in how the cases were handled. My case was knocked down to a class C and just had the case erased off my record. My friend took 3 years of felony probation and we were in the same car. Great work by Richard and the whole team up at the office.

I was in a really bad situation last year. I was accused of a crime by someone I trusted and knew they were lying but know one believed me. After talking to about 100 lawyers I was convinced I was going to prison for the rest of my life. Then I found Richard McConathy. He challenged the DA case and evidence. After almost a year of threats of prison (40 years) the DA dismissed my case on the day of trial just like Richard predicted. The person accusing me backed out of coming to court after they got word what Richard and Brian had on them. I trusted in these guys and they fought hard for me. I owe them for the next 40 years of freedom I now have back. thanks Team McConathy!

Over the years, our financial advisory firm has referred clients to the McConathy Law Firm. Each time, they were successful at winning the case.

Highly recommend!

Do NOT hire this firm, they are a total rip off, I fired them due to their inability to communicate or tell me what was going on with my caes, they only contacted me for money, literally they give me 5 minutes to make a decision before walking into the courtroom. Mr McConathy is great at convincing you to hire him by scaring you to death he will pressure you and put the iron claws in you to scare to into hiring them and then they overbill you and do nothing. Before my felony was ever FILED with the county and before they could have done any work on that case, I fired them, they kept, no; rather they STOLE an additional $1, 400.00 of my money, AFTER billing me 500.00 for a traffic ticket!!!! I make $14.00 an hour and am struggling to pay my bills, they are crooked, how do you take money for work you NEVER DID. Im filing with the BBB against them, get another lawyer all they want is your money they don't care about you and will take your money and take the first deal the D.A. gives them and charge you ridiculous amounts and leave you out to dry. RUN FROM THIS LAW OFFICE AND FAST!

Fighting a Felony DWI with Child, Mr. Bolton was able to get a good deal seeing I finish probation conditions. After a year of fighting, stress, anxiety we closed my case 18 months of probation, classes, community service, and interlock device. If I successfully complete probation with no problems, my felony DWI with child will be reduced to a Class B DWI Misdemeanor. Mr. Bolton answered all my questions, concerns, and returned my calls in a timely manner. After speaking to different lawyers making all kinds of promises, this law firm explained what I am facing, consequences, and what strategy we can take to get where we want to be. I am pleased with the results I received, now it is time for me to do my part and complete probation. Will update once probation is complete. Hope this helps someone making a stressful decision.

Mr. McConathy promised he would pay me for the time I missed at work, which he only paid for one day. I was there for two and I am still waiting for the other check. I have the subpoena for both days and I appeared both days. His attorney promised me something in writing and he has yet to keep his word.

When I was recently faced with multiple DWI cases, I wanted to be represented by the best Attorneys. I am qualified as a physician & health administration professional, and wanted to protect my career, reputation and rights. After researching, I learned about the Law Offices of Richard C. McConathy as being the top law firm. From our discussion, I immediately knew that I wanted to be represented by Attorneys Richard, Brian and their firm comprising of highly experienced Attorneys, and hired their professional services.

A couple of days back, Richard gave me the great news of achieving an excellent outcome on my cases. I feel very fortunate for making the right decision of selecting the Law Firm.

Their offices are impressive, well appointed and very comfortable. Their staff is very friendly and have been thorough all along in providing timely correspondence, clarifications and quick to arrange meetings.

I highly recommend their services for anyone who wants excellence in legal representation.

I was JUST A NUMBER! They would hardly ever show up for court dates (just kept postponing) and once came and represented someone else and left, I had to wait to the end and the judge had to call and ask if they forgot about me. When my FINAL day in court came, they sent someone I've never seen OR even talked to, to represent me! Thank GOD I wrote a letter the night before about myself and what they should know, because up to that point, that had not taken the time to get to know me. Richard did not even take the time to watch the police video with me, he only came in 5 minutes left of it and pretty much gave me no hope. I was just another case for them and they got a WHOLE BUNCH of my $$. NOT worth it! A little more personable attitude would have made me feel better at such a horrible time in my life.
