Shawn is the best thing that has happened to our family. We hired him on several cases, and he always come out on top! He is a lawyer that actually work for you and demands what he want. His confidence is through the roof, and he ain’t bluffing he’s the best! Anyone looking for a criminal offense attorney hire Shawn Roberts he’s the man for the job!— Daniel · Avvo · September 25, 2026
Outcome was better than expected and better than I could have hoped for. Was arrested for second DWI and spent the weekend in jail. Made bond and had to find a lawyer. Thought at best I was going to have a big fine and a couple years probation and community service if not jail time. I hired Shawn and the result was time served. No probation. No community service. No fine. Nothing!!! He cares about your outcome and wants to keep you out of the system (probation or jail) at all costs and is good at it. I hope to never be in a situation like this again but if I am I will immediately hire him again. Thank you Shawn!— Avvo client · June 10, 2026
I highly recommend Shawn Roberts for anyone needing a criminal defense attorney. He was very honest, and easy to communicate. He handled the case with care and kept me updated every step of the way!— Litzy · Avvo · March 7, 2026
El abogado siempre me respondió mis mensajes y llamadas y resolvió el caso favorablemente.— Avvo client · February 14, 2026
There is no one I’d trust more with my family or friends lives who need representation. The best, hands down. Pay the man! I could go on and on about how amazing Shawn is. He is truly the best at what he does, he has a gift, an art and makes what seems impossible, possible. From the very beginning he was honest, helpful, walked me through everything I needed at any turn while fighting my husband’s case. He is a man of his word and he will shoot you straight. Not only was Shawn our lawyer, he became a very trusted friend and I’d even go so far to say, family. We couldn’t have gotten the crazy amazing outcome we did without you.— Kristy B. · Avvo · November 30, 2025
They don’t call him Sheriff for no reason! Smart, confident, aggressive. Everything I wanted in a lawyer! He also stayed in contact with me and I find that very comforting while dealing with legal matters. Thank you Shawn! You da man!— Sarah · Avvo · February 13, 2025
Thank you for helping me not go to state prison and be home before the Christmas holidays. I highly recommend Shawn Roberts.— Fredo · Avvo · December 17, 2024
Mr. Roberts went beyond our family’s expectations on my son’s case. Due to his knowledge he was able to help my son not step a day in prison and be home with us! We highly recommend Mr. Roberts. God continue to bless you Mr. Roberts.— Yvonne · Avvo · December 9, 2024
Seemed kind of pricey at first but he worked with me and let me make payments. He ended up getting me the best possible result because my case will be dismissed when it’s all said and done. He’s very easy to talk to and was always there for me. Hopefully I’ll never need a lawyer again but if I do I will definitely hire him again.— Elisabeth · Avvo · October 8, 2024
I am truly grateful to have Shawn as my Lawyer. Did everything in his power to make sure I was not behind bars and be a freeman I am today. Very solid man and will do anything to make sure you have your freedom.— Edgar · Avvo · October 4, 2024
I highly recommend Shawn for DWI cases. His expertise, professionalism, and dedication ensured the best possible outcome for my 4th DWI case. Shawn effectively navigated the complexities of my case. His effort resulted in keeping me out of prison for 10 years. I highly recommend Shawn to anyone facing DWI charges!— Victor · Avvo · September 30, 2024
From our first conversation, I knew this was someone I could trust. I hired Mr. Roberts to defend my son. My son was arrested for an assault on a police officer, but it wasn’t him — someone had his ID. This would have destroyed my son’s life. As a mother, I sacrificed it all to pay his lawyer. Best decision I’ve made in my life. Mr. Roberts got this case dismissed, and 3 more additional cases for my son all dismissed. My advice to you, PAY THE MAN. He is worth every dime.— Cassie · Avvo · June 19, 2024
He went above and beyond in our family member’s case and made sure to keep us informed every step of the way. He was very professional and also very supportive to our family during this time. He exceeded all expectations and gave us an outcome we didn’t think was even a possibility. If you’re in search of representation look no further. HE MAKES MIRACLES HAPPEN!— Brandi · Avvo · April 10, 2024
This guy was a gift from God. I honestly can say that the way he worked in trial was amazing. His cross was on another level. Watching him fight the case made you feel like it was him and not you on trial. He fights as if his life depended on it. Most important, he listens to you and does his own investigation. He looked me dead in the eyes and told me he believed me. He may be very expensive but he is worth every dollar.— Avvo client · February 21, 2024
Mr. Roberts. It is 4 AM December 23, 2023. I am not an early riser, but I am up thanking God for you. This has been the most stressful situation my family has ever had to face. The fact that you have stuck by my brother through the years in dealing with this very stressful case speaks volumes. We admire your work ethic, composure, determination and commitment. My brother’s life was at a standstill and because of you he can go into 2024 with new beginnings.— Nicki · Avvo · December 23, 2023
I caught a first degree felony in Brazoria County and was set with $100,000 bond. Shawn came in and got me home in a week with a bond reduction and then he worked hard to get my case handled without me going to prison. The DA originally offered me 12 years and Shawn was able to get me probation so I could stay free and be the husband and new father I am today. Without Shawn I would probably be in prison. He is amazing in the courtroom from the time he enters one.— Ryan · Avvo · December 11, 2023
I have been a client of Mr. Roberts for going on a year, and he is amazing to work with and to have on your side. I have already recommended him to a few friends who really need to hire an attorney who isn’t just all talk. He walks the walk.— Jeri Lauder · Avvo · December 11, 2023
Hired him for 2 cases and been dealing with them for a few years now. He knows what he’s doing and seems to want a personal victory instead of just a win.— Robert · Avvo · December 12, 2023
I just wanna say this is the lawyer you want on your case. If you’re reading this and searching for a lawyer, stop, because this is the one you want. He got 2 of the felonies dropped and also got the FTA dismissed and got me 5 years probation — which was a lesser amount of time than I received on my first ever felony drug charge. He’s there when you need him via person, phone or text.— Jason Thompson · Avvo · January 28, 2023
Shawn was able to get me the best possible outcome in a situation where my loved ones nor I could think was feasible. I was facing an overzealous charge that because of my history had me looking at the rest of my life behind bars. I was looking at 25-life and he managed to get me 6 months. He is expensive but worth every dollar.— Sherri · firm file / Avvo
