Criminal Defense for the Accused—Not the Accused-by-Default

Charged with a Serious Crime? You Need a Defense That Fights Back.

Charged with a serious felony in Houston? I take the cases other attorneys avoid—and I don’t back down.

You’re here because you—or someone you care about—is in real trouble. Not a slap-on-the-wrist, pay-a-fine kind of situation. Real trouble. That’s the only kind of case I take.

I’m Alan Cohen, a criminal defense attorney in Houston with more than 35 years of experience fighting for people accused of sex crimes, aggravated assault, and other serious felonies. I don’t waste your time with empty promises. I deliver strategy, action, and results.

01

I focus on serious charges

No DWIs. No petty theft. I defend the toughest cases with everything I’ve got.

02

I answer my own phone

You won’t be passed off to a paralegal or associate.

03

I Don't Sugarcoat

I won’t tell you what you want to hear. I’ll tell you what you need to know to win.

04

I Have Decades of Experience

When everything feels uncertain, I bring the clarity and experience you need to move forward.

Practice Focus

Accused of a serious crime?

Pick up the phone. I’ll answer it myself.

You don’t need just a salesman; you need someone who understands the challenges and knows how to navigate them.

That’s why clients reach out to me first, and why prosecutors recognize that I come prepared and focused on getting results.
