Since being licensed by the Supreme Court of Texas in 1986, I have been providing quality representation and advice to individuals, first in Harris County, and since February 1990 throughout the Johnson County area of Texas. I take pride in being able to provide appropriate counsel and guidance necessary to help my clients overcome even the most challenging legal problems. It is my sincere belief that the best possible service to my clients is achieved by applying my wealth of experience, taking the time to get to know my clients and their goals, and going the extra mile to get the job done. I focus my practice in Family Law (divorce, child custody, modification of existing orders, enforcement of existing orders, adoptions and defense of Attorney General cases) and Criminal Law (including juvenile matters), in every level of state court. For a complete listing of my legal services, please visit my Practice Areas Page.

I am easy to talk to and care about your problems; however, I am also an experienced and aggressive trial attorney who isn't afraid to do battle for his clients. Whether I am representing you in court or negotiating a settlement agreement, you can be confident that your case will be handled in an ethical, professional manner. In my office, you will receive the attention necessary to properly analyze and creatively assist you in reaching your legal goals. It is my policy to explain all reasonable options - I will not simply tell you what you want to hear. Based on my years of experience in family and criminal law, I will confidently counsel you on which options are available and at what cost.

My practice is driven by my values: honesty, integrity, responsibility, collegiality and a strong work ethic. At the Law Office of David E. Houston, you will never be a number and I will always have time to provide you with the respect and attention you deserve.
