Alvin is a Brazoria County community located at the intersection of Highway 35 and Highway 6, two corridors that see regular law enforcement activity and generate a steady volume of DWI arrests, drug possession cases from traffic stops, and related offenses. Criminal cases for Alvin residents are handled at the Brazoria County Courthouse in Angleton. As a former Brazoria County prosecutor, David Smith has practiced in this courthouse for years and understands how the Brazoria County District Attorney’s office evaluates cases from the Alvin area specifically.
David Smith is Board Certified in Criminal Law by the Texas Board of Legal Specialization and a former Brazoria County prosecutor. He defends Alvin clients in Brazoria County courts with the same preparation and board certified expertise he bring to every case he handles. Alvin’s location at a major highway intersection means traffic stop cases are particularly common, and the quality of the traffic stop itself, including the officer’s basis for the stop and how the investigation proceeded after it, is frequently the most important issue in these cases.
