Waco Criminal Defense Attorneys
Representing Clients Throughout Central Texas
Getting arrested in Texas is a traumatic and devastating experience. Not only does a misdemeanor or felony conviction result in harsh penalties such as time spent behind bars and expensive fines, but also a permanent criminal record that can have a negative impact on your life and reputation. One of the most important steps to take immediately after arrest is hiring a lawyer to create a strong defense strategy on your behalf to obtain the best possible outcome.
At Milam & Fanning, PLLC, we are committed to protecting your rights, reputation, and future throughout the legal process. Our Waco criminal defense attorneys have more than three decades of collective experience helping our clients either get their case dismissed or obtain a lighter sentence to avoid jail or prison time.
Our legal team can review your case, determine your available legal options, and guide you through the complexities of the legal process. If we are not able to obtain a "not guilty" verdict or get your case dismissed, we can help you avoid harsh sentences—especially if it is your first offense. We also represent throughout Comal County, Hays County, Guadalupe County, and beyond.

If you are looking for amazing representation, stop now. Everyone at this firm including the office staff is amazing! I have hired David twice, one divorce case and one civil. I was treated with the same kindness and compassion both times. I always felt understood and was never treated like just another dollar sign. He is extremely knowledgeable, responsive, and the perfect combination of easy to talk to meets highly professional. Jason Milam even took the time to step in and give his advice on something, although brief, it was greatly appreciated. He definitely didn't have to do that. There isn't another firm I would trust to handle a case for me!- Casey E.

I am so glad that I found Milam & Fanning to help with my case! They are very professional and informative but also very welcoming. Whether I needed something explained or had questions, Bobbi Hubbard and Jennings Kennady were always so quick to respond and ready to help. The whole team made the experience easy, and I am so pleased with the outcome of my case. I would highly recommend hiring Milam & Fanning for your needs!- Zabrina D.

I have used this law firm twice now, I used David for my divorce and he was great! It was affordable and he got everything taken care of that I needed. Recently used Jason to handle a citation I recieved and he was able to work with the city attorney and get my charge dismissed. We have also used Jason to take care of a court case for my son. They are great lawyers and keep you informed. Laura always emailed with updates and I was happy that I could reach Jason on his cell phone anytime I had a question. Overall great experience!- Megan N.

I cannot thank David Fanning enough for what he was able to accomplish in just a matter of 2 days. I am from out of state and found him online. My granddaughter had been taken into the State's custody and I believed that she needed to be with family. This could have taken several months to come to fruition, but he made it happen during the first court appearance, just 2 days after I secured him as my attorney. He actually drew up new orders, on a legal pad, just before we appeared before the judge. She is now in my custody and will probably be with me for the rest of her life. I will forever be grateful to him for helping me save my granddaughter from the system.- Misti F.

I was in search of divorce lawyers in Waco and found that Milam & Fanning had great reviews and I have read every review before deciding to go with them. Jennings Kennady, Jason Milam and Boobi Hubbard were great to work with. I was not disappointed with how they have taken care of my case. I definitely recommend them if any of you are looking for a lawyer that will take care of your case. I will be returning if I ever need any other legal help in the future.- David

Jason was by far one of the best lawyers I ever had. Even his assistant she was also great. If he’s ever busy she will help you and go above and beyond for you. I had a different lawyer before Jason and they were offering me jail time . Jason came on my case and when I say he went above and beyond for me even reached out to me to talk to me besides only court to see if everything was actuate. He actually cares about his clients. Jason got the judge to go from offering jail time to getting my whole case dropped. This law firm was amazing. I had the best experience and the best lawyer. I highly recommend Jason .- Latrita N.
