Grand Juries

Knowledgeable Grand Jury Attorneys

Under both Texas and federal law, a grand jury of regular citizens is the only body that can issue a felony criminal indictment. If the government is preparing to accuse you or your associates of a felony crime, the steps you take during the grand jury proceedings are extremely important.

If you believe you are the target of a grand jury investigation, or you have been subpoenaed to testify before a grand jury, you should retain legal counsel right away. At Goldstein, Goldstein & Hilley, based in San Antonio, we have extensive experience representing Texas and federal grand jury witnesses, subjects and targets. Contact us for a free initial phone consultation to learn how we can help you.

Exploring All of Your Options

Receiving a grand jury subpoena puts you in a very delicate position. You, your associates or your company may be the target of an investigation, and evidence gathered during grand jury proceedings may motivate prosecutors to name more targets.

If you wish to avoid testifying in a grand jury investigation, we can take steps to avoid contempt charges such as seeking interlocutory relief from the courts. If you are willing to testify, we will represent you before the grand jury and protect your rights, including your rights against self-incrimination.
