    Top Notch Lawyer
    Derek is amazing. My son actually found him by searching Google. My son had called a few other lawyers, with no one seeming interested in taking his call. My son called Derek one time, and he answered the phone himself! Derek was out of town at the time, but he scheduled a meeting with my son immediately! Top notch lawyer, and I believe the best in San Antonio!

    I couldn't have found anyone any better.
    I would like to say, I was referred to Emmons Law Firm from a family friend. Mr. Emmons took my case on for a family violence case. He was helpful from the very beginning before I hired him; he was honest and gave me plenty of options to think about. I just want to say I'm more than pleased with how my case turned out. I honestly feel Mr. Derek Emmons is a good family man and someone I'm very grateful for having on my side.

    Mr. Emmons is hands down, without a doubt, the best I have come across.
    Being someone who has unfortunately been in and out of the system for the past 15 years, I have had my fair share of attorneys, both good and bad. Mr. Emmons is hands down, without a doubt, the best I have come across. Not only did he get me the best possible outcome I could've imagined, but he was also straightforward, honest, and very respectful to me and my family. He returned every phone call and did so promptly, and when it came time to go to court, he was there step for step. Words cannot express how thankful I am to have had him on my side. Thank you.

I highly recommend him as an attorney anytime as he is really compassionate and caring for your well-being.

    Fabian Perez
    Derek Emmons is a great attorney!
    Derek Emmons is a great attorney! I hired him to help a friend of mine with a sensitive felony case. He was brutally honest about all possible outcomes so my friend was fully aware of possible charges and sentencing guidelines, etc. My friend agreed to put his life in Derek’s hands and Derek successfully worked through the details of the case, resulting in the charges being dropped! He kept us informed of everything as he was working the case and was quick to reach out as soon as it was wrapped up. I highly recommend him for anyone looking for a great attorney who has worked both the prosecution side of the house and defense side in order to better understand the legal system and processes required to navigate the challenges while working tirelessly on your behalf! He truly cares about his clients and seeing to the best possible outcome!
    Tom Nagley

    Want the best, well he’s the best to have. Knows his job really well by getting you the admirable settlement, very understanding and overall a genuine person inside and out.
    Jose G Del Bosque IV
    AN ABSOLUTE GODSEND!
    AN ABSOLUTE GODSEND! My husband was accused of a very serious crime by his sister and niece about 5 years ago. After being pulled over in his home state of Utah, he was informed of these charges and was transferred to Texas and incarcerated for almost a year without any bond or seeing a judge. After finally seeing a judge, informed her of the details, and she immediately said she was going to assign him a good attorney that would help him. THANK GOD SHE DID... he was finally offered a bond and was able to get out. Unlike the other attorneys, he did not try to convince him to take a plea deal and actually advised him he shouldn't. Mr. Emmons always kept us informed, fought endlessly with the DAs, and continued to support my husband and his innocence. Even though my husband does not have the best record, he listened to him and supported him in every way possible. After all the years of stress and court appearances, he was able to get the case dismissed and could not wait to tell us face to face, which meant the world. I could go on and on about the endless blessings this man has done for us, but there is not enough room to do so. I will always refer everyone to him and will continue to keep him as our attorney, although hopefully we will not need to. THANK YOU, MR. EMMONS, FOR ALL YOU DO FOR EVERYONE AS TOLD BY THE ENDLESS REVIEWS. YOU ARE A BLESSING!
    veronica cubas
    Got a dismissal which we thought was impossible
    Mr. Emmons is by far the best at what he does, got a dismissal which we thought was impossible due to our unique circumstances, but he did it! Always kept us up to date on what may or may not happen and could contact with ease if there were any concerns, so if you need an attorney I definitely recommend Mr. Emmons!
    M Esquivel
    He fought for me to get my case dismissed.
    About 2 years ago, I was falsely accused of a crime, 'interfering with an emergency phone call.' It is a Class A misdemeanor and may not seem like a big deal to a lot of people, but it is definitely a mark on my clean record. While I had all odds stacked against me, I turned to Mr. Emmons and he fought for me to get my case dismissed. I will recommend him to anyone that needs help with a case, big or small, and have confidence in giving out the name Derek Emmons.
    Felix Gonzales
