Austin Hagee Law Firm is a San Antonio criminal defense firm founded in 2022 and led by attorney Austin Hagee, a former Bexar County felony and family-violence prosecutor. The firm defends individuals facing DWI and DUI charges, THC vape and other drug offenses, assault, family violence, sex crimes, intoxication assault, manslaughter, and juvenile offenses. The law firm also handles expunctions and record sealing. Austin's firsthand knowledge of how prosecutors investigate, charge, and prepare criminal cases shapes the firm's defense strategies throughout San Antonio and South Texas.
Austin Hagee Law Firm prepares every case as though it will proceed to trial, examining arrests, searches, laboratory testing, and prosecution evidence to identify weaknesses in criminal charges. The firm maintains a deliberately low caseload, allowing clients direct attorney access, personalized attention, and biweekly case updates. Its white-glove communication approach keeps clients informed throughout their defense. Flexible in-house payment plans, low initial payments, and written flat fees make legal representation more accessible. The firm also offers free, confidential initial consultations and accepts new client inquiries 24/7.
Austin Hagee Law Firm has secured more than 350 case dismissals through its founder's work as lead counsel, alongside not-guilty verdicts and charges withdrawn before trial. Notable results include the dismissal of an aggravated assault with a deadly weapon charge in October 2026 and an invasive visual recording charge in September 2026. The firm has also preserved clients' driving privileges in administrative license revocation hearings and secured the withdrawal of a felony motion to adjudicate. Austin previously obtained a not-guilty verdict in a 2022 assault trial and secured a DWI dismissal after successfully challenging evidence during trial.
Austin Hagee Law Firm is led by an attorney selected to the Texas Super Lawyers Rising Stars list from 2023 through 2026.
