ACM LAW, Amber C. Macias

Products And Services

• Criminal Defense Attorney

  At ACM LAW, I represent clients in local, state and federal courts. I take on charges ranging from minor offenses and misdemeanors to serious felonies, seeking the best possible result whether that comes with the charges being dropped, a not-guilty verdict at trial, or a favorable plea agreement. My firm may provide counsel and representation for clients charged with: Violent crimes — I build self-defense arguments and other strong legal responses to violent crime charges such as those for murder, assault and rape. Driving offenses — If you have been charged with operating a vehicle under the influence of drugs or alcohol, driving with a suspended license or another traffic offense, I can examine the police report for potential vulnerabilities. Drug violations — My firm handles charges related to the possession, distribution and cultivation of illegal substances, and my goal is to help clients avoid harsh penalties. Sex crimes — Sentences for sexual offenses can carry lifelong consequences. I will work to ensure that your side of the story is told and that your rights are protected. Theft — During negotiations with prosecutors and in court, I respond to larceny, robbery and other theft charges. My firm is capable of defending individuals against a wide range of criminal accusations. Once I accept a case, I readily address any obstacles that arise.

• DUI/DWI

  Being convicted of operating a motor vehicle while intoxicated can have serious consequences, including loss of license, higher insurance costs, heavy fines and jail time. If you were stopped and charged with a DUI/DWI in the New Braunfels area or anywhere in Texas, I am here to help. I understand that good people can make mistakes and that breathalyzers can give false readings. At ACM LAW, I have the knowledge necessary to challenge the evidence against you, and the ability to help you pursue the best possible outcome.

• Juvenile Attorney

  We are advocates for juveniles in the justice system. The primary concern for most parents is the safety of their children. When those children face criminal charges, it's important to seek skilled legal counsel experienced in juvenile law and the juvenile court system. I draw on my extensive background to provide comprehensive representation to juveniles in cases that may involve: Underage drinking Theft crimes Drug offenses Vandalism Criminal trespass Shoplifting Assault and battery Juvenile court judges have a range of options when handling the cases that come before them. While they must balance the needs of the youthful offender with those of the public's safety, they are more likely to recommend probation and treatment programs rather than confinement to a juvenile facility, but their rulings depend upon the severity of the charge. My experience enables me to anticipate how local judges and juvenile courts will approach your child's case so I can be fully prepared to represent their rights and seek the most favorable outcome under the circumstances.

• Personal Injury

  Were you injured in an auto accident or a slip and fall? Maybe you or a loved one have experienced a traumatic brain injury or a wrongful death? Nearly 15 years of experience in the insurance industry and extensive knowledge of the legal system, I focus on getting the results you need and deserve by aiming to hold the responsible parties accountable. ACM Law is a responsive, knowledgeable law office equipped to handle your case with the attention you deserve.

• Traffic Violations

  Whether you are handed a criminal or civil charge for your alleged offense, you may face significant negative consequences if you plead guilty. Simply paying a fine rather than contesting the charge in court could come back to haunt you when your insurance bill arrives or when you get another ticket. A lawyer from ACM LAW can go to court and work to have your charges dropped or reduced to result in less serious penalties. I represent clients in Texas traffic violation cases involving: Reckless driving Speeding Expired registration Expired license Running a red light or stop sign Failure to signal when changing lanes Failure to wear a seatbelt Driving under the influence Driving without a license or with a suspended license Leaving the scene of an accident Violating license restrictions Hit-and-run accidents I have the knowledge needed to protect your best interests in traffic court. I handle moving and nonmoving violations of all kinds.
