El Paso Criminal Defense Firm
Defending the Accused Throughout El Paso County & the States of Texas & New Mexico
Being charged with a crime in Texas is a serious matter, and a conviction can have lasting consequences, including losing your freedom. Many of the repercussions of a criminal conviction extend beyond jail or prison time.
These “collateral” consequences stem from your criminal record and are accessible to anyone conducting a routine background check. This means opportunities such as employment, occupational licensing, housing, voting, and education can be jeopardized. Experienced legal representation is crucial since there is so much to lose.
Benjamin Law Firm represents clients in state and federal criminal investigations, arrests, and charges. Based in El Paso, we serve clients across Texas and New Mexico. Founding Attorney Brock Benjamin has been licensed to practice in Texas since 2006. Moreover, he is Board Certified in Criminal Law by the Texas Board of Legal Specialization.
This certification is a testament to Brock’s substantial criminal law experience and competence in trying criminal cases. Additionally, as a former prosecutor, he has first-hand knowledge of the government’s tactics to gain convictions, which gives our firm a distinct advantage in crafting effective defense strategies.

Effective Criminal Defense Strategies in El Paso
At Benjamin Law Firm, we know a successful criminal defense strategy hinges on thorough investigation, evidence collection, analysis, and preparation. We adopt a meticulous approach to understand the full scope of each case to provide a defense that is as detailed and comprehensive as possible with the support of a seasoned criminal lawyer.
These defenses that our criminal lawyers utilize can include:
- Challenging the evidence
- Raising reasonable doubt
- Affirmative defenses (such as entrapment, self-defense, or insanity)
- Negotiating plea bargains
- Challenging the charges altogether
- Raising constitutional issues
We start from the ground up. We investigate from every angle by finding and interviewing witnesses, including arresting officers, increasing the accuracy of our defense narrative. From the moment we begin working on your charge, we will consider all possibilities and create working strategies to develop the best approach. For example, we have experience challenging wiretaps and other forms of police asset forfeiture in federal court in El Paso and Las Cruces, New Mexico.
At trial, we show up prepared and ready to challenge the prosecution. Our objective is a case dismissal or an acquittal at trial. However, we are candid about the prospects of charges so that we can advise you on expectations and options. Depending on the circumstances, we may be able to negotiate a plea bargain for reduced charges or sentencing.
