Organized Crime Charges

If you are charged with engaging in organized crime in Texas, you face enhanced penalties. This means that the consequences of a conviction will be significantly higher than if you were accused of acting alone.

Organized crime is a broad category that encompasses everything from racketeering and gang activity to white collar crimes. This is a complex area of law and calls for assistance from an experienced defense lawyer.

For example, if there are a series of burglaries or thefts and the State can prove that there are several suspects who acted in conjunction with each other to steal other peoples' property then they may be able to enhance what would otherwise be a lesser charge.  Say 5 young men went out and stole property that collectively was worth less than $1,500: Tthe offense would be a Class A misdeamor of "Theft >$500 <$1,500".  However, if those 5 young men were working in conjunction with each other to steal the property and sell it to someone else for a profit, then they could each be indicted for a State Jail Felony of Engaging in Organized Crime.

Just a brief note to tell you how appreciative I am of how effective you were in my Bankruptcy Proceedings. I was never worried because I knew I was being represented by the best. Thank you!

I was faced with a first degree felony, which meant 5-99 years behind bars. It was terrifying. You are not only a great attorney but a very honest man with integrity...you saved my life.

From the first moment I met Mr. Pelley, he made me feel at ease. I was always updated, whether via mail or phone call of court dates and information concerning my case. He did a remarkable job and went above and beyond all my expectations. I wouldn't have to think twice about recommending Mr. Pelley to represent any of my family members or closest friends.
