PAROLE LAWYERS IN KERRVILLE, TEXAS

Why Parole Representation Matters

Parole is not automatic in Texas. Even if you meet the eligibility requirements, the Texas Board of Pardons and Paroles has broad discretion to approve or deny your release. Without an experienced advocate, you risk staying incarcerated longer than necessary. Danford Law Firm is the most experienced parole law firm in the region. A skilled Texas parole lawyer can prepare a persuasive case, protect your rights, and give you the best possible chance at early release.

Understanding Parole in Texas

Parole is the conditional release of an inmate before their full sentence is served. In Texas, the Board considers:

• Nature and severity of the offense

• Institutional behavior and disciplinary record

• Educational or rehabilitation program completion

• Risk assessment scores

• Victim impact statements

• Strength of reentry plan

Parole does not erase a conviction — it lets you complete your sentence under community supervision.
