The New York Times

“A defense lawyer, Jodi Callaway Cole, saw the movie and asked Mr. Linklater for the trial transcripts. She had a hunch there was more to the story, and like the filmmaker, she thought a life sentence seemed too harsh. “Jodi’s the hero,” Mr. Linklater said.” - NYT

“Bernie Tiede won't face charge that he stole millions from East Texas widow he killed.” - The Dallas Morning News

We bring curiosity, experience, persistence, intuition, and an eagle eye to every legal challenge

 

Law Office
