“Former Trial Chief for Travis County. I was impressed and I am hard to please. A so-called utility worker filed a criminal charge on me, and Mr. Roark exposed him as just a tree cutter trespassing on my property. The jury was out 15 minutes and found me not guilty. If you pass this guy up for an attorney, you are making a mistake. I had a lot to lose. He stopped the prosecution in their tracks.” - Anonymous
