Protecting your freedom, your future, your family.

Criminal Defense & License Defense

Been arrested or charged with a crime? Facing fines, jail, or prison?

Worried you might lose your job or your license when the case is over?

Is a licensing board threating fines or trying to restrict or take your license away?

Worried that old or new criminal history is going to wreck your professional dreams?

If you answered yes to any of these questions, I can help you.

I’m Trevor Theilen. I fight criminal cases in North Texas. I also protect jobs and professional licenses across the entire state of Texas. If you are worried about criminal charges, jail time, administrative fines, or professional license probation/suspension/revocation, call me right now.

I practice:

  • Criminal Law (fighting jail time and to keep your record clean). I focus my criminal practice in North Texas counties (Collin, Dallas, Denton, Rockwall, Tarrant, Kaufman, & Hunt).

  • License Law or Administrative Law (protecting your professional license in court, fighting any fines or embarrassment from licensing boards, advising on the professional risks of a criminal plea bargain or conviction). I handle administrative license cases anywhere in Texas.

Initial consultations are always free. We can talk and text about your case or meet remotely. To meet in-person at my office in Downtown McKinney, make an appointment. To get started, call me at (972) 528-0153 or send me an email.

When you are facing any criminal or administrative case, I know what you can expect. I spent 14 years handling these cases from the other side, first as a criminal prosecutor and then as a statewide license prosecutor. For over 6 years, I focused on the crossover point for criminal history and professional licenses in Texas. Let my experience protect your freedom to work and your paycheck.

Don’t take a plea bargain without exploring all your options for fighting the case or reducing the sentence. Don’t assume that a deferred adjudication or probation won’t wreck your career years down the line. Don’t risk the license that keeps your family fed.

I can help you make informed choices and look for other options. I can help you fight for lower sentences or penalties. I can be your voice to a jury, a judge, or a licensing board.

Call me now so I can get started.

Practice Areas


Felony or misdemeanor. Fighting bond restrictions or probation revocation. Cleaning up your record with expunctions or orders of nondisclosure. If you need any type of criminal defense in North Texas, Trevor does it. Trevor loves jury trials and winning. Consult his experience before taking a plea.

For so many Texans, a professional license is their core tool for feeding their families and building a future. Trevor fights for licensees facing revocation, suspension, probation, or administrative fines related to their work or stemming from a criminal case. Before you plea to a criminal case, Trevor can advise and strategize with you (and your criminal attorney, if you have one) about the best way to protect your license. If the state does come after your license or try to fine you, Trevor has more than a decade of experience in Texas licensing regulation and the administrative hearings and presentations that drive those decisions.
