Poverty and Crime | Harris County Criminal Lawyer James Sullivan

Houston criminal lawyers James Sullivan and Associates understand the strong correlation between poverty and crime. Many people become poor through no fault of their own. Companies transfer their jobs overseas and they join the swelling ranks of the unemployed. Once feeling like they could keep their heads above water, now they have no where to live. Their homes fall into foreclosure and their dreams and aspirations for themselves and their children vanish before their eyes. The safety net of unemployment benefits runs out and they grow desperate. There are many reasons people become poor. Attorney James Sullivan has represented and fought for the legal rights of countless poor clients for many years.  He willingly accepted court appointments and fought for his appointed clients just as hard as he did for his retained clients. In 2011, due to increasing overhead costs, Sullivan stopped accepting court-appointed cases, however he still offers to reduce his legal fees on deserving cases although he is not a pro bono attorney.
