How Is Working With Jay Different from Working With Another Criminal Defense Lawyer in Missouri City?
We understand that you have many options when it comes to finding legal representation in Missouri City, Texas. Why should you entrust your case to Blass Law? There are a number of reasons, including:
Our Criminal Defense Lawyer’s Scientific Experience
Say that you have been accused of driving while intoxicated (DWI). Jay Cohen has:
- An ACS-CHAL Forensic Lawyer-Scientist certification for both alcohol and drugs
- A forensic chromatography certification for both alcohol and drugs
- Drug Recognition Expert training
In other words, our firm has a thorough understanding of how breathalyzers work, how they can be administered or interpreted incorrectly, and how to fight charges based on these test results.
Our Willingness to Fight Tooth and Nail for Our Criminal Defense Clients
We recognize that it is your future on the line. We also know that you are an intelligent individual who likely understands what the consequences of a criminal conviction could be. Blass Law can work with you by:
- Explaining any concepts or options that you were not aware of or need help understanding
- Giving you the tools you need to make the right decisions regarding your case
- Contacting you with regular updates about how your case is going, what we are doing to protect you, and what we need, if anything, from you
- Determining what strategy might be best for you (e.g., pursuing a dismissal versus a charge reduction)
- Fight until the very end for the best outcome
Our Record of Previous Criminal Case Wins
It is important to emphasize that no case is typical and that past successes do not predict future results. That said, our case results do show that Blass Law knows how to champion our clients’ rights and push hard for the outcome you want—and win.
A Criminal Conviction Will Affect Every Aspect of Your Life
As you are aware, just being arrested for a crime can have a major impact on your life. If you are convicted, the consequences will only get worse. That is why we encourage you to talk to our firm as soon as you can. We want as much time as possible to devise a legal strategy that may help you avoid:
The Legal Penalties of the Crime You Are Charged With
Depending on the specific charges you face, a conviction could mean you face penalties like the following:
- Up to three months in jail and/or a $2,000 fine (for a Class B misdemeanor)
- Up to two years in jail and a $10,000 fine (for a state jail felony)
- Potential for life imprisonment and a $10,000 fine (for a first degree felony)
The Loss of Your Career Due to Criminal Charges
Employers often discriminate against those with criminal records. A conviction could mean:
- You lose the job you currently have
- You have to spend months or years behind bars, which would interrupt your career, education, and/or vocational training
- You have more trouble finding work in the future
You might also lose any certifications or licenses you have, depending on the industry you work in.
Disruption or Ending of Relationships With Your Family and Friends in Missouri City
Not only can the penalties of a criminal conviction wreak havoc on your professional life, the charges themselves can place a wedge between you and those you love.

What Criminal Charges does Blass Law Defend Clients Against?
We are willing and able to defend clients who have been charged with a wide range of crimes, including but not limited to:
- DWI: If you are charged with a DWI—that is, operating a vehicle with a BAC over 0.08—limit what you say to the authorities until after we get there. We also represent clients accused of boating while intoxicated (BWI).
- Probation violation charges: Probation is often used as an alternative to more stringent penalties, but it comes with its own set of rules and restrictions. Being charged with a violation of those rules could mean that you face prison time and fines for your original offense and the new offense that violated your probation.
- Drug charges: This could include things like possession or distribution. The penalties you face depend on both the exact nature of the crime and the type and amount of drugs that are allegedly involved.
- Weapons charges: Possessing a gun while drunk or after being convicted of a felony are both against the law in Texas.
- Sex crimes: A charge of statutory rape, sexual assault or abuse, or solicitation of a minor could land you behind bars for years or even decades.
- Prostitution charges: Sex work is illegal, regardless of whether the person engaged in the work is doing so of their own volition. We can defend you against prostitution and solicitation charges.
