Founding attorney Dan Cogdell has more than 40 years of experience as a winning defense attorney. He is known in Texas and nationwide for winning high-profile cases against the odds.

Among his most publicized cases is the Enron corporate corruption case. Our client was the sole person acquitted in any Enron-related trial.

A Legacy Of Success In The Courtroom
Our attorneys’ track record tells the story of their commitment and winning strategies. Read more about our trial experience and results.
In a high-profile legal saga, our client, an orthopedic surgeon, was acquitted of all changes leveled against them, which included wire fraud, health care fraud and insurance fraud.
Physician victory
In an exceptionally challenging legal battle, an alternative treatment physician found themselves acquitted of multiple charges. Despite the arduous journey, the remaining charges against the physician were ultimately dismissed by the government following two separate trials.
Pharmacy fraud mistrial
A pharmacy owner was charged with wire fraud and mail fraud. The trial judge granted the court’s own mistrial motion based on the prosecutorial misconduct following six weeks of trial. The matter is still currently pending.
Psychiatric fraud victory
Dubbed the “Spring Shadows Glenn Psychiatric Fraud Trial,” this case involved our client finding themselves embroiled in a high-profile prosecution. Despite them enduring an exhaustive six-month trial, our client’s case was ultimately dismissed with the individual acquitted of all charges.
Defending The Rights And Livelihoods Of Health Care Professionals
Both federal and state governments aggressively pursue health care fraud cases, as do health insurance companies. The potential consequences of an accusation of health care fraud can be severe, and being found guilty can be life-altering. If you have been charged with health care fraud, or if you suspect that you may be under investigation, then you need to consult with a defense lawyer immediately.
Our team has the knowledge and commitment to understand and defend against complex criminal cases. Our attorneys’ experience often enables them to anticipate how the prosecution will act and prepare strategies to counteract their cases. Our lawyers are not intimidated by the government or other attorneys – they have fought and won in this arena for decades. Thanks to our team’s track record and reputation for winning, prosecutors are often open to negotiation.
