Austin Criminal Lawyer

The Law Office of Matthew Shrum is a full service, Austin-based law practice with a focus on smart and aggressive civil litigation and criminal defense, especially in misdemeanor and felony cases involving DWI, DUI, and Assault charges.

Matthew earned both his bachelor's degree in Biology and his law degree from The University of Texas. As a former Travis County prosecutor, Matthew has extensive experience inside the courtroom and in the backrooms of the courthouse negotiating cases. He would be honored to put that experience to work for you.

While no lawyer can guarantee the outcome of any case - whether it be fighting for justice in a criminal case or protecting a client's interests in a civil dispute - Matthew strives to obtain the best possible results for his clients. He understands that many people have concerns about hiring an attorney, and works directly with his clients to ensure that their concerns are addressed. Matthew's goal is to provide the highest quality of assistance and communication to his clients.

To learn more about the types of services that Matthew provides, please see the Practice Areas section. If you have questions about how or whether he can help you, feel free to contact him by phone or email. If you would prefer to meet with Matthew in-person, he would be more than happy to schedule an appointment with you.

After hours and weekend appointments are available, as well as 24-hour jail release.

Matthew focuses his practice in the Justice, County and District Courts of Central Texas.
