Answers to Common Questions About Your Defense
If you've been charged with a crime in Tarrant County, you probably have a lot of questions. Peter Gieseking has answered the most common ones below — but every case is different. Reach out directly and get answers specific to your situation.
-
Stay calm and do not speak to law enforcement without an attorney present. Anything you say — even if it seems harmless — can and will be used against you. Invoke your right to remain silent, ask for an attorney, and contact Gieseking Law as soon as possible. The earlier we get involved, the more options we have. Give us a call at (817) 223-3455.
-
Yes. Your first consultation is free. We'll talk through the charges, what you're facing, and what a defense strategy might look like — with no obligation. You deserve straight answers before you make any decisions.
-
Gieseking Law handles a wide range of criminal defense cases including assault, drug possession, theft, domestic violence, DWI, juvenile crimes, weapon offenses, burglary, arson, sex crimes, and murder and capital murder. If you're facing criminal charges in Tarrant County, call and we'll tell you how we can help.
-
When you contact Gieseking Law, you're reaching Peter — not a receptionist or paralegal. Criminal charges move fast, and so do we. Reach out by phone or contact form and we'll get you in for a consultation as quickly as possible.
-
Board certification in criminal law is awarded by the Texas Board of Legal Specialization and is held by fewer than 2% of Texas attorneys. It requires a demonstrated record of substantial courtroom experience, peer reviews, and a rigorous written exam. It means Peter hasn't just practiced criminal law — he's proven it at the highest level the state recognizes.
-
That depends entirely on the facts of your case. Many cases are resolved through negotiation — but the key is that Peter prepares every case as if it's going to trial from day one. That preparation is what gives you real leverage. Prosecutors know Peter tries cases. That changes how they negotiate.
-
Gieseking Law primarily serves clients in Tarrant County, including Fort Worth and surrounding communities. Contact us directly if you have questions about your specific jurisdiction, and we'll let you know how we can help.

You'll never be left wondering where your case stands. Peter responds to calls and emails personally and will keep you updated at every stage of the process — court dates, developments, strategy shifts, all of it. You hired an attorney, not an answering service.
-
As much as you can gather: the nature of the charges, the date and location of the arrest, any paperwork or documents you've received, and the names of any officers or agencies involved. Don't worry if you don't have everything — we can work with what you have and fill in the gaps.
