Montgomery County Criminal Defense Lawyer
If Montgomery County filed the charge, the case is heard at the Montgomery County Courthouse in Conroe. That is true for an arrest in The Woodlands, Spring, Magnolia, or Willis. The city on the mailbox does not pick the judge. Sam R. Cammack III has been licensed in Texas since 2002. Holly answers. Sam tries the case.

Short answer: where is a Montgomery County criminal case heard?
If Montgomery County filed the charge, you go to the Montgomery County Courthouse in Conroe. The Woodlands, Spring, Magnolia, and Willis searches still land here when Montgomery County is the filing county.
Who we are: Sam R. Cammack III is lead trial counsel, licensed in Texas on December 5, 2002 (Bar No. 24014415). Holly A. Quinterro schedules Montgomery settings and talks to families in English and Spanish. The office is at 1001 West Loop South, Suite 700. Firm Google reviews (4.9 across 117) sit on the homepage. They are firm reviews, not Montgomery-only reviews.
The courthouse is in Conroe. The case is in Montgomery County.
Conroe is the county seat. Felony and misdemeanor criminal settings for Montgomery County run there, not at a Woodlands annex and not at 1201 Franklin in Houston. I-45 and the Hardy Toll Road are how a lot of those families reach Conroe. The Woodlands sits south of the seat. The courthouse does not move south to match the search volume.
Criminal settings run on the Conroe courthouse campus, including 301 North Main Street and 207 West Phillips Street. Open maps for directions to the Montgomery County Courthouse. Confirm the court number on the paper before you drive. Buildings differ.

Criminal defense in Conroe, The Woodlands, Spring, and Magnolia
An arrest in one of these cities is still a Montgomery County case when Montgomery County files it. The courthouse does not move to The Woodlands.
Conroe
Conroe is the seat. A Conroe criminal defense lawyer search is looking for the courthouse town. If Montgomery County filed the case, Conroe is where you appear, whether you live on the square or twenty miles south.
The Woodlands
The Woodlands is a census-designated place, mostly in Montgomery County, with a Harris edge. Families type Woodlands criminal attorney. If Montgomery filed the charge, the setting is Conroe. If Harris filed it, read the Harris County page and 1201 Franklin.
Spring
Spring sits on the Harris and Montgomery line. A Spring DWI lawyer search is not enough information. Montgomery filings go to Conroe. Harris filings go to Houston. Bring the paper, not the ZIP code.
Magnolia
Magnolia is west Montgomery County. There is no Magnolia criminal district courthouse. A Magnolia theft or assault case filed by Montgomery County is a Conroe setting.
Willis, New Caney, and Porter
Willis is north of Conroe on I-45. New Caney and Porter sit east, toward the Harris line. Same pattern: the search names the town, the filing names the court. Montgomery filings still go to Conroe.
Also named here because people search them: Montgomery, Oak Ridge North, Shenandoah, Splendora, and Cut and Shoot. Tomball splits Harris and Montgomery the same way Spring does.
Charges we defend in Montgomery County
Charge pages explain Texas law. This page is the Montgomery County court. Read both. The criminal order is murder and assault, family violence, DWI, narcotics, then robbery and theft.

Houston family violence lawyerDWI and DUI

Houston drug possession lawyerRobbery and theft
Robbery, burglary, and theft at misdemeanor and felony levels, heard in the Montgomery County courts that filed them.
Houston theft lawyerAlso handled
Personal injury is supporting work, often referred, not the Montgomery criminal docket. Personal injury. See every charge on the practice areas index.
If your city sits on a county line
Montgomery's south edge is the Harris line. That is where the wrong courthouse happens.
- Spring and Tomball: Montgomery and Harris.
- The Woodlands: mostly Montgomery, Harris remainder.
- Houston addresses can spill into Montgomery. The stamp on the complaint still controls.
If the paper says Montgomery County, start here. If it says Harris County, use the Harris page. Send the cause number if it is not obvious.
Sam, Holly, and the Houston office
County pages have to name the court. They also have to name the people. These two URLs are the identity pages this silo should point at.
