Since I love Sam like a brother, I guess my vote shouldn’t count, but I will vote nonetheless. Sam Bassett is among the top five criminal defense lawyers in the state of Texas. Smart as hell, crazy experience, works like a mule and loves to go to trial. He can take an expert from the other side – cold – with no notes – and make that expert forget who’s paying him. He fights like hell for this clients and yet maintains civility with opposing counsel in order not to preclude the possibility of a favorable settlement. Everyone likes and respects Sam (everyone – bar none). Sam is a good man, fair man, great dad, great partner and first rate advocate.
