Bar Number: 22175

All State and Federal Courts in Oklahoma.

Oklahoma Bar Association Criminal Law Section, Tulsa County Bar Association, American Bar Association, Hudson-Hall-Wheaton American Inns of Court, and Oklahoma Criminal Defense Lawyer's Association.

I attend continuing legal education seminars on the topic of criminal defense. In addition, I stay informed about new developments and new trends in the law by reading and reviewing new state and federal criminal law decisions.

I wrote an article entitled "Inoculated Against Recovery: A Comparative Analysis of Vaccine Injury Compensation in the United States and Great Britain" (15 Tulsa J. Comp. & Int'l L. 61), that was published in the Tulsa Journal of Comparative and International Law at the University of Tulsa College of Law.

I represented a client who was caught on police video soliciting an act of prostitution. The client had a family and for obvious reasons, did not want a jury trial. The prosecutor in this matter customarily refused to recommend deferred sentences for people charged with sex crimes. Not only was I able to keep my client out of jail, I was able to convince the prosecutor to give my client a deferred sentence, thereby preventing him from actually being convicted of the crime and making him eligible for an expungement that allowed his record to be sealed from public view and the charge does not appear in a criminal background check.

I represented a client who was facing up to fifteen years in prison for three different felonies: embezzlement, being a fugitive from justice, and obtaining merchandise by bogus check. I was able to get the fugitive from justice and obtaining merchandise by bogus check charges dismissed. I was able to negotiate a no-contest plea and a deferred sentence on the embezzlement charge that kept my client out of prison. I was also able to negotiate a $20,000 reduction in the amount of restitution that was to be paid.

I represented a client who was charged with first degree burglary of an occupied residence. The client had previous felony convictions for first degree burglary and possession of methamphetamine, which meant he was facing a minimum of fourteen years in prison as a repeat offender. I was able to negotiate a suspended sentence that kept my client out of prison and allowed him to move back to his home state.

The Henson Law Firm was established in 2009 and provides aggressive, effective, and professional criminal defense representation to every one of its clients. The firm is dedicated to achieving the best possible result in every case because we are committed to YOU and we will give YOUR case the individual attention it requires. We generally do not have more than 10 to 15 clients at one time. This allows us to devote our time and attention to your case. We believe that by limiting the number of clients that we accept, we are able to provide you with better representation and give you the higher, more personalized level of service that you DESERVE, than if we had a high-volume practice with 50 or more clients at one time.

Prior to becoming an attorney, I was in the wholesale petroleum marketing business for five years and the embroidery and screen printing business for five years. Before establishing the Henson Law Firm, I worked as an intern in the legal department at the Williams Companies, Inc. I served as a judicial intern for the Honorable Dana L. Kuehn, one of the criminal law judges in Tulsa County. I also worked as a law clerk and later as an associate attorney at the law firm of Lyons & Clark.
