Round Rock Criminal Cases — Which Court Handles Your Case

Round Rock is in Williamson County. Criminal cases from Round Rock are heard in the Williamson County courts in Georgetown, not in Travis County.

Misdemeanor cases — Class A and Class B misdemeanors — are heard in the Williamson County Courts at Law. There are three: County Court at Law #1, #2, and #3. DWI, assault, drug possession misdemeanors, domestic violence, theft, and driving offenses all flow through these courts.

Felony cases are heard in the district courts — the 277th District Court and the 368th District Court in Georgetown. Drug possession felonies, aggravated assault, burglary, and all other felony charges go through these courts.

Round Rock Municipal Court handles Class C misdemeanors — traffic tickets, minor in possession, disorderly conduct, and other fine-only offenses. These cases stay in Round Rock rather than going to Georgetown.

If you are not sure which court your case is in, tell us the charge when you call and we will tell you exactly where your case will be heard.

What Most People Do Not Know About Williamson County Courts

Williamson County has a reputation in Austin legal circles for being tougher than Travis County. That reputation is partly accurate and partly overstated.

What is true: Williamson County serves a more conservative community and prosecutors take their charging decisions seriously. They assess whether their burden can actually be met before pushing a case forward.

What that means for your defense: a well-prepared legal argument gets a real hearing in Williamson County courts. A lawyer who knows the prosecutors, knows the judges, and knows how these specific courts operate has a genuine advantage over one who shows up twice a year.

Taylor Kacir served as a Senior Misdemeanor County Attorney at the Bell County Attorney’s Office before joining this firm. She knows how the other side builds a case, what they look for, and where the weaknesses are. That background is not a liability in criminal defense. It is an advantage.

Criminal Charges We Defend in Round Rock

DWI and DUI in Round Rock

DWI is one of the most common charges in Williamson County courts. First offense through felony DWI. BAC challenges, unlawful stop arguments, blood draw procedures, field sobriety test administration — every step of a DWI investigation has legal requirements that officers do not always follow.

If your DWI case is in Williamson County, you need an attorney who has appeared before these specific judges on these specific charges. Taylor Kacir handles DWI cases in Williamson County courts regularly from the Georgetown office.

The 15-day ALR deadline runs from the date of your arrest. If you were arrested for DWI in Round Rock, call us today — not next week.

Drug Possession and Delivery in Round Rock

Drug possession charges in Round Rock follow the same Texas penalty group structure as anywhere else — but the suppression arguments that get cases dismissed are the same in Williamson County as they are in Travis County. Unlawful stops, prolonged detentions, and searches without probable cause happen in Round Rock just as they do in Austin.

Four misdemeanor charges in Williamson County were dismissed when the alleged conduct was found to have occurred just outside the court’s jurisdiction. Attention to detail changes outcomes. A motion to suppress can be equally effective here.

Assault and Family Violence in Round Rock

Assault causing bodily injury, aggravated assault, and assault family violence. These charges carry consequences beyond the criminal case — protective orders, firearms rights, child custody implications. Williamson County prosecutors handle assault and family violence cases aggressively. Early involvement by an experienced defense attorney changes what is available as a resolution.

Theft and Property Crimes in Round Rock

Theft by check, theft of property, burglary of a habitation, burglary of a vehicle. Williamson County is one of the fastest-growing counties in Texas — property crime cases move through these courts at volume. Prosecutors know the cases and pursue them seriously.

Felony Charges in Round Rock

Felony cases from Round Rock are heard in the 277th and 368th District Courts in Georgetown. A felony conviction in Williamson County carries the same lifetime consequences as anywhere else in Texas — prison time, permanent record, loss of rights. These cases require attorneys who have been in these specific courtrooms on these specific charge types.

Protective Order Violations in Round Rock

Violations of protective orders are taken seriously by Williamson County prosecutors. These cases move fast. If you have been charged with violating a protective order, call us today. A bond reduction may be available if bond has been set.

Probation Violations in Round Rock

Motions to revoke probation and motions to adjudicate guilt in Williamson County courts. Procedural deadlines matter — a second-degree felony probation was saved when the State failed to indict a new case within the statutory timeframe. Knowing the rules is part of the defense.

Why the Georgetown Office Matters for Round Rock Clients

Georgetown is 13 miles from Round Rock. Our Georgetown office at 706 Rock St is the Williamson County courthouse’s backyard.

When you have a bond hearing, arraignment, or status hearing in Georgetown, Taylor Kacir does not need to drive from Austin. She is already there.
