Red River Cultural District Criminal Defense Lawyer
Arrested in Downtown Austin’s Entertainment Zone? We Fight for You.
Austin’s Red River Cultural District is one of the city’s most iconic areas—home to legendary music venues, buzzing nightlife, and a nonstop downtown energy. But what starts as a night out at Mohawk, Stubb’s, or Empire Control Room can quickly turn into an arrest. Whether you’re a local, tourist, musician, or service worker, a criminal charge in this part of town can put your reputation and future at serious risk.
At the Law Office of Bryan Fagan, PLLC, we provide fast, aggressive, and discreet criminal defense for individuals facing charges in the Red River Cultural District and surrounding downtown areas.

What We Defend in the Red River District
We handle a wide range of offenses that commonly occur in this fast-paced, high-visibility part of Austin:
DWI / DUI Arrests
Charged after leaving a bar or venue on Red River St., 7th Street, or IH-35? We examine the legality of the stop, field sobriety procedures, and BAC results to challenge weak evidence and protect your license and freedom.
Public Intoxication
Public intoxication charges are common in the Red River District—especially during events like SXSW, ACL Fest, and weekend crowds. We fight for dismissals or conditional resolutions to keep your record clean.
Drug Possession
Whether you’re caught with marijuana, MDMA, prescription pills, or THC cartridges, we fight unconstitutional searches and lab report flaws to suppress evidence or secure a case dismissal.
Assault & Disorderly Conduct
Bar fights or misunderstandings outside music venues can lead to assault, resisting arrest, or disorderly conduct charges. We dig into bodycam footage, witness reports, and police conduct to protect your side of the story.
Theft & Vandalism
Property crimes—including vandalism or theft from nearby shops or food trucks—can lead to serious consequences. We negotiate to reduce or dismiss charges and avoid jail time where possible.
Juvenile Offenses
If your teen was arrested in the Red River area for alcohol, drugs, or disruptive behavior, we offer compassionate but strategic juvenile defense focused on protecting their future.
