Ryan King, Plano Criminal Attorney

Ryan King is a DFW native and is proud to call North Texas his home. Mr. King left home to play football for Yale University, but returned to Texas as soon as he could in order to begin his legal career with the Taylor County District Attorney’s Office (Abilene, TX). He quickly transferred to the Collin County District Attorney’s Office where he rose the ranks from Chief Misdemeanor Prosecutor to the Felony Trial Division based on his diligent work ethic and accomplishments in the courtroom. Along the way, Mr. King has successfully handled nearly every type of criminal case, ranging from misdemeanors like DWI, Drug Possession, Theft and Assault to high-level felonies like Intoxication Manslaughter, DWI 3rd or more, Aggravated Assault, Manufacture & Delivery of Controlled Substance, and Murder. With over a decade of experience working on both sides of law enforcement, Mr. King has seen it all and uses this insider knowledge to the advantage of his clients.

After years of running his own well-established legal defense practice, Dunham & Jones recruited Ryan King to join its Dallas and Plano based offices due to the reputation he has built in the defense community for top-notch legal representation. Prior to working for Dunham & Jones, Mr. King was elected by his peers to serve on the Board of Directors for the Collin County Criminal Defense Lawyer’s Association (“3CDLA”), a leadership position dedicated to promoting the highest quality legal representation in Collin County and ensuring the fair treatment of people facing the Criminal Justice System. Mr. King continues to serve on the Board of Directors, furthering his reputation as a dedicated defender amongst his peers and clients. With Ryan King of Dunham & Jones by your side, you can rest assured knowing you have an experienced litigator who will fight for you every step of the way.

Mr. King graduated from Yale University with a degree in political science and went on to the University of Houston Law School where he focused primarily on criminal law and honing his trial and courtroom skills. During law school, Mr. King met his wife, also a passionate and well-regarded defense attorney, and they raise their young son and daughter together in North Dallas. If Mr. King isn’t playing “superheroes” or “tea party” at a local park, you can probably find him casting a line into the nearest body of water hoping to land a 5-pound bass.
