PRIORITIES

Every Tenant Deserves a Lawyer

1. Nobody wins in eviction court. Tenants are often coming to court underprepared and underinformed of the law, while Landlords are dealing with the financial uncertainty of being behind on the rent. Increasing legal representation and expanding mediation delivers real outcomes: rent paid, possession returned, and housing stable. 

Marriage Equality is Settled, and So Is Brandon’s Support

1. Despite state level efforts to dismantle the constitutional right to marry for same-sex couples, Brandon’s court will be a refuge for couples seeking to celebrate their love. Brandon will defend the right of all consenting adults to marry in the State of Texas, regardless of race, religion or sexual orientation. 

Public Safety Shouldn’t Come with a Price Tag

1. A single unpaid ticket can destabilize working families. One unpaid ticket can block the renewal of a driver’s license, trigger a warrant, or eat into money needed for car insurance or necessary repairs. As JP, Brandon will provide defendants with real alternatives like community service, compliance over cash, and access to community resources. 

Kids Belong in School, Not in Court

1. Truancy is more often a symptom of transportation challenges, instability, and unmet financial needs at home, not poor parenting. Missed school days can mean learning loss for kids and lost funding for the districts that depend on attendance-based dollars.

2. These kinds of issues are often better served with a scalpel than a gavel. Brandon is prepared to work hand in hand with families and Denton ISD administrators to keep kids in the classroom, parents out of the courtroom, and tax dollars in our district.
