Articles Posted in About Micah Belden – Sherman Criminal Lawyer

My name is Micah Belden and I am a criminal defense lawyer in Sherman, Texas -the city in which I was born and will be buried. I was raised and currently live in Howe, Texas. My father was a farmer and my mom a housewife. We were forced to sell the farm early in life, and I watched my dad labor hard to feed our family. I try to bring his backbreaking work ethic to the practice of criminal law.

I was taken to the Baptist church week in and week out as a kid. Sometimes I went voluntarily. I learned small town values that gave me a moralistic view of the world, and see those morals jumping into my everyday decisions at a surprising rate. I do my best to treat people fairly and demand that others are treated fairly. This led me to be a criminal defense lawyer.

After graduating from Howe, I attended Texas A&M because the school fit my view of the world and was a comfortable place to learn. I love history, and after changing majors a couple times, ended up in the history department where I belonged. I attended virtually all the football games and was somewhat active in Bonfire, and was unfortunately on campus when it fell in 1999. I worked the next day moving logs, and learned to appreciate how fragile life and all we have truly is.
