...replace Belli and conduct the appeal, the family chose Houston's Percy Foreman, president of the National Association of Defense Lawyers, and one of the top criminal lawyers in Texas. Like Belli, Foreman charges high fees. A prosperous Texan charged with homicide once said that he could not decide whether to call in Foreman and spend the rest of his life in the poorhouse or take his chances on a moderate sentence and keep his estate.
