Criminal Defense

Criminal Defense - hands behind bars

ALL FELONIES AND MISDEMEANORS, STATE & FEDERAL.
If you have been contacted by the police or charged with a crime, it can be an intimidating and frightening experience.  When dealing with a police investigation, hiring the right criminal defense lawyer can often make all the difference in the world. Whether you face criminal charges for the first time, or have had prior problems with the criminal justice system, we pride ourselves in providing our clients with solid legal representation and give them and their cases the time and attention they deserve.  It is our policy to prepare every case for trial rather than rushing to a plea bargain.  Our extensive experience, preparation, and courtroom reputation actually keep most cases from trial and generate superior results.

  • Right to a lawyer
  • Right to cross examine and confront witnesses
