Legal Professionals Providing a Strong Criminal Defense
There is no such thing as a minor criminal conviction. A finding or pleading of guilt in any criminal matter can dramatically affect the rest of your life. In addition to the penalties associated with a conviction, including fines, probation, and prison sentences, you could also face serious difficulties getting a job, finding affordable housing, or enrolling in educational programs. When you contact our firm, we will immediately begin protecting your rights and investigating all of the relevant details of your case. Our attorneys have experience with a wide variety of criminal charges, including:
- Driving under the influence (DUI) of alcohol or drugs;
- Theft, shoplifting, and other property crimes;
- Drug-related charges, including possession and intent to distribute;
- Traffic violations; and
- Other felony and misdemeanor charges.
In every case, our attorneys work to find a resolution that provides the most positive outcome for our clients. We will conduct a thorough investigation of the circumstances surrounding your arrest, finding any and all information that can be used to have the charges completely dismissed if possible. If your case goes to trial, our attorneys possess strong litigation skills and decades of combined courtroom experience. We will fight to make sure you are treated fairly, taking all necessary steps to help you avoid being convicted.
When necessary and appropriate, we are prepared to work with prosecutors and law enforcement on behalf of our clients. Our team will explore every available option to help you avoid a conviction and minimize the impact on your life. If a plea bargain will be beneficial for you, we will help you make decisions about whether to accept an agreement while negotiating terms that will protect your rights and interests.
