Criminal Defense
If you have been arrested, it is important to protect your rights. Do not say anything to the police or prosecution before consulting with a knowledgeable defense attorney. Being convicted for even a seemingly minor offense can have repercussions that affect many areas of your life, including your education and employment prospects, so it is important to have an experienced criminal defense attorney protecting your rights.
I defend clients against a wide range of criminal charges, including:
Drug Crimes – Sex Offenses – Theft Crimes – Bond Hearings – Federal Crimes – Juvenile Crimes – Domestic Violence – Assault and Battery – White Collar Crimes – Firearms/Weapons Charges – Violation & Early Termination of Probation – Post Conviction Relief and Criminal Appeals
DUI’s
Unlike many other types of driving-related offenses, a DUI conviction will go on your permanent criminal record. Depending on the circumstances, you also face substantial fines, potential jail time, and a driver’s license suspension. But the impact of a DUI can go far behind what is court mandated. You may face issues maintaining or obtaining employment or professional licensure.
Being charged with a DUI doesn’t have to affect your future, but it can. The best way to mitigate the penalties you face is to hire a criminal defense lawyer.
