Criminal defense

Being charged with a crime is a terrifying experience. With police, investigators, crime labs and prosecutors all on one side, it can seem like it's you against the world. It doesn't have to be.

If you or a loved one is on trial for a crime, a life is on the line. Reputation, educational opportunities, future income, family relationships, and freedom all hang in the balance. The choice of a trial attorney may be the single most important decision your family ever makes.

Our office represents people at trial on all levels of felony and misdemeanor charges. With a strong emphasis on motion practice, we bring every available legal claim to your defense, leveling the playing field, and allowing your story to be heard. Perhaps most importantly, we know that a criminal charge is a family crisis. We work with clients to achieve results that give them, and their loved ones, the best chance to move forward.

You deserve an attorney who knows how to use all the tools of litigation in your defense. You deserve quality, thorough investigation, smart critical legal skills, bulldog tenacity, and the highest levels of professionalism. Often, what makes a difference in a case is having someone on your side that never forgets about you, someone constantly thinking about your case, and your issues. That's where we come in. From the moment we accept a case we obsess about it. And because we fulfill that role, you and your family are freed to manage your lives.
