Criminal Defense Lawyer

A DUI charge can impact your license, employment, and freedom. Our defense attorneys challenge field sobriety tests, breathalyzer results, and police procedures to build the strongest possible defense. We handle first-time offenses through repeat charges and aggravated DUI matters.

Many DUI cases involve flawed evidence — improperly calibrated breathalyzers, officer errors in administering field sobriety tests, or unlawful traffic stops. We scrutinize every aspect of the arrest to identify weaknesses in the prosecution's case and file appropriate motions to suppress evidence when your rights were violated.

Beyond the criminal case, we also help you navigate administrative proceedings related to license suspension, installation of ignition interlock devices, and SR-22 insurance requirements. Our goal is to minimize the impact on your life and preserve your driving privileges whenever possible.

Assault charges range from misdemeanors to serious felonies, carrying penalties from fines to significant prison time. We develop comprehensive defense strategies including self-defense claims, witness credibility challenges, and plea negotiations. Our attorneys have extensive experience defending clients against all degrees of assault charges.

Many assault cases arise from misunderstandings, mutual altercations, or situations where our client was actually the victim. We thoroughly investigate the circumstances, interview witnesses, review surveillance footage, and gather evidence that supports your version of events.

When self-defense applies, we build a compelling case showing that your actions were reasonable and proportionate to the threat you faced. When negotiation is appropriate, we work to reduce charges or secure alternative dispositions such as anger management programs or deferred prosecution.

From simple possession to distribution and manufacturing charges, we provide aggressive defense at both state and federal levels. We challenge search and seizure procedures, question evidence handling, and explore diversion programs and alternative sentencing options.

The Fourth Amendment protects you from unreasonable searches and seizures. If law enforcement obtained evidence through an illegal search, traffic stop, or warrant that lacked probable cause, we file motions to suppress that evidence — which can result in dismissal of charges.

For first-time offenders and non-violent drug cases, we explore alternatives to incarceration including drug court, deferred prosecution, treatment programs, and community service. Our goal is to address the underlying issues while minimizing the long-term impact of drug charges on your record and future.

We defend clients accused of shoplifting, burglary, robbery, fraud, embezzlement, and other property crimes. Our approach includes challenging evidence, negotiating reduced charges, and pursuing dismissals when procedural violations have occurred.

Property crime charges are classified by the value of property involved and the circumstances of the alleged offense. Higher-value thefts and offenses involving force or weapons carry significantly more serious penalties. We evaluate every element of the charge to identify the best defense strategy.

For first-time offenders, we often negotiate diversion programs, restitution agreements, or reduced charges that can minimize or avoid a criminal record. For more serious allegations, we prepare aggressive defenses that challenge identification evidence, intent, and the value calculations used by prosecutors.

Domestic violence allegations carry serious consequences including protective orders, loss of custody rights, criminal penalties, firearm restrictions, and lasting damage to your reputation. We provide vigorous defense while navigating the intersection of criminal and family court proceedings.

False or exaggerated domestic violence allegations are unfortunately common, especially during contentious divorces and custody disputes. We investigate the accuser's motives, examine inconsistencies in their statements, gather evidence that contradicts their claims, and present your side of the story effectively.

We also help you navigate no-contact orders and their impact on your ability to see your children, access your home, and maintain your daily life. Throughout the process, we work to protect both your freedom and your family relationships.

When you face serious felony charges or federal investigations, you need experienced trial attorneys who understand what is at stake. Our criminal defense team handles weapon offenses, federal crimes, white-collar criminal matters, and other serious charges with aggressive representation at every stage.

Federal cases are investigated by agencies such as the FBI, DEA, ATF, and IRS, and are prosecuted by United States Attorneys with significant resources. Federal sentencing guidelines often result in longer sentences than state courts. We have experience in federal courts and understand the unique procedures, rules, and strategies required.

From the moment you learn you are under investigation, having an attorney involved can make a critical difference. We advise you on your rights during investigations, negotiate with prosecutors, file pre-trial motions, and prepare compelling defenses for trial when necessary.
