Criminal Defense

Overview

When you are faced with criminal charges, securing skilled legal counsel is crucial. A conviction can lead to life-altering consequences, including imprisonment, fines, and a criminal record that can affect your future. The prosecution will aggressively pursue a conviction, backed by extensive resources.

When Should You Involve a Criminal Defense Attorney?

Our advice is simple: If you think you might need an attorney, you probably do. From the moment you are accused of a crime or contacted by law enforcement for questioning, your rights and freedom are at risk. Even if you have not been formally charged, speaking with an attorney is a critical step in protecting your rights. Law enforcement may be gathering evidence for an investigation, and without legal representation, you could unknowingly jeopardize your case.

Consulting a criminal defense lawyer early in the process—even before charges are filed—can make a significant difference in the outcome. An experienced attorney can protect your Constitutional rights and work to prevent formal charges from being filed in the first place.
