Criminal Defense
When you are facing a criminal charge, it is critical to your liberty and your future that you retain an experienced criminal defense attorney. Otherwise, you could find yourself facing a large fine, a jail sentence, probation, and limits to your future employment and housing opportunities. Our firm handles juvenile defense and the defense of adults who are facing criminal charges. Examples of the types of cases we handle include:
- Underage drinking charges;
- Drug-related charges;
- Domestic violence charges;
- Violent crime charges;
- Theft charges;
- Truancy;
- DUI; and
- Traffic violations.
Individuals who have criminal records can seek an expungement to have certain convictions removed, making it easier for them to move forward with their lives. However, expungement has many requirements for the individual and can require the careful oversight of an experienced criminal defense attorney.
