Services
DUI Defense
Our DUI defense attorneys handle all charges from first offenses to felony DUI causing injury. We challenge evidence through expert analysis of breathalyzer calibration, field sobriety test validity, and procedural errors during arrest. With former prosecutor insight, we identify weaknesses in the prosecution's case to reduce or dismiss charges while protecting driving privileges.
Drug Crimes
We defend against drug possession, sales, and trafficking charges including marijuana, prescription medications, and controlled substances. Our team challenges illegal search and seizure practices while addressing addiction treatment alternatives. We leverage prosecutorial experience to negotiate reduced sentences or diversion programs for first-time offenders facing possession of drug paraphernalia charges.
Domestic Violence
Our attorneys handle domestic violence charges involving restraining order violations and assault allegations. We challenge credibility of accusers while addressing underlying relationship dynamics. We work to prevent permanent criminal records through alternative sentencing options while protecting clients' employment and firearm rights during the legal process.
Juvenile Offenses
We represent minors facing drug charges, theft crimes, and violent offenses in juvenile court. Our approach focuses on rehabilitation while minimizing long-term consequences. We work with families to implement diversion programs and counseling while challenging evidence through suppression motions when police overreach occurs during juvenile arrests.
White Collar Crimes
Our firm defends against complex financial crimes including embezzlement, identity theft, and mortgage fraud. We analyze financial records to challenge prosecution evidence while negotiating restitution agreements. With former prosecutor experience, we understand how financial crimes are investigated and build defenses that address both criminal charges and potential civil liabilities in Ponzi scheme and internet crime cases.
