Criminal Law

Misdemeanor charges may seem minor compared to felonies, but they can still result in jail time, fines, probation, and a criminal record. We represent clients facing a wide range of misdemeanor offenses, including theft, disorderly conduct, simple battery, trespassing, and driving-related offenses. These cases often move quickly through the court system, making it important to act early. We work to protect your rights, challenge the evidence, and pursue the best possible outcome.

A felony accusation can have life-changing consequences, including lengthy prison sentences, substantial fines, loss of civil rights, and damage to your personal/professional reputation. We defend clients facing serious charges such as aggravated assault, burglary, drug trafficking, weapons offenses, and other felony allegations. Every felony case requires a thorough review of the evidence, police procedures, and witness statements. We build a strategic defense to address the specific facts and circumstances of your case.

A DUI arrest can affect far more than your driving privileges. Depending on the circumstances, you may face license suspension, mandatory education programs, probation, incarceration, or fines. DUI cases often involve complex issues related to traffic stops, field sobriety exercises, breath testing procedures, and blood alcohol analysis. We examine every aspect of the investigation to identify weaknesses and procedural errors while helping you understand the legal process and your available options.

Drug possession charges can range from misdemeanor offenses to serious felony allegations depending on the substance, amount involved, and surrounding circumstances. A conviction may impact employment opportunities, professional licensing, housing, and educational goals. These cases frequently involve questions about searches, seizures, probable cause, and the legality of law enforcement actions. We thoroughly analyze the evidence and develop a defense strategy tailored to the facts of your case.

Being accused of violating probation can place you back before a judge and expose you to penalties that were suspended. Alleged violations may involve missed appointments, unpaid financial obligations, failed drug tests, new criminal charges, or failure to complete court-ordered requirements. Probation violation proceedings move differently from traditional criminal cases. We help clients address allegations, present mitigating circumstances, and advocate for reasonable resolutions whenever possible.

Domestic violence battery allegations often arise from highly emotional situations involving spouses, former partners, family members, or household members. Even before a case is resolved, an arrest can affect your family relationships, employment, housing, and firearm rights. These cases frequently involve conflicting accounts and requests for protective orders. We carefully review the facts, evidence, and circumstances surrounding the allegation while working to protect your rights.
