When you or someone you know has been arrested, every decision is important and potentially life-altering. In order to defend yourself from state, federal or local criminal charges, smart choices need to be made early on in the process. You should consult with - and retain when necessary - an experienced, dedicated attorney you can trust. You'll want an aggressive legal team to immediately devote their time, experience, judgment and maximum effort for you.
For more than 29 years, I have either prosecuted or defended people who have been charged with a wide spectrum of crimes: everything from traffic tickets to capital murder cases. I know how important it is for you to have someone on your side - someone who will listen to your concerns, return your phone calls and honestly answer your questions.
If you or someone you know has been accused of criminal activity, or has already been formally charged or arrested, you'll need honest, practical legal advice from an experienced and reliable criminal defense attorney.
