Services
At The Law Office of Kevin R. Pettrey, PLC, we believe in bringing years of experience representing hundreds of individuals just like you to individuals who need professional legal services, in a cordial atmosphere.
From the very start of your case, we will begin preparing a strategy that will carry you through to the end of your case.
What happens at the beginning of a case can have a significant impact on your final outcome.
By building a strategy early, instead of reacting and responding to the moves of the other side, we put you on the offensive, instead of defense.
If you are charged with any crime, you should have a lawyer.
And when choosing a lawyer you should find one that is dedicated to defending individuals in criminal cases.
You should find one that has a record of winning and one that has the respect of the police officers and prosecutors involved in your case.
Kevin R. Pettrey, Esq., is that attorney.
When you are charged with a crime, the government has nearly unlimited resources to go after you, do you have someone with resources to defend you?
Many cities are not offering any deals to defendants charged with drug crimes, and some are taking these cases to a jury trial, which can significantly increase the punishment a defendant faces.
Possession offenses are charges that stem simply from having drugs.
Drugs such as cocaine, heroin, and some prescriptions, are considered "Schedule I/II" drugs.
These are your most common serious drug offenses.
Most often, there is a traffic stop that leads to the discovery of the drugs.
But there are defenses.
There are also offenses that only a juvenile can be charged with, such as underage possession of tobacco, curfew violations, certain traffic violations, etc.
The goal of the juvenile court is to rehabilitate, not punish, the young person.
However, an attorney without significant experience in juvenile court may not know all of the available options, such as community service, probation, and other programs to avoid conviction.
Further, the way charges are filed against juveniles is different, and many police officers fail to file the proper paperwork, which can be an absolute defense to the charge.
They are so high-profile that there are movies and television shows just about sexual crimes, and the media clamors for stories about them.
Many attorneys are uncomfortable with sex crimes or have little experience in them.
We have defended clients charged with rape, carnal knowledge of a minor, child pornography possession, distribution, and manufacturing, and sexual assault.
In Norfolk, Mr. Pettrey defended a Navy sailor charged with rape, convincing a jury to find the man not guilty.
These crimes are very serious, and have to be treated very seriously.
