Our Criminal Defense Services

row settings

DUI Defense

Pleading guilty to DUI can cost you your license, your job, and your freedom. We help you challenge the stop, suppress the evidence, or negotiate a better outcome. In many cases, we’re able to reduce the charge or beat it entirely.

DUI Defense

Drug Crimes

From misdemeanor possession to felony trafficking, drug charges often hinge on questionable evidence and police shortcuts. We dig into every detail, from testing procedures to chain of custody, to build a solid defense or create leverage for negotiation.

Drug Crime Defense

Violent Crimes

Charges like assault, aggravated battery, and armed robbery often come down to split-second decisions and incomplete accounts. We scrutinize everything, from police bodycam footage to witness statements, and bring the real story to light when prosecutors overreach or overcharge.

Sex Crimes

False accusations. Flawed forensic evidence. Unreliable witnesses. Sex crime allegations can be deeply damaging, even before a conviction. We protect your rights and fight to make sure the whole story is told.

Murder Defense

Murder is the most serious accusation a person can face. These cases demand an aggressive, detail-driven defense from the very beginning. We investigate thoroughly, challenge every piece of the prosecution’s case, and take the lead in shaping the narrative for trial.

Additional Practice Areas

Conviction doesn’t always mean it’s over. We handle appeals, post-conviction relief (including writs of habeas corpus), and civil forfeiture recovery. These complex areas of law require deep focus and sharp legal skill—and that’s what we bring to the table.

Focused. Relentless. Prepared.

We don’t believe in vague platitudes or marketing fluff. What we do believe in are the three principles that guide every defense we mount:

We’re fearless: we don’t hesitate to take a case to trial, demand a speedy trial, or expose procedural mistakes.

We’re thorough: every case is fully developed before we ever set foot in a courtroom or negotiation.

We’re compelling: jurors listen. Judges listen. We know how to present your side in a way that resonates.
