Criminal Defense for Misdemeanor and Felony Charges

We defend people charged with a variety of felony and misdemeanor crimes in state court, including:

• Violent crimes, including domestic violence and assault and battery
• Theft crimes such as shoplifting, burglary, or breaking and entering
• Juvenile crimes, including underage drinking or minor in possession
• Drug crimes involving possession, cultivation, manufacture or trafficking
• DUI charges
• Traffic offenses such as reckless driving or driving on a suspended license

Protecting Your Constitutional Rights

No matter your degree of guilt or responsibility for a criminal matter, you still have rights. We are dedicated to protecting your rights under the law. When you are charged with a crime, it is the prosecution’s job to prove your guilt. If there were lapses in protocol, mistakes made in police procedure or an outright disregard for legal processes, we may be able to help mitigate negative outcomes.

In every case, we search for leverage we can use to negotiate dismissals or reduced charges — with the goal of minimizing or eliminating jail time and other penalties.
