Choose an Aggressive Criminal Defense
Whatever the charge, our approach is direct, although our advice is carefully tailored to the stage, situs, and severity of the prosecution, and most importantly to the particular needs and vulnerabilities of the client. We protect and advocate for those who have never been ensnared by the legal system and cannot risk the negative exposure, as well as those who have had previous indiscretions. We represent individuals from all walks of life, each with professional licenses, employment ramifications, and family circumstances to consider. As in all areas of our practice, the scope and direction of our criminal defense representation is interwoven with the unique position of each client.
