Whether you are facing actual charges or dealing with potential future criminal legal issues, we are committed to protecting your interests and ensuring you receive a fair and just legal process.
Criminal counsel grounded in preparation.
- Misdemeanor Defense
Traffic offenses, DUI, assault, and other misdemeanor charges — defended with attention to long-term consequences, not just the immediate outcome.
- Felony Defense
Serious charges require serious preparation. We investigate, scrutinize evidence, and build the defense the case actually needs.
- Pre-Charge Counsel
If you are under investigation but not yet charged, the time to engage counsel is now. Decisions made early shape everything that follows.
- Trial & Negotiation
We are prepared to negotiate when it serves you and to try the case when negotiation does not.
What to do — and not do — after an arrest.
The decisions made in the first 48 hours after an arrest often shape the rest of the case. Statements made to police, consents to search, and missed bond hearings can all narrow the options counsel has later.
If you or a family member has been arrested, the priorities are simple: invoke your right to remain silent, secure release, and get a lawyer involved before anything else happens.
Quiet representation before charges are filed.
If you have learned that you are under investigation — through a subpoena, a search warrant, or a contact from a detective — the time to engage counsel is now, not after charges are filed.
Pre-charge representation can prevent charges from being filed, narrow the charges that do come, and avoid the avoidable mistakes investigators are hoping you will make.
Charges that affect your record, your license, and your insurance.
DUI, reckless driving, and other serious traffic offenses are not paperwork. A conviction can mean jail time, license suspension, ignition interlock, and insurance consequences that follow you for years.
We scrutinize the stop, the field sobriety testing, and the breath or blood evidence; identify procedural defects; and pursue the outcome that protects your record and your livelihood.
Misdemeanor on paper. Felony in consequences.
Assault, petty larceny, drug possession, and other misdemeanors can carry consequences that go well beyond the courthouse — employment, professional licensing, immigration status, and college admissions among them.
We treat misdemeanor cases with the preparation they deserve and pursue dispositions that protect you from collateral consequences whenever possible.
Serious charges require serious preparation.
Felony charges put your liberty and your future on the line. They demand thorough investigation, motion practice, evidentiary scrutiny, and — when warranted — trial.
We build felony defenses from the ground up: investigating the underlying facts, challenging the evidence, working with experts when the case calls for it, and preparing every case as if it will be tried.
Decisions made in the first 48 hours often shape the rest of the case. Get counsel involved before anything else happens.
Possession, distribution, and the cases in between.
Drug cases turn on search and seizure law more than almost any other category. The legality of the stop, the search, and the seizure often determines whether the case can be prosecuted at all.
We pursue suppression where the facts support it, and negotiate dispositions — including diversion and treatment-based outcomes — where they serve the client.
Cases where family law and criminal law overlap.
Domestic assault charges and protective order proceedings carry immediate restrictions on your residence, your contact with family, and your right to possess firearms — and they often arise in the middle of separations and custody disputes.
We represent clients on both sides of these cases with the awareness that the criminal outcome and the family law outcome are usually inseparable.
Charges that demand documentary defense.
Embezzlement, fraud, and similar charges are won and lost in the documents. Bank records, accounting entries, emails, and electronic evidence drive the prosecution — and the defense.
We work through the records with care, identify the missing pieces of the prosecution's narrative, and build a defense grounded in the same documents the Commonwealth relies on.
Mitigation today, expungement tomorrow.
Even when conviction is unavoidable, sentencing is its own contested proceeding. We present mitigation thoroughly, advocate for sentences that reflect the whole person, and pursue alternatives where the law allows.
Where eligibility exists, we also pursue expungement and record sealing — because the conviction does not have to follow you forever.
