CRIMINAL LAW

Criminal defendants faced with the possibility of going to jail or prison should always hire an attorney, whether their case is a first offense DUI, domestic violence, drugs or drug related, theft, assault or as serious as a sex crime or even murder. The truth is, no matter what the person's intelligence or educational background, the criminal justice system makes it virtually impossible to do a competent job of self representation. Each criminal case is unique, and only an attorney who is experienced in assessing the particulars of a case--and in dealing with the many variables present in every criminal case--can provide the type of representation that every criminal defendant needs to receive if justice is to be done.

If you are charged with a crime, it is a serious matter. The consequences may include jail or imprisonment, mandatory treatment, fines, and probation. You may also suffer the loss of important rights and privileges, such as voting and driving. A criminal conviction may cause you to lose your job or forfeit future employment opportunities. If you are not a citizen of the United States, a criminal conviction may cause you deportation, exclusion of the United States or denial of naturalization. It is important that you are protected by an attorney in whom you have confidence.
