Type of Cases We Handle

DWI & DUI

DWI and DUI are some of the most complicated cases. We are highly skilled in representing clients accused of DWI and vehicular homicides. Our expertise handling forensic and scientific issues such as blood and breath test evidence is crucial to a proper defense.

Violent Felonies

Violent felonies can often require extensive investigations, including gathering witness statements and camera footage. Our firm handles every aspect of that. Violent felonies present a risk of state prison, and we take that very seriously.

White Collar Crimes

White Collar crimes including embezzlement, fraud and tax crimes are complicated. Charges are often preceded by long-term investigations by law enforcement. We have a proven track record of untangling these cases.

Sex Offenses

Sex Offenses are often accompanied by collateral consequences that can follow you for the rest of your life. We handle these nuanced, sensitive matters with care and tact. We understand how the prosecutor works and how they will try to build their case.
