Criminal Law Litigation Law Firm

Being arrested and charged with a crime can be one of the most stressful and frightening events of one’s life. It is important to have the right lawyer to represent you at this critical time. The repercussions of a criminal conviction can last a lifetime and can ruin career and educational opportunities. Furthermore, if your job involves a license or certification, a criminal conviction could jeopardize your standing in that vocation. Hiring an experienced criminal attorney can help ease this stress and protect your future.

An experienced criminal lawyer will know if the police have overstepped their boundaries or if the State’s evidence should be suppressed. An attorney who is unfamiliar with criminal law could easily overlook a crucial issue that could be the difference between a dismissal and a conviction.
