Criminal Law
Perhaps nothing can be more stressful than trouble with the government. Unlike Civil Law where liability can be paid in money, in Criminal Law, the government can ask for and get jail time (punishment). Your liberty is perhaps your most important asset. Protect it by having a competent attorney to represent you irrespective of the matter. You may feel an urge to “plead out” to put the matter behind you. This can have long-term impact on your reputation and ability to gain employment in the future. Importantly and fortunately, the government must prove beyond a reasonable doubt that you are responsible and should be punished. Don’t let the urge to put the matter behind you be your guiding thought.
If you are the subject of a criminal matter (no matter how small or inconsequential), please contact our office for a free consultation to learn your rights as the accused. Contact
