Our Approach to Criminal Defense
Every criminal case is different, which is why we take a detailed, methodical approach to preparing your defense. We review every piece of evidence, from officer reports to body cam footage to lab test results. We examine the circumstances of your arrest to determine whether your rights were violated, whether the police lacked probable cause, or whether the search or seizure of evidence was unlawful.
Depending on your case and the charges at hand, your defense strategy may include:
- Challenging the legality of the traffic stop or arrest
- Suppressing improperly obtained evidence
- Disputing eyewitness statements
- Examining the accuracy of chemical test results
- Presenting mitigating factors
- Attempting to negotiate for reductions or alternative resolutions
- Preparing for trial when needed
