    When you act promptly, an experienced Broadview Heights defense attorney can attack the case head-on from the earliest stages. Patituce & Associates has a reputation among prosecutors in Northeast Ohio as aggressive advocates for our clients; they know that when a defendant hires us, he or she is serious about winning their case.

    So, just how strong does the prosecutor think their case against you is? It’s a question they’ll be asking as they decide how and whether to pursue the charges.

    While we are vigorous litigators in the courtroom, our lawyers take a multifaceted approach. If we believe we can have your charges dismissed before trial, we will fight hard to achieve that. In some cases, this will result in a reduction in charges, which limits your risk of significant and long-lasting penalties. If you’ve been charged with a criminal matter, DUI/OVI, or traffic violation in Broadview Heights, let the former prosecutors at Patituce & Associates help you push back against the cops and prosecutors who are out to convict you.

Whatever you have been charged with, you have a right to a lawyer; make sure you choose that lawyer well. While public defenders provide a valuable service for low-income Ohioans, the fact is that the young lawyers who fill that role are overworked and inexperienced. Prosecutors love going up against public defenders because they know their odds of winning are good. We change those odds.
