Key Areas of Practice: Criminal Law
Criminal Charges
When one is said to be facing criminal charges, this means that he or she has been formally accused of committing a crime. Charges are filed by the District Attorney's Office in the area where the defendant is indicted. This is the beginning of criminal court proceedings, and what happens next will vary depending on the nature and severity of the charges, such as whether they are felony or misdemeanor charges in state or federal court. With our experience in criminal law, we understand what to do for clients who are already facing criminal charges and may even be able to help clients avoid formal charges in the first place if we get invovled early enough. Regardless of the particular circumstances surrounding your criminal case, you can count on our discretion, experience and zealous defense representation.
