- DUI/DWIThere are a variety of tests given by the police when they suspect you are driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol. To be valid, these tests must be administered properly. Additionally, the machines used in these tests must be calibrated correctly. When there are questions about the administration of a blood alcohol content (BAC) test, it is important to have a seasoned Bucks County DUI defense lawyer to explore the legal issues associated with DUI testing.
- Traffic ViolationsMany people think that traffic tickets are minor inconveniences at worst. They fail to consider the cumulative result of points and license suspension. There are also collateral issues, including increased insurance premiums, inability to perform certain types of work, and further penalties if charged with driving after license suspension.

- Fraud
- RobberyA weapons offense on its own can carry a significant sentence. However, if a weapon was present while another crime was being committed — armed robbery, for example — the penalties are even more severe. Prosecutors can seek enhanced sentences in cases where a weapon was present, even if the gun was inoperable or fired. It takes an experienced defense attorney to fight weapons charges and prevent the most serious consequences. If you have been charged with a crime due to an alleged gun law violation, we can also work to protect you from the serious consequences of felony or misdemeanor charges.

- Drug CrimesAuthorities in Pennsylvania are aggressive in finding and punishing those alleged to be involved in crimes related to prescription drugs. People charged with these offenses are often treated just as harshly as people accused of drug crimes involving heroin, cocaine and other illegal narcotics.
- AssaultMany of these charges are subject to mandatory minimum sentences, including two- or three-strike offenses, drug trafficking penalties for large quantities, murder, offenses committed with firearms, aggravated assault, accidents involving personal injury, and offenses committed against juveniles or the elderly.
- MurderJUDGE: PRISON OR 2ND CHANCE FOR TEEN ACCUSED OF A HORRIFIC CRIME: Stabbing to death a neighbor. Under Pennsylvania law, juvenile murder defendants are automatically processed in the adult court system — unless the defense seeks to transfer the case back to juvenile court. His lawyer, Richard Fink, filed and won a motion for just such a transfer. The client was placed in a juvenile program. Not long before his 21st birthday the judge deemed the case closed and he was free. He was appointed by the governor’s office to sit on a state juvenile justice and delinquency prevention committee. Fink, called the Judge’s decision courageous, and correct. In adult prison, he “would’ve been the youngest, smallest person on the cell block. He would’ve rotted away,” Fink says.

One of the strength of his approach to juvenile matters is his determination to seek alternatives to out-of-home placement that would take the child away from his or her family. Alternatives to incarceration can be fought for and can include drug or alcohol treatment, juvenile sex offender programs and juvenile probation. Not all the alternatives are equally effective; attorney Fink works hard to gain admission to the best programs for the firm’s juvenile clients.
