Criminal Law

• Criminal Defense
• DUI/DWI
  All it takes is one mistake. If you have been arrested for drunk driving, you will lose your license and you could even go to jail, unless you fight back. You want an attorney who can protect your rights in court and help you take steps to minimize the potential consequences.
• Traffic Violations
  Is it worth fighting your speeding ticket? When you see those police lights flash behind you, it may seem inevitable that you will be faced with a large fine. In most cases, paying the fine may seem like the only reasonable option, however it isn’t, especially if you already have a violation on your record, or have a history of traffic violations, you need to start looking for solutions.
