Our team is skilled, experienced and aggressive – the type of attorneys you want representing you or your business. We take pride in being highly respected and admired by peers, judges and the media as persistent supporters for those charged with a vast array of crimes.
We understand that being charged with a crime is perhaps the most terrifying experience anyone ever can have and that you need a warrior in the court to get through it. Through comprehensive pretrial groundwork and preparation, we have managed to get hundreds of cases terminated.
