Serious Charges Require Experienced Defense
Felony person crimes involve severe offenses against others, often with harsh penalties. These cases demand a felony defense lawyer who knows criminal law inside and out. I represent clients in cases like:
- Aggravated assault with or without weapons
- Robbery, including armed robbery
- Manslaughter, both voluntary and involuntary
- Murder and Measure 11 offenses with mandatory minimum sentences
- Burglary offenses, including First Degree
- Weapon/Firearm offenses
- Kidnapping
- Criminal Mistreatment/child abuse/child neglect
- Arson
- Coercion
- Hit and Run/Assault with Motor Vehicle
- Unlawful Use of a Weapon
- Strangulation
- Stalking
- Violating Stalking Order
A felony conviction can mean years in prison, loss of rights, and lasting damage to your reputation.
Rigorous Defense Tailored to Your Case
Thorough Case Review
I scrutinize all police reports, witness statements, and evidence. Working with private investigators and forensic experts uncovers weaknesses in the prosecution’s case.
Strong Evidence Challenges
Any unlawfully obtained evidence or procedural errors can be challenged. I focus on exposing flaws to raise reasonable doubt and protect your constitutional rights.
Customized Defense Strategies
No two cases are the same. I craft defenses that may include self-defense, mistaken identity, or lack of proof. Whether negotiating or going to trial, my strategy prioritizes your best outcome.
Skilled Negotiation and Trial Representation
I fight to reduce or dismiss charges through plea negotiations. If trial is necessary, I aggressively cross examine witnesses and present your defense clearly to the jury.
