Areas of Practice

DUI Defense

Facing a DUI charge can be overwhelming, but I am here to protect your rights and fight for the best possible outcome. With 22+ years of experience in DUI defense, I challenge evidence, negotiate on your behalf, and work to minimize penalties or get charges dismissed.

DMV Hearing Defense

Protecting your driving privileges is crucial. I will challenge license suspensions, including working with expert toxicologists to dispute evidence, improper law enforcement procedures, lack of evidence or timing discrepancies. Throughout the process, I fight to safeguard your rights and keep you on the road.

Domestic Violence

Accusations of domestic violence can have serious legal and personal consequences. I provide a strong, strategic defense to ensure your side of the story is heardโ€”challenging false allegations, impeaching witness credibility when applicable, and pursuing the best possible resolution, whether through dismissal or trial, I'll fight to protect your rights and future.

Expungement & Sealing Arrest Records

I can petition the court to dismiss felony or misdemeanor charges, helping you clear your record through expungement and restore opportunities for employment, housing, and more. If you were arrested, but never charged, I can also request the court to seal your arrest record, keeping it from most public access. Let me navigate the process for you and advocate for a fresh start.

Gun Charges

I offer assertive legal representation to safeguard your 2nd Amendment Constitutional rights to bear arms and 4th Amendment rights against unconstitutional search and seizure of your person, residence or car. I meticulously examine every aspect to challenge the search and evidence. As with all offenses, I pursue case dismissals, or if not possible, negotiate the most favorable reduction in charges.

Criminal Defense

If youโ€™re facing criminal charges, having an experienced defense attorney is crucial. I provide strategic legal representation across a wide range of cases, ensuring your rights are protected and that you receive fair treatment. Whether challenging the evidence, fighting for dismissal or negotiating for reduced charges, I am committed to delivering the strongest possible defense for your case.

I meticulously analyze every aspect of your case to challenge the evidence, identify weaknesses in the prosecution's case, and aggressively pursue the best possible outcome.

๏ปฟ

My priority is to:

I.


Seek Case Dismissal

by challenging procedural errors, insufficient evidence, and violations of your rights.

II.


Reduce Charges

through strategic negotiation and compelling legal arguments.

III.


Take Your Case to Trial

by rigorously challenging the prosecution's case and fighting for a Not Guilty verdict.

IV.


Post-Case Advocacy

I can petition the court to have your prior convictions dismissed and also petition the court to seal your prior arrests, in most cases.

What Sets Me Apart?

I provide an aggressive, personalized defense with a deep commitment to protecting your rights and future. With over two decades of experience, I take a strategic, results-driven approach, ensuring every client receives dedicated attention and a tailored legal strategy. Unlike larger firms, I prioritize clear communication, relentless advocacy, and the best possible outcome. When you choose me, you're not just hiring a lawyerโ€”youโ€™re gaining a trusted legal ally who fights for you.
