Offered Criminal Law Services
With a career spanning over 17 years, I have defended thousands of clients in a wide range of criminal cases, from minor offenses to the most serious charges, such as murder and rape. I also offer legal representation in the following areas:
- Domestic violence: This involves knowingly causing or attempting to cause physical harm to a family or household member. Even threats of violence can be classified as domestic violence. These charges are serious and can greatly affect both your personal and professional life.
- Assault: Assault charges can range from simple assault, such as pushing or shoving someone, to more serious offenses like negligent or felony assault. For instance, under Ohio law, simple assault can lead to penalties of up to six months in jail and fines of $1,000.
- Theft: Theft charges can include petty, grand and identity theft. Each type carries different penalties and can have long-lasting consequences. In general, theft crime penalties are harsh and may include jail time and/or steep fines.
- Driving under the influence (DUI): DUI charges can result in severe consequences, including fines, license suspension and incarceration. I offer comprehensive defense strategies to challenge the evidence and minimize the impact of DUI charges on your life.
- Sex crimes: Offenses such as rape, sexual assault and possession of child pornography carry severe consequences that can permanently affect your life. These cases are highly sensitive and significantly affect individuals and their loved ones.
- Weapon charges: Charges related to the illegal possession and use of firearms can result in severe penalties. They can also enhance the penalties when weapons are used in conjunction with another crime.
- Drug-related crimes: Charges involving the possession, distribution and manufacturing of illegal drugs can lead to significant penalties.
These criminal charges have serious consequences. My extensive knowledge of the Ohio criminal justice system enables me to prepare thoroughly and defend your case.
Know Your Rights After An Arrest
When police arrest you, you have the right to remain silent and request an attorney. After the arrest, you will be taken to a police station for booking, where you will be fingerprinted and photographed. During this time, it is crucial to refrain from speaking to law enforcement without legal representation.
An experienced and knowledgeable attorney is crucial in these criminal cases. I can help build a strong defense from the very beginning and ensure that law enforcement does not infringe on your rights.
