DO I NEED TO RETAIN AN ATTORNEY TO DEFEND ME IF I AM CHARGED WITH A CRIMINAL OFFENSE?
Yes. I would recommend it. It is not the amount of the fine, money is replaceable. A criminal record is an indelible mark that may take up to five (5) years to expunge. You may be precluded from securing employment as a school teacher or government official. If you are already employed by government you may be required to forfeit your position. You may be denied a license to practice by a professional licensing board even if you have met all requirements. If you are not a United States citizen you may be deported.
In the thirty (30) I have been defending clients charged with criminal offenses and DWI-DUI I have helped many avoid criminal record, avoid jail time, avoid maximum fines, avoid driver’s license suspension.
If you or your child has been charged, I can possibly help you if retained.
Please contact me for your free initial consultation and a no nonsense discussion about how I can help you.
