DO I NEED TO RETAIN AN ATTORNEY TO DEFEND ME IF I AM CHARGED WITH A CRIMINAL OFFENSE?
Yes. I would recommend it. Money is replaceable. .A criminal record is an indelible mark that may take up to five (5) years to expunge. A criminal record may preclude your eligibility to secure 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. If you are not a United States citizen you may be deported.
In the thirty (30) years I have been defending clients charged with criminal offenses I have helped many clients avoid criminal record, avoid jail time, avoid maximum fines, avoid loss of driver’s license.
If you or a loved one has been charged, I can possibly help you if retained.
Please contact me today for your free initial consultation and a no nonsense discussion about how I can help you.
