Defending Against a Wide Range of Criminal Charges
I have meaningful experience defending clients against a wide range of felony and misdemeanor criminal charges, including (actual cases):
- Capital murder case: result - jury trial verdict, not guilty
- Attempted murder (assault and homicide): result - reduced to minor misdemeanor
- Resisting arrest: result - jury trial verdict not guilty
- Gang murder case: result - reduced to voluntary manslaughter
- Gange murder case: result- reduced to assault with a deadly weapon
- Murder (lover's quarrel): result - jury trial verdict reduced to manslaughter
- Rape and robbery charge: result - robbery charged dismissed after successful writ filed, rape charge dismissed by DA before trial
- Drug sales/transportation charges: result - dismissed after successful motion to suppress
Every case is different, and the results of your case will depend upon the facts of your situation. I am dedicated to uncovering the information that strengthens my clients case. I will thoroughly investigate the details of your case by conducting witness interviews and carefully reviewing legal documents. If I believe police violated your constitutional rights, I will file a motion to suppress evidence and attempt to get your charges dropped.
Understanding Immigration Issues
If you are an immigrant and not yet a naturalized citizen, your status in this country can be put in great danger by a criminal conviction. It is extremely important that you hire an attorney that understands the consequences that a criminal conviction can have on your immigration status. An experienced defense attorney can will know the importance of negotiating a resolution that will have the least impact on your immigration status.
