From OUI Defense To Criminal Record Sealing, We Are Here For You
Operating under the influence (OUI), also known as “DUI,” is often more serious than people realize. Your driver’s license, your job and your freedom may be at stake. We have the experience to fight the charges, whether it’s a first-time offense or a subsequent charge. We’ll seek a hardship license and work to keep you out of jail. If the prosecutor won’t negotiate with us, then we can try your case in court. We are attorneys who have the trial experience necessary to protect your rights.
In addition to managing OUI charges, we represent people needing counsel for:
- Restraining orders
- Violent crimes
- Assault
- Weapons crimes
- Drug crimes
- Theft crimes
- White collar crimes and fraud
- Driving crimes
- The sealing of criminal records
No matter how big or small the case is, we take every criminal matter seriously. We know that your future may depend on a favorable outcome, and we will vigorously pursue it.
Do I Need A Criminal Defense Lawyer?
Yes. People often make the mistake of trying to defend themselves, especially if they think they are not guilty. They think that they can talk their way out of the charges by explaining what happened. It may sound simple, but this is usually a mistake. It is not uncommon for people who try this tactic to end up being convicted.
Part of the problem is that most people do not fully know their rights. With a criminal defense attorney representing you, however, your rights will be protected at every step of the way. Our attorneys bring decades of experience to criminal defense cases. With our experience, we know what the prosecutor is likely to do. This allows us to prepare a tough, solid defense for our clients. In addition, we do not just accept the first plea offer from the prosecutor. We know when an offer is not in our client’s best interests and we will continue to negotiate until they produce an acceptable offer. When that does not happen, we will take the case to trial. We have considerable trial experience and are not afraid to fight for you in court.
