Located conveniently in Walnut Creek, we provide elite, aggressive, and highly effective Criminal Defense Lawyers and DUI/DWI Defense Lawyers for clients throughout Contra Costa County and Northern California. ⚖ Led by Michael Meehan, a former sheriff and former prosecutor, our legal team possesses a unique, inside understanding of how the prosecution builds its cases.

Whether you need to find a lawyer to fight a first-time DUI charge or require a seasoned advocate for complex felony offenses, we are relentless in our pursuit of justice.

Premier DUI/DWI Defense Representation

A DUI arrest in Walnut Creek triggers a fast-moving and complex legal battle on two fronts: the criminal court system and the California Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV). You have an incredibly short window of time-just ten days-to request a DMV hearing to prevent the automatic suspension of your driver's license. You cannot afford to wait; you need to hire an attorney immediately. Our dedicated DUI/DWI Defense Lawyers scrutinize every single detail of your traffic stop, arrest, and chemical testing. We rigorously challenge the legality of the initial police stop, the administration of field sobriety tests, and the calibration and maintenance of breathalyzer or blood testing equipment. 🚗 We are well-versed in handling cases involving driving under the influence of alcohol, driving under the influence of drugs, and underage DUI offenses. Our goal is always to seek a total dismissal of the charges, but we are also highly skilled at negotiating reduced charges and exploring sentencing alternatives that keep you out of jail, such as electronic monitoring or community service.

Comprehensive Criminal Defense Advocacy

Beyond our renowned DUI defense practice, The Meehan Law Firm provides formidable representation across a wide spectrum of criminal charges. If you have been accused of a crime, you need Criminal Defense Lawyers who will not simply accept the prosecutor's first offer, but who will fight tenaciously to protect your fundamental rights. We handle cases involving assault and battery, where we carefully investigate claims of self-defense or false accusations. For clients facing allegations of domestic violence, our Domestic Violence Lawyers navigate the highly emotionally charged landscape of these cases with discretion and strategic precision. 🛡 We also offer robust defense strategies for individuals charged with drug offenses, utilizing our Drug Crime Defense Lawyers to challenge illegal search and seizure tactics employed by law enforcement. Additionally, if you are accused of theft, fraud, or white-collar crimes, our Theft & Burglary Defense Lawyers have the financial acumen and investigative resources to deconstruct the state's evidence and protect your freedom and reputation.

Protecting Your Future and Professional License

A criminal conviction can have devastating collateral consequences, including the loss of your professional license, restricted employment opportunities, and severe damage to your reputation. If you are a licensed professional-such as a doctor, nurse, or real estate agent-facing criminal charges, you need an attorney who understands the intersection of criminal law and professional disciplinary proceedings. We provide comprehensive professional license defense to protect your livelihood. Furthermore, if you have a prior conviction, our firm handles post-conviction relief and expungements, helping you clear your record and move forward with a clean slate. 💼 We firmly believe that your past should not permanently dictate your future, and we are dedicated to helping you overcome these legal hurdles so you can rebuild your life.
