Gregory D. Simms: Unwavering Defense of Your Rights
When your freedom, reputation, or financial future is on the line, you need more than just a lawyer-you need a fighter. Gregory D. Simms, founder of Greg Simms Law Office, PLLC, has established himself as one of Louisville’s most aggressive and effective trial attorneys. Strategically located at 214 S Clay St in the vibrant NuLu district, the firm is dedicated to protecting the rights of individuals facing criminal charges and civil injustices. Since his admission to the bar in 2007, Greg Simms has built a reputation for fearlessness. He is known for taking cases to trial that other attorneys might plead out, believing firmly that every client deserves a robust defense and the full protection of the Constitution. Whether you are facing a DUI charge, a serious felony, or have been the victim of police misconduct, Greg Simms provides the legal firepower needed to level the playing field.
Criminal Defense Without Compromise
The core of the firm’s practice is criminal defense. Greg Simms understands that the criminal justice system can be intimidating and unfair. He works tirelessly to dismantle the prosecution’s case, scrutinizing every piece of evidence and every police procedure. His practice areas cover the full spectrum of criminal law, including:
- DUI Defense: Challenging breathalyzer results, field sobriety tests, and the legality of traffic stops to keep clients on the road and out of jail.
- Drug Crimes: Defending against charges of possession, trafficking, and manufacturing, with a focus on suppressing illegally obtained evidence.
- Violent Crimes: Handling high-stakes cases such as assault, robbery, and homicide, where the consequences are life-altering.
- Expungements: Helping eligible clients clear their records, giving them a fresh start and better opportunities for employment and housing.
Championing Civil Rights
Beyond criminal defense, Greg Simms is a passionate advocate for civil rights. He is one of the few attorneys in the region who actively pursues cases involving police brutality, false arrest, and excessive force. In an era where civil liberties are often tested, Greg stands as a guardian for those who have been abused by those in power. He is not afraid to sue police departments or government agencies to ensure that justice is served. This dedication extends to personal injury cases as well, where he fights for victims of negligence, applying the same trial-ready mindset to secure maximum compensation for medical bills and pain and suffering.
Justice is not given; it is won. We prepare every case as if it is going to trial because we know that is the only way to get the best possible result for our clients.
