As seasoned drug crime defense lawyers, the partners represent defendants charged with large-scale narcotics conspiracies, manufacturing, and interstate trafficking, aggressively challenging warrantless wiretaps, unconstitutional vehicle stops, and tainted forensic testing.

Defense for Violent Offenses, Homicide, and Theft Charges

When constitutional stakes are highest, defendants need battle-tested litigators. Acting as resolute violent crime defense lawyers, the firm represents clients charged with aggravated assault, weapons offenses, armed robbery, and capital murder, having achieved notable acquittals and death penalty reversals in high-profile cases. Furthermore, as experienced theft and burglary defense lawyers, the firm protects professionals and citizens facing grand larceny, embezzlement, identity theft, and corporate fraud. For motorists encountering alcohol charges, the firm acts as experienced dui and dwi defense lawyers and traffic ticket lawyers, challenging field sobriety testing and chemical evidence to preserve driving privileges.
