PRE-ARREST AND CRIMINAL INVESTIGATIONS

If you know you are the subject of an investigation, seek the advice and guidance of a skilled and experienced criminal defense attorney. Speak to a lawyer before you interact with law enforcement. There is no reason to wait until you are contacted by the police to call an attorney. Experienced, early intervention and protection of your rights by a qualified lawyer can be of great benefit to your defense. Often it can lead to lesser charges being filed, and sometimes dismissal of charges altogether, and has for many of our clients over the years. Speak to our criminal defense team before you talk to anyone else.
