Criminal Cases Are All About Proof
Whether you have been charged with a minor infraction or a serious felony, the criminal defense process is much the same. My job is to show that the prosecution cannot prove their case against you.
As a former Assistant District Attorney, I have been involved as a prosecutor in many criminal cases. I know how the prosecution will attempt to prove their case against you, and I know how to create a strategy that will help you best defend yourself against their accusations. Some of the steps I will take include:
- I will investigate the search and seizure process used by investigators, and request to have evidence dismissed if they did not follow the proper procedure.
- If authorities obtained a statement or confession from you illegally, I will file a motion to suppress those discussions.
After investigating your situation, I will aggressively negotiate with the prosecution to reach a fair plea agreement on your behalf. However, if they are unwilling to give you a reasonable deal, I will bring your case to trial. With over 20 years of experience, I am comfortable in the courtroom and before a jury.
