Services
Criminal Defense
Our criminal defense practice leverages insider knowledge from Mekisha Walker's experience as both prosecutor and defense attorney. We handle misdemeanor and felony cases including assault, drug charges, and DWI offenses. With strategic case analysis and aggressive courtroom representation, we work to secure dismissals, reduced charges, or acquittals while protecting clients' rights throughout the legal process.
Domestic Violence Defense
Specialized defense for domestic violence charges combines legal expertise with sensitive case management. We challenge evidence credibility and prosecutorial tactics while addressing underlying issues that may impact cases. Our track record includes successfully dismissing charges even in no-testimony scenarios through thorough investigation and strategic motion practice.
Expunction Services
We help clients clear criminal records through expunction and nondisclosure orders. This includes evaluating eligibility for dismissed cases, completed probation, or acquitted charges. Our services cover all legal filings and court appearances to remove barriers to employment, housing, and professional licensing while restoring full civil rights.
