Services
DUI Defense
Defending against DUI charges requires specialized knowledge of chemical testing, field sobriety evaluations, and DMV procedures. Our firm challenges evidence admissibility, contests breathalyzer accuracy, and negotiates reduced penalties while protecting driving privileges through administrative hearings. With experience handling alcohol, drug, and combined impairment cases across Southern California courts, we develop tailored defense strategies for first-time and repeat offenses.
Drug Possession Defense
We defend against simple possession and sales charges under Health & Safety Code sections. Our approach includes challenging unlawful searches, disputing possession claims, and securing diversion programs like Prop 47 or PC 1000. For serious cases, we negotiate reduced sentences or alternative sentencing while addressing immigration consequences and employment impacts for California residents facing felony or misdemeanor drug charges.
Sex Offenses Defense
Sex offense cases require sensitive handling and aggressive defense strategies. We challenge evidence credibility, address false accusations, and mitigate registration requirements. Our representation covers charges from sexual battery to child pornography, focusing on preserving clients' futures through trial preparation, plea negotiations, and post-conviction relief while addressing societal stigma and registration implications.
Assault & Battery
We defend against misdemeanor and felony assault charges including domestic violence, great bodily injury, and deadly weapon enhancements. Our strategies include self-defense claims, witness credibility challenges, and disproving intent. With experience handling simple battery to aggravated assault cases, we negotiate reduced charges, probation alternatives, and work to prevent long-term criminal record impacts.
Three Strikes Defense
Three strikes law cases demand experienced representation to avoid mandatory sentencing enhancements. We challenge prior conviction validity, negotiate strike removals, and develop trial strategies to prevent life-altering consequences. Our firm successfully reduced a 17-year strike sentence to four years through evidentiary challenges and strategic plea negotiations.
