Services
DUI Defense
Our DUI defense attorneys challenge evidence, police procedures, and test validity to secure dismissals or reduced charges. We handle breathalyzer challenges, DMV hearings, and license reinstatement. With expertise in California's complex DUI laws, we protect clients' driving privileges and minimize long-term consequences through strategic negotiations or courtroom victories.
Domestic Violence
We defend against domestic violence allegations by challenging evidence credibility and disproving intent. Our strategies address false accusations, self-defense claims, and procedural violations. We work to prevent restraining orders, protect parental rights, and minimize impacts on employment and immigration status while maintaining aggressive courtroom representation when needed.
Drug Crimes
Our drug crime defense focuses on Fourth Amendment violations, chain-of-custody issues, and lab analysis challenges. We handle possession, trafficking, and manufacturing charges with strategies tailored to case specifics. We advocate for alternative sentencing programs where appropriate while preparing for trial to suppress evidence or secure charge reductions in complex drug-related prosecutions.
Assault Charges
We defend assault and battery cases by examining medical evidence, witness credibility, and self-defense claims. Our approach addresses aggravating factors like weapon use or public official victims. We negotiate for lesser-included offenses when appropriate while preparing for trial to challenge prosecution evidence and protect clients' futures from violent crime convictions.
Expungements
Our expungement service helps clients clear criminal records through post-conviction relief. We handle eligibility assessments, petition preparation, and court appearances to remove barriers to employment and housing. We specialize in complex cases involving probation violations while ensuring compliance with California's specific expungement requirements for misdemeanors and eligible felonies.
