Criminal Defence

Aggressive Defense. Unwavering Protection of Your Rights.

A criminal charge is not a conviction. At JUSTICE<span class=”text-amber-600″>&</span>CO, we believe that every individual deserves a sophisticated and tireless defense, regardless of the allegations. Our criminal defense team is comprised of elite litigators who understand that your freedom, reputation, and future are on the line. We don’t just manage cases; we dismantle the prosecution’s arguments.

Our Defense Specializations

We provide high-stakes representation across a broad spectrum of state and federal offenses:

• White-Collar Crimes: Defending professionals and corporations against allegations of fraud, embezzlement, insider trading, money laundering, and RICO violations. We excel at navigating complex financial evidence.

• DUI & Specialized Driving Offenses: A DUI charge can jeopardize your livelihood. We challenge breathalyzer accuracy, field sobriety test protocols, and the legality of the initial traffic stop to protect your license and record.

• Drug Offenses: From simple possession to federal trafficking and distribution charges, we scrutinize every detail of the search and seizure process to ensure your Fourth Amendment rights were not violated.

• Violent Crimes: Providing rigorous defense for charges including assault, battery, robbery, and domestic violence. We focus on self-defense claims, witness credibility, and forensic evidence.

• Theft & Property Crimes: Defending against shoplifting, burglary, and grand larceny. Our goal is often to seek alternative sentencing or restitution programs to avoid a permanent criminal record.

• Federal Crimes: The federal court is a different arena with stricter sentencing guidelines. Our attorneys are admitted to practice in federal districts and have the experience to handle investigations by the FBI, DEA, and IRS.

The “Right to Counsel” Strategy

When you retain our firm, we immediately execute a multi-point defense shield:

1. Immediate Intervention: We prevent law enforcement from conducting unrepresented interrogations.

2. Evidence Suppression: We file motions to throw out evidence obtained through illegal searches or coerced statements.

3. Independent Investigation: Our team works with private investigators and forensic experts to uncover facts the police may have ignored.

4. Strategic Negotiation: Where appropriate, we negotiate with prosecutors for reduced charges or diversionary programs.
