About Charles
Biography
I represent clients in both state and federal courts throughout the State of Pennsylvania on criminal matters including DUI, assault, battery, disorderly conduct, retail theft, possession of narcotics, sex crimes, homicide, probation and parole violations, white collar crimes and embezzlement.
I also represent clients in criminal appeals, proceedings pursuant to the Post Conviction Relief Act, expungements and pardons.
You may contact me for a free 30 minute telephone consultation without obligation. All of my fee arrangements are flat fee. This means that I will do all of the work necessary and agreed to on your case for the amount to which we agree at the beginning of the case, no matter how much work needs to be done or how many court apperances it takes to see your matter through. I offer payment plans on a case-by-case basis.

Great first time experience with lawyering up.
Several months ago I started receiving flyers by mail seemingly out of the blue. They offered protection from being sued, and offers of bankruptcy assistance. It turns out they knew I was about to be served, and took what felt like an unethical route to try to get my business. I contacted Mr. Thom...

Replied last August 26, 2015Thank you for your kind words. It was a genuine pleasure to help you — especially since the motion I filed caused them to withdraw the complaint. I like winning for good people.

Replied last March 30, 2012Here is a fact — in 2011 I saved my clients from over 3,500 years in possible jail time. I don't know who this reviewer is. I can't tell that they aren't happy with the outcome of their case. Not everyone gets what they want in court. Someone has to win, and someone has to lose. But I can think of dozens of my clients who avoided jail or conviction because of my diligent efforts. People who listened to my advice and seriously accepted what I could do and whet I could not. But some people only hear what they want to hear. Those people? No one can help.
