Criminal Defense 50%

We defend the accused against both felony and misdemeanor charges, including but not limited to theft, burglary, assault, robbery, drug possession and trafficking, and sex offenses. Aggressive representation- as if we have a stake in the outcome.

50%
Immigration 25%

We assist non-citizens with visas, adjustments of status, asylum claims, deportation defense, immigration consequences of criminal charges, and other matters relating to gaining or retaining status to live and work in the United States.

25%
Speeding and Traffic Ticket 15%

A number of traffic offenses can result in jail time, and at the least an accumulation of MVA points. Citations for these offenses can ruin your driving record and raise your insurance premiums. We can represent you at your MVA hearing and in court.

15%
DUI and DWI 10%

If you have been arrested for drunk driving, you are probably wondering what will happen to your car, your license, your driving privileges, and your record. You have only 10 days from the date of your arrest to contact the MVA and schedule a hearing
