About Joseph
Biography
I spent 10.5 years prosecuting every kind of crime for the State of North Carolina. I have asked for the death penalty twice. I have been the crime scenes while the police are still processing the evidence. I have taught police how to investigate and prosecute domestic violence case. I have been to the autopsy of a homicide victim to speak with the medical examiner about the cause of death. Put that experience to work for you. As a defense attorney, I have successfully defended people in Asheville from DWI charges, Habitual Felons, Drug Trafficking, Marijuana Growing (Manufacture), Assault with a Deadly Weapon Inflicting Serious Injury with Intent to Kill, and potential murder charges involving self defense using lethal force. I am a gun enthusiast, and enjoy helping people protect their constitutional rights to arm themselves and protect themselves. I am want you, and everyone, to retain all the freedom we are entitled to.
