I provide uniquely client-driven representation to people facing criminal or parole issues and to victims in criminal cases. You are in the driver's seat with me as your representative. My premium knowledge, education, and commitment will help maximize your chance of receiving the outcome you want. Additionally, all net proceeds from my practice fund advocacy working in criminal justice and other civic areas, so, when you hire me, you are helping yourself or your loved one and society at large. Call me to discuss your situation for free - with no obligation.
I can guarantee that I will explain the issues in your case in a way that is clear and easy to understand. We will take the time to make sure we are on the same page. Critically, I also have the skill to translate those same issues into the technical form that will be clear and precise to the judges, hearing officers, parole board members, or jurors.
To see my appellate presentation style, click on the video link to see my Oral Argument before the Ohio Supreme Court in State v. Whitfield. I begin at 16:37. It may seem technical, but, in appeals, the attorney is adressing only judges (not jurors or other laypeople). The technical nature of appeals is precisely why having an experienced attorney is critical.
I also hold the following federal court admissions:
United States District Court for the Northern District of Ohio
United States District Court for the Southern District of Ohio
United States Court of Appeal for the Sixth Circuit

Attorney Cahoon has represented me a few times over the years. He's always one step a head of the system sometimes two. He is a great guy and a outstanding attorney. If you're looking to hire a lawyer, Spencer is the one you can count on. You can't ask for a better professional. I wouldn't wan...

"I endorse this lawyer. Although I have never worked with Mr. Cahoon, I can see from his answers here on Avvo that he is highly knowledgeable, and thorough. These are two of the most important traits a client should desire in a criminal defense attorney. If I had a case that had Houston connections, I would reach out to him for assistance on that end."
