About Jaymes
Biography
For over six years I have dedicated my practice to criminal defense and criminal appeals. I enjoy protecting the rights of people not only who have been accused of crimes, but also those who have already been convicted.
When you are charged with a crime, there are always options available, no matter how hopeless it may seem. These options can include suppressing evidence or moving for dismissal, negotiating a favorable plea agreement and sentence, or taking a case to trial. Even if you have already been convicted, whether by a guilty verdict or a plea, there may still be options available to improve the situation by filing a post-conviction motion or appeal.

Outstanding Result
I hired Attorney Fenton to represent me after I was charged with Hit and Run as a felony. Attorney Fenton was excellent and he was able to get the entire case reduced to a ticket by threatening to go to trial. I would highly recommend him.
