Practice areas
Criminal defense requires expertise in litigation, constitutional law, the law of evidence, appellate law, juvenile and adult criminal procedure, and more. I emphasize client service in my practice; I try to represent my clients so they realize that no attorney could care about their cases more than I do. Along these lines, I am available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

Folks have called me up to ask for help about all kinds of legal matters, and often I am able to help quickly, at a reasonable price. If I cannot help quickly, I will provide the names of some attorneys that I believe to be qualified in that field.

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter
Sharon is aggressive and diligent, while at the same time a most genial attorney. A consummate professional, she is knowledgeable about the law as well as procedure, and has extensive felony and misdemeanor experience. If Sharon is willing to take your case, then you know you are in good hands when facing aggressive prosecutors.

Sharon is one of my go-to references for all things criminal law - I refer to her with confidence and I have seen first-hand the personal care and attention she gives to all of her cases.

I endorse this lawyer. I have known Sharon for a number of years and I find her to be extremely ethical and effective in her handling of serious criminal cases. Sharon has a great work ethic and truly cares about her clients. Her reputation within the local legal community is that she is serious, aggressive and highly competent.
