"Lawyers are not created equal, especially in the world of criminal litigation."


Real cases, real experience, real results

Lawyers are not created equal, especially in the world of criminal litigation. Look for a lawyer who knows how to win, not just enter guilty pleas. Ask about real results. “Winning” doesn’t just mean trials, though trial experience is an important barometer. Ask your lawyer about his actual trial experience.

Listed below are some of our cases. These exceptional results are not typical and are not meant to suggest we can replicate them on every case. This list does not include many of the cases we were able to resolve with favorable plea agreements, diversions, or other results that benefit our clients.
