Criminal Defense

Your trusted criminal defense lawyer in Phoenix, Arizona. With our years of experience and dedication to protecting your rights, we’re here to guide you through the legal process.

Assault & Domestic Violence

We defend assault and domestic violence charges across Arizona. Our team challenges witness statements, 911 calls, and prior-bad-act evidence, and negotiates for dismissals, diversion, or reduced penalties. We move fast to protect your rights, your record, and your freedom.

Drug Possession & Sales

Facing drug possession or sales allegations? We scrutinize searches, traffic stops, and warrant affidavits to suppress illegally seized evidence. From marijuana and pills to narcotics and paraphernalia, we pursue dismissal, diversion, or charge reductions that protect your future.

DUI Defense & Vehicular Crimes

Arrested for DUI in Arizona? Our team challenges breath and blood testing, field-sobriety protocols, and traffic stops while defending your license at MVD. We handle first-offense, extreme DUI, accident cases, and felony aggravated DUI.

Firearm & Dangerous Offenses

Alleged weapons or “dangerous” offenses require decisive strategy. We defend prohibited possessor cases, misconduct involving weapons, and charges enhanced as “dangerous,” working to exclude prejudicial evidence and reduce exposure to mandatory prison terms.

Fraud & Forgery

Accused of fraud or forgery? We dissect financial records, device data, and chain-of-custody issues to challenge the state’s theory. From identity theft to check forgery and embezzlement, we aim to limit restitution and resolve cases with minimal penalties.
