Criminal Defense
Our criminal defense practice protects clients facing felony and misdemeanor charges. We handle cases involving drug offenses, violent crimes, theft, and immigration consequences. With experience in state and federal courts, we develop tailored defense strategies focused on case dismissal or reduction. Our approach combines courtroom advocacy with client education about legal processes and potential outcomes.
DUI Defense
We defend clients charged with alcohol or marijuana-related DUIs, including license suspension challenges. Our approach addresses field sobriety tests, blood alcohol content evidence, and potential immigration impacts. We negotiate with prosecutors to reduce penalties and fight for clients' driving privileges through DMV administrative hearings and court proceedings.
Drug Charges
Our defense covers possession, sales, transportation, and manufacturing charges under California Health & Safety Codes. We challenge improper charges based on search and seizure violations, negotiate for drug program participation, and protect non-citizens from deportation consequences. We handle complex medical marijuana cases involving cultivation and distribution allegations.
Expungements
We assist clients in clearing criminal records through expungement, probation termination, and felony reduction. Our process includes filing motions to withdraw guilty pleas and setting aside convictions. We help clients overcome employment barriers and immigration issues caused by past convictions while ensuring compliance with post-conviction requirements.
Asset Forfeiture
We represent clients facing government seizure of property or money related to criminal allegations. Our defense challenges unlawful seizures, navigates opposition filing deadlines, and provides documentation to prove legitimate asset sources. We work to protect clients' financial interests during and after criminal proceedings while addressing related legal complexities.
