Why You Need Me in Your Corner

After being charged with a criminal offense, it is important to get help from a devoted private defense attorney who will competently defend your case.

Public defenders often have a large case load and may be unable to give your case the attention it deserves. At my firm, I approach each case with a fresh outlook. I will investigate all aspects of your case, finding evidence, witnesses, or anything else that can help me build a strong defense strategy.

Since every case is unique and every client is different, I style my cases with a personalized approach. This type of one-on-one, customized service cannot be found at larger firms or with lawyers who do not care about your case.

With our Akron criminal defense lawyer on your side, you can be confident that your case is in good hands. I have a solid reputation in the Akron & Cleveland courts, which is an invaluable asset to my clients.

Providing Criminal Defense in Akron & Cleveland

If you have been charged with a crime, your penalties will depend on the severity of the offense. No matter how serious the evidence against you, I will do everything I can to dispute the prosecution's claims.

The most common offenses in Akron are operating a vehicle while intoxicated (OVI), or drunk driving, drug-related offenses, traffic violations, and theft offenses. While these are often misdemeanors, multiple offenses or aggravated offenses may be charged as felonies. Both felonies and misdemeanors, however, will stay on your record and can cause issues beyond the court ordered penalties.

Other cases that I defend include, but are not limited to, the following:

If you've already been convicted of an offense, we may be able to appeal your case or apply for an expungement.
