Handling Criminal Cases in Columbus

Finding the right criminal attorney to handle your case can be difficult. There are many law firms out there, and some of these use less than ethical tactics to advertise, claiming they are the best or guaranteeing "not guilty" verdicts.

We fight for our clients and use our experience to seek the best possible result in every case we handle. Our mission is to provide clients throughout the Columbus area with hard-hitting defense that will make a difference in their case and personalized service to give them peace of mind. Dealing with criminal charges is difficult enough; we want to alleviate the pressure you are experiencing by asserting your rights at every stage of your case - inside or outside the courtroom.

Our tailored criminal defense strategies are targeted to seek a dismissal of all charges whenever possible, avoiding trial in the first place. However, we are aggressive courtroom litigators and are not afraid of going to bat for our clients in the face of even the most aggressive prosecuting attorneys or uncompromising judges. Some of the specific types of cases we can handle include, but are not limited to: OVI / DUI, traffic violations, drug crimes, drug possession, prescription drug offenses, domestic violence, kidnapping, child pornography, counterfeiting, sex crimes, sexual assault, rape, theft, shoplifting, petty theft, grand theft, murder and manslaughter, assault, vehicular manslaughter, white collar crimes, embezzlement, fraud, and forgery. We also help clients who stand accused of probation violations, such as failures to report or alleged commissions of new crimes. From federal drug trafficking charges to armed robbery to drunk driving and everything in between, you can count on our firm to provide the legal counsel you need.
