We Can Develop an Innovative Strategy for You

When it comes to defending against criminal charges, a one-size-fits-all approach is ineffective.

Our attorney can analyze the facts and examine the evidence to determine the most appropriate strategy for you. By understanding the case from your perspective, we can ensure that your version of events is heard.

Our criminal defense lawyer in Clayton delivers effective counsel for a range of matters, including, but not limited to:

Our team also handles appellate matters. Thus, if you did not receive an optimal result in your case, we'll examine the trial court's record, determine if a legal error occurred, and file an appeal on your behalf. We work toward ensuring that all options are considered and that no person is improperly subject to harsh penalties.
