First Time Offenses and Misdemeanors

You could live another 1000 years, and you will never forget the way the cold steel handcuffs felt as they clamped down on your wrist bones. You will never forget the harsh tone the police officer took when he told you he didn't care about your explanation or what really happened. He was taking you to jail no matter what. That officer was not the only one who refused to listen to you. The officers at the jail did not want to hear what you had to say, the District Attorney did not want to hear what you had to say, and the judge imposed bond with apparent indifference. It is time for you to have your say. Our firm will ensure that you have your day in court.
