Violent Crimes

Protecting Your Individual Rights In the Courtroom and Beyond
When you are accused of a crime of domestic violence, you face harsh penalties including jail time, probation, required classes and other limitations on your freedom. Even when you are innocent, you are further penalized by the social stigma that accompanies charges of this kind. In these cases, you need an experienced attorney who believes in you, who can effectively challenge the evidence against you, and who can undermine the credibility of your accuser.

If you are charged with Assault and Battery or any violent crime, you face serious penalties including jail time, probation, and limitations on your freedom. A conviction of a crime of violence can also have far-reaching consequences for your future.  As in domestic violence cases, such charges often hinge on the credibility of the accuser versus the accused. You need an experienced attorney who will fight for you.  
As a Deputy Public Defender in Mendocino County,  I aggressively defended clients charged with assault, battery and other crimes of violence. I understand how to successfully defend you, expose the weaknesses in the case against you, and effectively cross-examine your accuser to reveal the inconsistencies in their story. I am committed to protecting your rights and providing you with the best defense possible.
