What Does A Criminal Defense Attorney Do In A Defense Case?

A criminal defense attorney is your investigator, negotiator, strategist, and litigator — often all in the same week.

Pre-Charge Phase

We can engage with detectives before charges are filed, present exculpatory evidence to the DA, and sometimes prevent filing altogether.

Pretrial Phase

We file discovery motions, suppression motions, Pitchess motions for officer records, and retain experts in forensics, accident reconstruction, or toxicology.

Trial Or Resolution

We negotiate from a position of strength — because the prosecution knows we are ready to try the case if the offer is not right.
