Aggressive Defense from a former Prosecutor.
As a former Franklin County Public Defender and a Columbus City Prosecutor, I am very familiar with the officers, judges, and prosecutors in the Columbus area. Chances are, I’ve worked with them before, I know their tactics and how to defend you against them.
Being charged with a crime is an intimidating experience. I know you have questions. Will I go to jail? Will I lose my job? Will I be able to care for my family emotionally and financially?
Mistakes and misunderstandings can happen to anyone. Hiring the right defense lawyer is critical, but it’s difficult to know who to hire when every lawyer is claiming to be the right choice.
