GET THE AKAMINE
ADVANTAGE
Aggressive Representation from a Former Prosecutor.
Being charged with a crime is an intimidating experience: seeing the flashing lights of a police cruiser behind you: hearing and the words “you are under arrest”; and the feeling handcuffs clicking around your wrists. 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 essential, but it’s difficult to know who to hire when every lawyer is claiming to be the right choice. Here’s what sets me apart from the crowd.
What is the Akamine Advantage?
As a former prosecutor, I have a unique perspective that makes me an asset to your defense. The truth is, I used to fight for the other side. I know their tactics, and I have the know-how to defend against any methods they may employ.
I know Columbus.
- I went to school here. I attended The Ohio State University’s Moritz College of Law.
- I perfected my craft here. I was a Franklin County Public Defender and a Columbus City Prosecutor.
- I defend the citizens here. I know the area and I know the people in it. My office is located on Front Street in the Brewery District, just outside German Village, and a short walk from Schiller Park. My office is located within the City of Columbus and aggressively defending the citizens who reside here is important to me.
What does this mean for your defense?
It means I am very familiar with the officers, judges, and prosecutors in the Columbus area. Chances are, I’ve worked with them before and know what to expect. This can be vital to your defense.
