Facing a homicide charge is one of the more terrifying experiences anyone can undergo. The accused crime is serious, which means that you are looking a very prolonged period of jail time if you don't have the proper legal representation to fight your case on your behalf.

Whether the goal is to reduce a sentence or eliminate charges for a crime you did not commit, we will never stop fighting for your best interests.
How Does the Government Classify a Felony?
A felony is a means of classifying the most serious types of criminal activity. Among crimes, you could organize them as infractions, then misdemeanors, finally followed by a felony. A felony can then be classified as Class E to A, increasing in severity and sentence.
The federal government classifies a felony as any crime that warrants at least one year of jail time.
Because the punishment for a felony is so severe, the court proceedings are held to the highest standard and are strictly observed by a very carefully selected jury of peers and will almost assuredly take substantial time and multiple hearings to reach a verdict.
WHY RETAIN A FELONY DEFENSE ATTORNEY?
When it comes to criminal defense, you can count on likely facing the maximum sentence if you don't have the appropriate defense and counsel on your side.
Though you have the right to a public defender, and we feel that our peers get a bad reputation, public defenders work for many clients simultaneously and likely cannot give your case the full attention it requires.

Jeff saved my life at one point in time. I lived in a tiny town and was set up by the police chief because I stepped on the wrong people's toes. The police totally fabricated their story and used a witness that didn't even exist.
