Criminal Defense
Our criminal defense practice protects clients' rights across Connecticut, handling cases from initial investigation through trial. We specialize in constitutional challenges, evidence suppression, and strategic negotiations to minimize consequences. With over 30 years of experience, we defend against all felony and misdemeanor charges while maintaining client confidentiality and providing 24/7 accessibility for urgent matters.
DUI/DWI Defense
We defend Connecticut DUI/DWI charges through technical analysis of breathalyzer results, field sobriety tests, and procedural violations. Our approach includes challenging evidence validity, negotiating alternative sentencing programs, and minimizing license suspension impacts. We represent clients facing first-time offenses through repeat violations with aggressive, science-based defense strategies.
Domestic Violence
Our domestic violence defense focuses on protecting clients' rights while addressing complex legal and personal implications. We challenge evidence credibility, navigate protective order modifications, and work with specialized counselors to achieve case dismissals or reduced charges. Our approach balances courtroom advocacy with practical solutions for clients' personal circumstances.
Drug Crimes
We defend drug-related charges including possession, trafficking, and manufacturing. Our strategy examines search and seizure legality, chain-of-custody issues, and laboratory analysis challenges. We work to suppress illegally obtained evidence and negotiate alternative resolutions like drug education programs to avoid criminal convictions and license consequences.
Traffic Violations
Our traffic violation defense protects clients' driving privileges through technical challenges to citations and negotiated resolutions. We handle speeding, reckless driving, and license suspension cases, focusing on minimizing insurance impacts and employment consequences, particularly for commercial drivers facing career-threatening charges.
