Our Criminal Defense Services

- Felonies. These are the most serious of all criminal charges, ranging from aggravated assault to drug dealing and trafficking, other violent crimes as well as certain theft and white-collar crimes.
- Murder. This is the most serious offense you can face which can lead to life imprisonment or a prison sentence of up to 20 years.
- Domestic Violence. Alleged crimes against family or household members or intimate partners are taken very seriously by the Pennsylvania courts. Our firm defends against all alleged violations of domestic abuse laws.
- Sexual Assault. Rape and sexual assault laws in Pennsylvania carry severe penalties that can include mandatory sex offender registration.
- Homicide. Whether it involves vehicular manslaughter, involuntary or voluntary manslaughter, or murder, homicide allegations are among the most life-changing of all charges.
- White Collar Crimes. These are generally nonviolent offenses that can range from various types of fraud to embezzlement, identity theft, forgery, and more. They encompass misdemeanors to state or federal felonies, depending on the nature and extent of the crime and its damage to alleged victims.
- Federal Crimes. Arrests and charges at the federal level generally top the list in their severity of consequences. Prosecuted by federal agencies such as the FBI, they commonly carry penalties far harsher than those imposed by state courts.
