• Criminal Law

    Whether you’re facing a minor charge or a life-changing accusation, I’m here to stand between you and the system, fighting for your rights every step of the way. From misdemeanors to felonies, no case is too small to take seriously or too big to tackle.

  • DCFS Cases

    Few things are more terrifying than facing a DCFS investigation. If child protective services are knocking on your door, you don’t have to face them alone. I fight to keep families together, challenge wrongful allegations, and ensure your rights as a parent are protected every step of the way.

  • Other Services

    The legal system doesn’t always fit neatly into categories. In addition to criminal defense and DCFS representation, I handle a variety of legal matters. Whether you’ve got a unique situation or aren’t sure where your case fits, if I can’t help you directly, I’ll do everything I can to point you in the right direction.

 FAQs

  • Absolutely. Innocence doesn’t guarantee that charges will go away. The justice system doesn’t always get it right, and you need a strong defense to make sure your side of the story is heard.

  • Yes, early intervention is crucial in child protection cases. Whether you’re under investigation, facing a court case, or trying to regain custody, I fight to protect your parental rights.

  • You have the right to remain silent and the right to an attorney. Use them! Police officers are trained to get information - even if they seem friendly. Always ask for a lawyer before answering questions.

  • Not all cases go to trial - most are resolved through negotiation, dismissal, or plea agreements. Every case is analyzed through a trial perspective so we’re always ready for the best possible outcome.

  • Every case is different. I offer consultations to discuss your situation and pricing options. The cost of a defense lawyer is an investment in your future - and often, the cost of not having one is much higher.

  • I don’t just handle cases, I fight for people. I know the system and the stakes. I treat every case the way I would want mine treated - clear expectations and communication every step of the way.
