California Criminal Defense Practice

I have the experience and commitment to vigorously represent individuals charged with various misdemeanors and felonies, such as:

• Traffic tickets: I am skilled in helping truck drivers and other drivers fight speeding tickets, license suspension violations, and other traffic tickets.
• Commercial driver tickets: My experience handling speeding tickets and other traffic violations for those with a commercial driver's license (CDL) can help preserve their livelihood.
• DUI/DWI: As an experienced DUI lawyer, I work to mitigate consequences resulting from a drunk driving violation. In addition, I handle DMV/administrative hearings and multiple offense DUI charges.
• Domestic violence: I challenge allegations of spousal abuse, domestic abuse, or domestic battery and I challenge restraining orders.
• Juvenile crimes: I represent minors in the Fresno County juvenile court system charged with sexual assault, DUI, theft, assault, and other juvenile offenses in California.
• Theft crimes: I represent clients charged for shoplifting, burglary, armed robbery, and other theft-related offenses.
• Drug charges: I work to suppress evidence and minimize penalties for drug charges, such as drug possession, drug sale, drug distribution, and other drug cases.
• Gang affiliation: I have the experience and understanding to challenge gang affiliation charges associated with other felony criminal offenses.
• Sex crimes: I provide strong and confidential representation for individuals arrested for child molestation, statutory rape, sexual assault, and other sex offenses.
• Violent crimes: I vigorously represent individuals charged for serious crimes such as murder, homicide, shaken baby deaths, manslaughter, or assault with a deadly weapon.
