Felony Charges

Felony charges in federal or state court are the most serious type of criminal charges. These include offenses like federal conspiracy, drug trafficking, weapons violations, and violent crimes. A felony conviction can lead to long prison terms, loss of your right to vote, deportation, and even a lifetime impact on your civil rights and professional licenses.

Our criminal defense team works hard to protect you from severe penalties like the lengthy federal mandatory-minimum prison sentences or state prison. Every felony criminal defense case needs a strong legal strategy backed by knowledge of the criminal justice system and trial advocacy techniques.

DUI and Drug Offenses

DUI charges and drug offenses are among the most common criminal law issues in San Diego. Driving under the influence, especially when there is a high blood alcohol concentration or a failed blood test, can result in license suspension, heavy fines, and possible jail time. Drug crimes like drug possession, drug charges involving controlled substances, or serious federal drug trafficking cases linked to the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) can escalate quickly.

Many people charged in these cases do not understand the legal jargon or the chain of custody rules that law enforcement must follow. We break it down and fight hard to protect your future and challenge the arrest, whether the issue was a traffic stop or a search incident to a lawful arrest.

Misdemeanor Charges

Misdemeanor charges may seem minor, but they can still carry harsh consequences. These include petty theft, DUI offenses, simple drug possession, traffic violations, and even violating a restraining order. While the punishment for misdemeanors is less than that of felonies, you can still face jail time, community service, house arrest, and lasting damage to your record.

Our criminal defense team understands how California criminal defense issues affect real people, and we know how to push back against weak probable cause, illegal searches, or flawed legal processes. Our goal is to keep your record clean and your rights protected.

Violent Crimes

Violent crimes are taken very seriously in the legal system. Charges like criminal threats, sexual assault, domestic violence, and assault with a deadly weapon often come with steep penalties and aggressive prosecution. Domestic violence charges can lead to a restraining order that affects your access to your home, your children, and your job.

If you're facing these charges, our criminal defense attorneys bring relentless defense and trial experience to the courtroom, backed by peer nominations, independent research evaluations, and a clear understanding of both state and federal statutes.
