What you are facing deserves a careful, fact-driven defense.
A felony allegation can threaten freedom, employment, professional licensing, family stability, and reputation. Early decisions may affect bond conditions, evidence preservation, negotiations, and trial strategy.
Phil brings experience from both sides of the courtroom to the evaluation of serious charges. The work begins with the charging instrument and continues through the State’s evidence, witness accounts, forensic material, enhancements, and possible defenses.
What should be examined
The important questions are found in the details.
- Bond conditions and pretrial restrictions
- Statements, identifications, and witness credibility
- Search warrants and digital evidence
- Forensic and expert testimony
- Prior convictions and punishment enhancements
- Trial preparation and sentencing exposure
Phil’s approach
Preparation before promises.
Investigate contradictions and missing evidence
Challenge unreliable or unlawfully obtained evidence when supported
Prepare for negotiation and trial from an informed position
Common questions
Clear answers at the beginning matter.
Does a felony arrest mean I will be convicted?
No. An accusation is not a conviction. The State must prove every required element, and each case depends on its evidence and procedural history.
Should I discuss the allegation with investigators?
You should speak with a lawyer before deciding whether to make a statement. Even an explanation intended to help can have consequences.
