We handle criminal cases from the investigation stage through trial and appeals, protecting your rights throughout the process.

  └─ Scope of Criminal Law Practice

Criminal law covers crimes against the state and sets the rules for how police investigate, prosecutors charge, and courts try these cases.

Criminal defense isn't just about showing up in court. It requires careful legal strategy at every stage, from the moment police start investigating to the final appeal to protect your rights and ensure fair treatment under the law.
