I realize that being arrested and charged with a felony or misdemeanor crime is one of the most stressful events in a person's life.  Aside from the potential for jail or prison time, being placed on probation or being required to pay huge fines and restitution, a criminal conviction can result in many other serious consequences.  People charged with, or convicted of criminal offenses in Arizona are at risk of losing jobs, being barred from future employment opportunities, losing state licenses and certificates, being denied housing and having a criminal record.  During the last twenty years, I have represented thousands of people charged with marijuana and drug offenses, violent crimes, burglary, domestic violence and probation violations in Tempe, Mesa, Scottsdale, Phoenix, Gilbert and other cities throughout Maricopa and Pinal counties.  My clients can reach me directly by phone, e-mail or text at any time with questions or to talk about their case.  Additionally, all of my education, training and experience as a police officer, detective, and felony prosecutor  will be utilized to get you the best result possible.
