MEMPHIS CRIMINAL DEFENSE
PRACTICE
AREAS
Criminal Defense
If you are charged with a crime, your life could be permanently changed. Having knowledgeable representation can help you avoid jail time and having a criminal record. If you are charged with a crime in Tennessee, call us for a free consultation.
White Collar Defense
White collar criminal cases must be handled differently from typical crimes. With ever-expanding laws and stiffer penalties going into effect, state prosecutors are armed with a plethora of weapons to place individuals and businesses under scrutiny. My prior experience as a law clerk in the White Collar Crimes Unit of the Shelby County District Attorney’s Office allows me to effectively advocate for those charged with white collar crimes.
Criminal Appeals
Challenging a conviction after trial can be daunting. Having an experienced attorney to write your brief and argue your case can be the difference between staying in prison and getting a new trial.
Post Conviction
Having an experienced attorney argue your Post Conviction Petition for Relief can make the difference between serving your sentence and getting a new trial. We will meticulously review every issue of fact and law and provide you with zealous representation.
Asset Forfeiture
Have you been charged with a crime? No? It doesn’t matter in asset forfeiture cases. In the State of Tennessee, the government can seize your property without a hearing and without any criminal charges.
If a state trooper, sheriff, or other law enforcement agent has taken your money, car, or valuable property, you only have a limited time to act. From the time you receive the Notice of Seizure, you only have 30 days to file a claim with the Tennessee Department of Safety & Homeland Security to contest the government’s taking of your property.
Civil Litigation
Filing a lawsuit is a daunting task. Your case may go to trial, but many disputes are handled outside of the courtroom. Having a career litigator on your side will ensure you get the best outcome whether settled out of court or at trial.
