Aggressive Defense against Criminal Charges

We understand the hardship that a jail term or prison sentence places on you and your family, and make every attempt to avoid the worst penalties. After assessing the case against you, Litman Law Firm, P.C. can advise you of the likely outcome, discuss your legal options, and pursue the best course of action:

We seek to have charges dropped or evidence suppressed based on police errors or violation of clients' rights.
We are skilled at bargaining with prosecutors for favorable plea agreements with lesser penalties, such as probation, restitution, treatment, or fines.
If your case goes to trial, we will vigorously challenge probable cause for traffic stops, witness accounts, validity of coerced confessions, motives of informants, and other evidence.

Addressing Past Convictions

Many of our clients come to us because they received poor legal advice in the past that is now creating severe problems. Some were represented by public defenders who did not understand the immigration implications of pleading guilty to certain crimes. Others were given wrong counsel from a notaria (notario publico) who was not qualified (or authorized) to provide legal advice.

If you were convicted and now face deportation, license suspension, or enhanced penalties because of a new criminal charge, contact experienced criminal defense lawyer Michael Litman. He will try to re-open your original case and enable you to go to trial or negotiate a more favorable plea agreement.
