AREAS OF PRACTICE
CRIMINAL DEFENSE
We serve clients throughout Beaver County, Allegheny County and the surrounding counties in Western Pennsylvania. The multiple types of cases we handle include, but are not limited to the following:
Although a civil matter in nature, Protection From Abuse (PFA) Orders can have lasting effects on one's personal life and reputation. Although some of these Orders can be expunged (taken off of one's record), PFA Orders can carry significant consequences for gun owners and for some employment. In addition, we handle license suspension matters. Certain DUI offenses and drug offenses carry mandatory suspensions which can limit one's transportation for work. Our office strives to find alternatives which allow a person to keep his or her job.
In many cases, simple misunderstandings and momentary lapses in judgment can lead to criminal charges requiring legal representation. Our office is dedicated to representing those charged with criminal offenses and those who may be under investigation for a crime or are being questioned by law enforcement. One of the most important calls you can make is to my office if you are faced with charges or the potential for criminal charges.

personal injury
My office represents people who are injured in a variety of accident cases including automobile accidents, fall downs and dog bites. Injury cases are more complex than they may appear and there are significant rights you have that must be preserved. Injuries and accidents often impair one's ability to continue working and routinely result in large medical bills. The insurance company for the person at fault makes it a priority to contact injury victims to obtain statements and other information to sideline your case. It is very critical that an injury victim does not speak to the other driver's insurance company and does not make any statements without legal representation. The best thing an injury victim can do is to call my office.
