Practice Areas

Connecticut DUI and Motor Vehicle Violations

  • The Stakes: DUI and serious motor vehicle charges in Connecticut can carry both criminal consequences and administrative penalties through the Department of Motor Vehicles. A conviction or license suspension can disrupt your ability to work, care for your family, and move forward with your life.

  • Our Approach: We examine every part of the stop and arrest, including the legality of the traffic stop, field sobriety testing, chemical testing procedures, and whether law enforcement followed required protocols.

Drug Offenses and Possession Charges

  • The Stakes: Drug charges in Connecticut range from simple possession to more serious allegations involving sale, intent to distribute, or manufacturing. Even a first-time arrest can create lasting consequences if not handled properly.

  • Our Approach: We closely analyze searches, seizures, warrants, statements, and possession theories to identify weaknesses in the prosecution’s case. When appropriate, we also pursue diversionary options that may lead to dismissal.

Assault, Domestic Violence, and Protective Order Cases

  • The Stakes: Domestic violence-related charges in Connecticut often move quickly and can result in immediate court involvement, strict protective orders, and serious restrictions affecting your home, family, and daily life.

  • Our Approach: We act promptly to address protective order issues, defend against the allegations, and work to minimize the disruption to your life while preparing a strong defense based on the facts.

Property Crimes and Theft Offenses

  • The Stakes: Charges such as larceny, shoplifting, burglary, and trespass can have long-term consequences for employment, professional licensing, and background checks. These cases are often more defensible than they first appear, especially where intent or identification is in dispute.

  • Our Approach: We work to resolve eligible cases through restitution-based strategies, diversionary programs, or direct challenges to the prosecution’s evidence at trial.
