Knowledgeable Attorneys for Your Case
Imprisonment. Fines. Forfeiture of civil liberties. These are just a few of the significant impacts a felony conviction can have on one's life. When such serious consequences are on the line, you need an aggressive attorney who is familiar with state and federal criminal procedure in your corner to make sure your rights are protected since your future depends on it.
Serious Advocacy for Serious Charges
In Ohio, felonies are generally classified in five degrees — with first-degree being the most serious — while some serious crimes, such as murder, are unclassified. Prison terms for classified felonies range from six months to 11 years, while the penalties for unclassified felonies range from 15 years to death by lethal injection.
Ohio also imposes mandatory prison terms in some felony cases and levies fines of up to $25,000. Ohio is also known for its tough stance on drug crimes and complicated sentencing framework.
With so much at stake in a felony case, you need an attorney who's willing to fully investigate your case, prepare the best defense strategy possible and make every effort to get the charges against you dismissed or reduced in severity.

Federal Criminal Defense — It's a Different Landscape
While felony criminal offenses prosecuted under state law are extremely serious, felony criminal offenses prosecuted under federal law are exceptionally serious. Federal felony offenses are more severe, can have a greater impact on your future and are driven by law enforcement officers, prosecutors and judges who are tough and unyielding.
The landscape in a federal case is also entirely different than it is in a state felony case. Not only are the courthouses, judges and prosecutors different, but the entire process underlying the system is different. Attorneys who practice in federal court must be specifically authorized to do so — not just any lawyer can represent a client in federal court.
