A felony charge can mean serious consequences, including a lengthy prison sentence. If you have been charged with a violent crime such as murder, manslaughter, armed robbery or aggravated assault you need to secure the representation of a criminal defense attorney as soon as possible.

Protect Your Rights: Do Not Talk To Law Enforcement
Law enforcement will frequently try to convince, or even coerce you into giving a statement with false promises of favorable treatment. The most important thing to remember if confronted by law enforcement is to say and do nothing. You are never required to give evidence or testimony against yourself. Whatever information the police want can always be given through your attorney at a later date, but only if it is beneficial to you.
Your case is important to you. When experience counts.
