My experience as a Placer County criminal attorney has proven, over and over, that it is essential to:
- Avoid incriminating yourself and do not answer questions. This is your right! Avoid answering questions regarding your involvement in a crime by sending the police a proper assertion of rights letter. I routinely provide this service.
- Preserve favorable evidence. I act quickly to preserve evidence helpful to your case. Determining what evidence is available and if and how it should be gathered and preserved requires immediate investigation.
- Avoid having charges filed. I regularly disclose defense information to the prosecution before charges are filed. This frequently causes the prosecutor to file less serious charges, or to “decline” filing charges altogether.
In many cases, rehabilitation, community service, home confinement, or an educational alternative can be ordered in place of jail time.
Additionally, it is often possible to avoid a criminal record. When one cannot be avoided, I prefer negotiating an arrangement with the court in advance to allow you to clean up your record after an agreed-upon period of time. This is important in today’s job market, where a criminal record can be devastating.
Though it’s hard to see beyond your immediate circumstances, I help you see the big picture. Together we can create a plan for you to regain your mental and physical health and improve your family relationships—and I can provide insight and understanding so you can avoid criminal charges in the future.

I could have easily gone to prison for my offenses. Yet, as it stands now, I have to take a class twice a week—it’s nothing short of remarkable. If this seems overly laudatory, if I seem like I’m overstating, if you’re suspicious that I’m his cousin, friend, or colleague trying to make him appear to be a miracle worker, I emphatically assure you I’m not. This guy basically saved my life, and I owed him this testimonial.
