Criminal Defense

An arrest can turn your life upside down in an instant. Fear, uncertainty, and stress often follow, and the consequences of a criminal charge can affect your freedom, reputation, career, and family. At Lake Shore Legal, we understand what you are facing and we are here to help.

 

From the moment you contact our office, our attorneys work to protect your rights, explain your options, and guide you through the criminal justice process with clarity and confidence. We believe every client deserves strong, personalized representation and a defense strategy built around their unique situation. You will never be treated as just another case.

​

Lake Shore Legal represents individuals facing a wide range of criminal charges, including Operating Under the Influence (OUI) of alcohol or drugs, drug possession and distribution offenses, firearms and weapons charges, theft and property crimes, violent offenses, probation violations, and serious motor vehicle offenses such as operating with a suspended or revoked license, negligent or reckless operation, and leaving the scene of an accident. No matter the charge, we approach every case with the same level of care, preparation, and determination.

​

Law enforcement and prosecutors must follow strict legal and constitutional requirements when investigating and arresting individuals. Our attorneys carefully examine every aspect of your case, from the initial police encounter to the evidence and charging decisions to identify weaknesses, procedural errors, and opportunities to challenge the prosecution’s case. When your future is at stake, details matter.

​

Criminal law is constantly changing. Lake Shore Legal stays current on evolving court decisions and legal standards throughout the Commonwealth to ensure our clients receive informed, effective, and aggressive representation. Our goal is simple: to achieve the best possible outcome while minimizing the impact a criminal charge has on your life.
