It May Be Your First Time Going Through This, But It Isn’t Mine
When you are charged with a crime, you need an attorney who has seen it all. I have dedicated my law practice, Palmer Legal Defense, to defending clients against charges from misdemeanors to felonies, in federal as well as state courts. I will put my decades of experience and my skill in the courtroom to work for you.
Being thrown into the criminal justice system is disorienting and stressful. For first-time offenders, it can be a scary experience; for repeat offenders, it can mean more serious jail time. Your attorney should be a calming presence who gives you the guidance that you need to make informed decisions.
I Will Treat You With Respect
I have been practicing criminal law long enough to know that anyone can make a bad choice that throws them into the justice system. I believe no one should be judged by their worst act. To me, criminal defense isn’t just about representing you in court; it’s also about helping you solve your problems, even those that are not necessarily legal matters.
I have a vast network of experts, investigators and consultants to meet the needs of each individual case and client. If your case is outside of my legal practice area, I will turn to these contacts to help you find the right person to assist you.
Put My Experience On Your Side
I have practiced in courts all over the state of Ohio and in federal courts nationwide. My knowledge and success have garnered the attention of other criminal defense attorneys who turn to me for consultations on winning courtroom strategies.
I have defended clients in thousands of cases and countless jury trials for crimes ranging from DUIs to high visibility, complex federal cases. I know that no two cases are the same – and neither are your needs. Call me at 614-224-6142 to discuss how I can help with a personalized defense strategy. You can also reach me by email.
