Providing Criminal Defense For Misdemeanors and Felonies In Ohio
As a criminal defense attorney, I founded Palmer Legal Defense in Columbus because I know and understand that good people can find themselves in bad situations. I don’t want one bad decision to destroy the rest of your life. I am attorney Steve Palmer, and if you are being investigated for a crime or have been accused or charged with a misdemeanor or felony in state or federal court, I can help protect your rights, your freedom and your future.
Legal Guidance And Advice For Criminal Charges
I have dedicated my legal career to defending those accused of crimes. If you are in trouble with the law, I have seen it all and can offer guidance and reassurance that whatever your situation is, it does not have to define you. I defend clients who are facing all kinds of criminal charges, including:
- Misdemeanors, traffic offenses and driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol (DUI) or operating a vehicle while intoxicated (OVI)
- Drug charges and crimes in state and federal criminal court, including illegal usage, possession, dealing, distribution, manufacturing and trafficking
- Cyber, computer and internet crimes
- White collar criminal activity, such as tax evasion, racketeering, embezzlement, money laundering and fraud
- Domestic assault and violence
- Child abuse crimes, including child sexual abuse and child pornography
- Violent crimes, including sexual assault, carjacking, manslaughter and murder
While my firm has the capacity to handle high-profile criminal defense cases, I take every one of my cases just as seriously. If your case requires an independent investigation or an expert consultant, I have been practicing criminal defense in central Ohio for more than 25 years. I have the resources and network to thoroughly defend your case.
Defending Minors And Juveniles
When a minor gets in trouble with the law, it is an opportunity to learn a lesson at a young age and make changes that could alter the course of a young person’s life. When I assist juveniles in juvenile or criminal court, I fight hard to make sure that one bad choice doesn’t have a negative impact on that minor’s entire future. I seek out rehabilitative and alternate options whenever possible, no matter what court my clients are appearing before, especially for first-time offenders.
Post-Conviction Relief And Appeals
Sometimes clients come to me and need assistance to fix the past. Whether your case is eligible for an appeal or perhaps you have made changes in your life and are seeking to expunge a criminal record, I can help you try to right past wrongs.
