Dedicated to Criminal Defense in the San Francisco Bay Area

- I Can Help -
I represent those accused of State and Federal felonies and misdemeanors. Including, Domestic Violence, Drug Offenses, Mortgage Fraud, Credit/Check Fraud, Embezzlement, Sexual Assault, Sex Offenses, Weapons Offenses, Burglary, Robbery and Theft, Probation Violations, Strike Offenses, Computer Crimes, White-collar Crimes, and Business and Professions Code violations.


- Everyone Deserves Respect -
Criminal accusations can be devastating to your personal and professional life - know and understand your rights. I provide aggressive and quality representation at every stage of the process. The criminal justice system is intimidating and overwhelming if you are unfamiliar with it. I take the mystery out of the process and ensure you understand your options so you can make informed decisions. I make sure the prosecution understands that you are member of the community and not just another body in the criminal justice system.


- Clear Your Record -
Criminal convictions can have consequences that affect your immigration status, right to vote, own firearms, obtain or renew professional licenses, or travel outside of the United States. You can petition the Court to relieve you of some or all of the penalties of your conviction. I handle expungements, certificates of rehabilitation, requests for pardon, and motions to seal and destroy records.
