Known for his relentless advocacy, Ernest has successfully defended clients against serious charges including homicide, vehicular homicide, rape, and DUI/OUI.

Ernest’s dedication to criminal defense is deeply personal. In 2001, he overcame a struggle with alcohol addiction, an experience that gave him unique insight into the fears and uncertainties his clients face. This personal journey fuels his empathetic, client-centered approach, allowing him to connect with clients on a deeper level.

Ernest’s practice is comprehensive and trauma-informed, addressing not only criminal legal issues but also underlying factors like substance abuse and mental health. He and his team view each client as a whole person, offering emotional support during challenging times. Their approach aims to help clients make lasting positive changes in their lives.

In the courtroom, Ernest is a strategic and relentless litigator, known for securing favorable outcomes even in the most complex cases.
