Criminal Defense Attorney Fees
Misdemeanor Defense
Fees vary depending on the circumstances of each case.
Misdemeanor cases can involve a wide range of charges and legal issues. Our fees are reasonable and competitive, and we believe you should receive quality legal representation that reflects the value of the services you are paying for.
Fees may be structured as a flat fee in appropriate cases and generally depend on factors such as the nature of the charges, number of counts, complexity of the case, court appearances required, and other circumstances.
Warrant recalls are included in appropriate misdemeanor representation. Expungements and probation violation hearings are separate legal services and may involve additional fees.
Cases involving multiple charges, probation violations, DUI allegations, or related administrative matters such as an APS hearing may require additional legal work and may therefore have a higher fee.
Call our office to discuss your case and receive a personalized fee quote. Every case is different, and we strive to provide reasonable, competitive fees based on the specific circumstances of your matter.
Felony Defense
Felony cases require individualized representation and case evaluation.
Legal fees for felony defense depend on numerous factors, including the seriousness and complexity of the allegations, number of charges, anticipated court appearances, investigation required, probation issues, and the amount of legal work involved.
Serious felony cases, cases involving multiple counts, and cases involving probation violations may require additional legal services and may therefore involve higher fees.
We believe in providing reasonable and competitive legal fees while giving clients a clear understanding of the value and scope of the representation they are considering.
Call our office for a personalized fee quote. Because no two felony cases are exactly alike, we evaluate each case individually before determining the appropriate fee arrangement.
Free Initial Case Evaluation & Consultations
We offer a complimentary initial case evaluation for the first 15 minutes to discuss the general circumstances of your situation and determine how we may be able to help.
If you require legal advice, strategy, or an in-depth evaluation of your legal options, the matter becomes a paid legal consultation. Our time, experience, and legal knowledge have value, and we charge a reasonable consultation fee for providing legal advice and reviewing your circumstances.
If you ultimately hire our office for representation, the consultation fee will be credited toward your attorney fees.
Call today to discuss your case. We offer reasonable, competitive fees and believe in providing clients with meaningful legal representation and value for the fees they pay. The right fee depends on the specific circumstances of your case, so contact our office for more information about your particular matter.
This version avoids advertising a specific starting price, which gives you more flexibility while still communicating that your fees are reasonable, competitive, and based on the value and complexity of the representation. It also gives prospective clients a clear reason to call rather than simply displaying a number and leaving the page.
