If you are arrested pulled over, or charged with a criminal offense, your life could change forever. A conviction can lead to jail or imprisonment, fines, and a criminal record that can follow you for the rest of your life. In any criminal case, whether a misdemeanor or felony, it is important that you exercise your right to remain silent – and your right to an attorney.
Your defense lawyer is the one person that stands between you and the full force of the law. At Mountain Law, we can thoroughly review your case, discuss your available legal options, and develop an aggressive and effective strategy to protect your rights and best interests. Our legal team, including a full time investigator, former prosecutor, and bilingual staff members, provide a client-centered approach that gets to the heart of your matter. We’ll take the time to understand the unique circumstances behind your arrest and build a solution that anticipates the prosecution’s case against you. Our considerable experience and zealous advocacy have yielded thousands of positive results, from reduced charges to outright dismissals.
