ACCUSED OF A CRIME / DUI
If you are incarcerated, have been arrested or charged with a crime, or are under investigation in connection with your employment or another matter, it is critical that you seek effective legal counsel to avoid jeopardizing your rights and your freedoms.
Our attorneys have years of experience representing individuals faced with a wide range of criminal charges. Having an attorney behind you who knows the process can be invaluable when facing criminal charges.
At Hoppe & Martin, we work aggressively to develop and present the best possible defense for our clients. As a result of our preparedness and willingness to go to trial when we believe that the Prosecutor does not have a case, or is overreaching, we have been successful in many cases in getting charges reduced or even dropped.
However, we also know that there are times when the prudent approach is to work out the best deal possible. In those cases, because of the experience that our attorneys have, they are familiar with which prosecutor has the ‘real’ authority to settle a case, and what kinds of arguments are likely to appeal to that prosecutor - for rapid resolution.
Juvenile Matters
When a juvenile (minor or person under the age of 18) has been arrested for a crime, there are additional issues at stake. Not only is there the potential penalty for the crime, but there may be long-term consequences. Hoppe & Martin attorneys have handled numerous juvenile criminal matters and are very familiar with the issues involved.
Our focus is on getting the charges dismissed or withdrawn, if at all possible. However, if that is not possible, we work hard to obtain the best results, so that any long-term impact the charges and penalties will be reduced. Remember, improper handling of a juvenile criminal matter can lead to a permanent criminal record – carried throughout adulthood.
Don’t limit the freedoms and livelihood of your child or loved one – call us today on tel. (610) 444-2001 to learn how to defend and protect the rights of juveniles facing criminal issues.
Post Conviction
If you have been convicted, our attorneys are well able to pursue all remedies available to challenge a conviction - including filing post-trial motions, appeals and PCRAs.
