Frequently Asked Questions
-
What Should I Do After an Arrest?Whether this was your first arrest or you have had previous run-ins with the law, the time following an arrest can be confusing. If you have been arrested, comply with the police officers to the best of your ability. Arguing your case at this point may not be helpful in the long run. You are encouraged to take advantage of your right to remain silent and your right to an attorney. Even if you are completely innocent of all charges, what you say could be twisted and held against you. For this reason, it is best to allow a legal professional to walk with you throughout this process.
-
What Penalties Could I Be Facing?The penalties for criminal offenses in Nevada will differ depending on the specific crime. Felony offenses are more serious than misdemeanors and so will carry with it more serious consequences. Misdemeanors can result in up to one year in county jail and a $1,000 fine. A felony could result in time in state prison instead of county jail and higher fines. If you are convicted of a sex crime, you will be placed on the sex offender registry permanently as well as face time behind bars. If you are facing DUI charges, you are also running the risk of losing your driver's license.
-
Can I Challenge My Dui?One of the most common offenses is DUI If you were accused of drunk driving, you need to be aware that there are multiple ways in which to defend yourself. I am certified by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration to conduct field sobriety tests. If there were any errors in your field sobriety test, I have the training and experience necessary to detect these errors and so challenge the evidence against you. Also, if you were the victim of an illegal search and seizure, this could help in your defense.

How We Can Help You
You may have been arrested for drug possession after Las Vegas police found marijuana in your possession or in your vehicle or have been arrested for an alleged domestic violence incident. Although you may assume that you have no options but to accept a plea bargain or may feel that you have no chance of avoiding a conviction, this does not have to be so.
Criminal defense representation by a skilled attorney, such as myself, can help you avoid maximum penalties or possibly a conviction altogether. What if law enforcement did not have grounds to conduct that search and seizure? What if they did not have a search warrant or actually acted in direct violation of your constitutional rights when they searched your vehicle and found the drugs? This may be used in your favor by filing a motion to suppress this evidence from being used against you.
