Criminal Law & DUI Defense

Too many times, clients wait until their court date to begin the search for legal representation. Often, by then, the opportunity to stop a case in its tracks disappears. Most people don’t know that police officers write their reports the same day, or within a few days of an incident. The officer then presents that report to a district attorney or local prosecutor, who makes the decision about whether to file charges, which charges to file, or whether to reject the case entirely. Lives can be ripped apart when only one side of the story is presented, and when charges are filed based on incomplete information.

If contacted early enough, many times, Alexandra is able to call the police officer and prosecutor while they are drafting their reports, or making their decisions, and can make sure YOUR side of the story is heard. YOUR facts may completely change the prosecutor’s perspective on the case, leading to lesser charges, or perhaps even a full dismissal (sometimes called a DA Reject).
