Attorney Justine A. Harris Practice Area
Criminal Defense
The Criminal Defense practice area focuses on representing individuals accused of committing crimes, ranging from misdemeanors to serious felonies. Attorneys in this field defend clients against charges such as theft, assault, drug offenses, and white-collar crimes, working to protect their rights and ensure a fair trial. Criminal defense lawyers analyze the evidence, negotiate plea deals, and develop strategies to challenge the prosecution’s case. They may also advocate for reduced sentences or alternative sentencing options if a conviction occurs. This practice area requires a deep understanding of criminal law, procedures, and constitutional rights, as well as the ability to navigate complex legal systems. The primary goal is to achieve the best possible outcome for clients, whether through acquittal, dismissal of charges, or minimized penalties.
