Understanding and Defending Your Rights
When you are facing criminal accusations, it is important to understand the charges against you. Were you charged with a misdemeanor or felony? What court will hear your case? Who are the prosecutors and judges involved?
Working closely with clients throughout the process is essential for two primary reasons. It allows attorney Denise Kirby to learn as much as possible about your story, enabling her to better present to the judge and jury. It also gives her the opportunity to help you understand your options and the possible ramifications of each.
We defend clients who are facing a range of criminal matters, including:
- Traffic violations, including speeding and reckless driving
- Driving Under the Influence (DUI) / Driving While Intoxicated (DWI)
- Drug crimes, including possession, selling, manufacturing and trafficking
- Criminal non-support
- Violent offenses, including assault
- White collar crimes, including fraud and embezzlement
- Property crimes, including theft and burglary
- Weapons charges
- Violations of probation or parole
When we work with clients, we thoroughly investigate the charges, preparing every case as thought it will go to trial. This allows us to aggressively defend your rights in the courtroom, or to strategically negotiate with prosecutors to have charges dismissed or reduced.
Do not let criminal charges ruin your future. We can help you get your life back. Contact us online or call 816-221-3691 to schedule your telephone consultation. If it is necessary, we can meet you in the jail.
