About Company:
We're a family-owned boutique criminal, DUI, and traffic defense firm based in Shaker Heights, practicing in Federal and State courts throughout Northeast Ohio. But more than that, we're counselors, problem solvers, protectors, and fierce advocates who stand between clients and a system that is geared towards achieving convictions rather than justice.



We are committed to treating clients with dignity and providing unparalleled customer service - we see people, not their alleged crimes. We treat roles with reverence - shepherding clients through what may be their lowest point and helping them through to the other side is an honor and privilege that takes not only legal skills but empathy. We accomplish this with a brand of compassionate straight talk - providing clients stellar legal work, while also recognizing the humanity in all of us.
