Criminal Defense
No one plans to get arrested, but if you do, you can count on the St. John Law Group to compassionately and expertly guide you through your legal options.
Our founder, Quita St. John has represented thousands of clients, and she knows that everyone has a different goal for the outcome of their case. While no attorney can ever guarantee a particular result, we know that it is important to understand the outcome you hope to achieve, regardless of the charge or evidence against you.
Your goals might be:
· No jail time
· Dismissal of certain charges
· An infraction
· No immigration consequences
· Retaining your driver’s license
· Taking your case to trial
· No adverse effect on your professional license
· Lifting a no-contact order
· Seeing your children
This is your case, and you need to be informed. We will explain the steps of the criminal system as many times as you need. With experience in thousands of cases over almost twenty years of practice, we can tell you what to expect.
The St. John Law Group will secure all the evidence in the case against you from the prosecution. We will review this evidence in detail, conduct interviews, and consult with experts. We will tell you about any consequences of a plea or a guilty finding and any potential outcomes of a jury trial so that any decisions you make in your case will be well-informed.
