Criminal Defense

WE SET YOU UP TO WEATHER THE STORM

We know that when someone is charged with a crime, they are facing one of the most serious challenges a person can face. 

We understand that you are facing the loss of more than just the time you spend in Court or the jail time you are facing. 

When your livelihood is on the line, we have the experience to mitigate the consequences at a minimum.  When there is no choice but to fight for your life, we have the trial skills to face down the State and win over jurors to your side.  No matter how large or small a matter may be in the eyes of the world at-large we know it is a central issue of your well-being and will treat it with seriousness.  Call us for Class B or C felonies and any gross misdemeanor or misdemeanor charges.

Criminal consultation at the Oak & Paik firm means an assessment of what in your life you need to protect.  Your right to drive, to own a firearm, to be in contact with a loved one, or to keep a job are common needs of our clients that we protect through a trial-oriented approach to your criminal defense.  We will review the discovery with you and advise you realistically from the point of view of an expert in creating reasonable doubt at trial.  We will advise you on whether an offer is one you should say yes too, and if there is no such offer, we will attack the State’s case from every available angle.  We will show the jury that you are a human being who deserves respect, dignity, and a chance to be heard.

Whatever happens in your case, we plan all the way to the end.  We will show you how to get charges removed if you are convicted.  Whatever collateral impacts exist on your rights, we can advise you on how to arrange your life to get charges and other legal duties vacated in the shortest time possible.

We know from experience that false allegations, misunderstandings, and bad luck happen to everyone.  Whatever challenge the State brings to your life, you can call on us to help you weather the storm and continue a peaceful, prosperous life.
