Mark D. Richards
(Senior Partner )

I have tried over 75
jury trials, ranging
from simple two day
Operating While
Intoxicated trials to
month long homicide
trials.
In the past twenty
years I have represented
clients in both State
and Federal courts
charged with a variety
of crimes ranging from
First Degree Homicide,
drug conspiracies,
Vehicular Homicide and
Sexual Assault.
I have tried over 75
jury trials, ranging
from simple two day
Operating While
Intoxicated trials to
month long homicide
trials.
The cornerstone of these
representations have
been a thorough
investigation both
factually and legally of
all defenses so that no
potential defenses are
left unexplored or
unlitigated. This "leave
no stone unturned" type
of representation has
led to numerous
successful outcomes for
my clients.
If you or your clients
have potential criminal
exposure, do not
hesitate to call or
email for a free
consultation. The sooner
representation is
secured the sooner your
rights are protected.

Christy M. Hall
(Partner )
 In the
past ten years I have
represented clients in
both State and Federal
court charged with a
variety of crimes, as
well as appellate
representation. While I
have represented
individuals charged with
serious felonies all the
way down to traffic
offenses, I realize that
each client’s situation
is uniquely different,
and of the utmost
importance to them. That
is why the cornerstone
of these representations
has been a thorough
investigation both
factually and legally of
all defenses so that no
potential defenses are
left unexplored or unlitigated. This "leave
no stone unturned" type
of representation has
led to numerous
successful outcomes for
my clients.
If you or
your clients have
potential criminal
exposure, do not
hesitate to call or
email for a free
consultation. The sooner
representation is
secured the sooner your
rights are protected.
