CLG provides criminal representation in both State and Federal Court systems in a wide variety of criminal charges. We can handle anything from minor traffic violatiosn to more serious DUIs.

CLG also offers experienced representation in complex criminal cases, including serious felonies, White-Collar Crimes and other sophisticated criminal defense matters.

The aim in each case is to defeat the charge, or reach a resolution that does not involve custody time or the loss of professional privileges. While no one can guarantee results in a criminal matter, it is well settled that when anyone faces criminal charges it is in their best interest to seek a private attorney rather than rely upon a public defender.

A study was reported in the New York Times discussing the difference between being represented by a public defender as opposed to being represented by a retained attorney in a criminal case. The study was conducted by two economists for Emory University and concluded that in serious cases "the average sentence for clients of public defenders was almost THREE YEARS longer than the average for clients of private attorneys." Moreover, when all cases were considered, the average sentence for clients of public defenders was almost FIVE YEARS longer than the average for clients of private attorneys.

By zealously defending the Constitution and the rights of our clients, CLG attorneys are staunch advocates for those accused of crimes.  We vow to protect and minimize the impact of the case on our clients in all areas of their lives.  

When facing a criminal prosecution everyone should at least consult with an experienced criminal defense lawyer, someone that has experience representing people accused of similar charges.   Every case is unique and each of our clients deserve an advocate fighting in their corner.
