Criminal Defense

Shasta County Criminal Defense Attorney

Protecting Your Rights. Preserving Your Future.

Accused of a Crime? You Don’t Have to Face It Alone.

When the government comes after you, everything is on the line—your freedom, your reputation, your job, even your family. In that moment, you need more than just a lawyer. You need a fighter.


I defend good people against serious accusations—whether it’s a felony, misdemeanor, or allegation that never should’ve been made in the first place. Based in Redding and serving clients throughout Shasta County and beyond, I’m here to stand between you and the full weight of the government.

Areas of Criminal Defense

  • DUI & Drug Charges
    Don’t let a mistake—or a misunderstanding—define your future. I fight for dismissals, reductions, and second chances.
  • Domestic Violence
    I handle these cases with urgency and discretion, knowing how often emotions run high—and how often the full truth never makes it into the report.
  • Assault & Violent Crimes
    Self-defense, mutual combat, mistaken identity—there’s always more to the story. I make sure your side is heard.
  • Theft, Burglary & Property Crimes
    From minor shoplifting to felony burglary, I challenge the evidence and push back on weak or overcharged cases.
  • Sex Offense Allegations
    Few accusations carry more stigma. I know what’s at stake—and I never back down from a fight to clear your name throughout trial and beyond.
  • Probation Violations & Bench Warrants
    Whether you missed a court date or failed a test, I help you fix it before it becomes something worse.

What Sets Me Apart

  • Strategic Defense
    I don’t just react—I plan. Every move is deliberate, aimed at getting you the best possible result.
  • Aggressive When It Counts
    I don’t roll over, and I don’t beg. If the case can be beaten, I’ll find the way. If the DA won’t offer an amazing deal, I’ll be ready for t    rial. Let other settle. 
  • Clear Communication
    You deserve to know what’s going on in your case. I explain everything in plain English, not legal jargon.
  • Local Knowledge
    I practice right here in Shasta County. I know the courts, the judges, the prosecutors—and how to get results in this system

Your Rights Matter. I’ll Fight to Protect Them.

You are innocent until proven guilty. That’s not just a phrase—it’s your right. But too often, the system tries to flip that around. My job is to hold the line, challenge the assumptions, and force the prosecution to do their job right—or not at all.



Whether you’re looking at charges, under investigation, or already have a court date, the time to act is now. The earlier you call, the more I can do to protect you.
