Los Angeles Criminal Defense Attorney

Dealing with serious criminal charges is frightening.  There is every reason to be concerned, as if the District Attorney has determined that there is enough evidence to arrest you, they probably consider that they can convict you.  Not only will they be highly motivated to get the conviction, they will have the backup of the law enforcement investigation team who will provide the evidence to prove you are guilty of the charge.  With these odds, you must get an equally powerful legal team fighting on your behalf.  Attorney Michael V. Severo was named a "Super Lawyer" in 2006, a designation that only 5% of the attorneys in the country can claim.  The team gathered at the firm is highly motivated, dedicated and aggressive in their approach to criminal defense cases.   Every aspect of your case and the evidence against you will be thoroughly reviewed to determine whether law enforcement violated the rights of the client in their investigation. 

When a violation is found, this will be exploited on behalf of the client with court challenges to suppress evidence that was gathered illegally.  There are often many options for the defense of such cases, but it takes a skilled and dedicated criminal defense lawyer to seek out the possibilities in any such case.
