Criminal Defense

The sixth amendment of the United States Constitution guarantees the right to every person accused of a crime to be represented by legal counsel. If you have been charged with a crime, you have a right to a criminal defense attorney. Choose an attorney who has a successful defense record. Collin Law Offices, P.C. has the experience and skill to defend you in your pending criminal case, and will fight to get you the results you deserve.

As safeguards to the fairness of the proceedings, our criminal court system has rules of due process and criminal procedure that govern the actions of all individuals involved. This includes the police officers, defense lawyers, prosecutors, judges and juries. Attorney Collin is well versed in the areas of due process and criminal procedure, and will aggressively work within this legal framework to effectively advocate on your behalf.

Whether the facts of your case call for either negotiating a plea agreement or taking it to a bench or jury trial, Collin Law Offices, P.C. is here to assist you. Many other attorneys, both public defenders and private counsel, are often more than willing to enter into unfavorable plea agreements for their clients so that they can move onto their next case. When an attorney is reluctant to take a case to trial, a prosecutor usually has little incentive to meaningfully negotiate or make a reasonable offer to resolve a case that is favorable to the defendant. Although plea agreements should always be on the table as an option, Attorney Collin is more than willing to take a case to trial if necessary to get you the results you deserve.

Attorney Collin’s criminal practice includes the defense of DUI and other alcohol related offenses, drug crimes, assault and battery, sex crimes, theft, fraud and robbery cases, juvenile crimes, domestic violence cases and restraining orders. From arraignment and pretrial motions to trial, we will fight for you at every stage of your case.

If you have been charged with a crime, it is important that you call our offices and meet with an attorney to discuss your case. Give us a call today to review your options. (312) 263-1252 and (708) 714-2266.
