I defend clients across Providence, Kent, Newport, and Washington County Family Courts in cases ranging from misdemeanors to serious felonies.
Cases I Handle
DUI & Refusal (license suspensions, ALS hearings, first-offense & repeat)
Domestic Violence Charges (assault, no-contact order violations)
Drug Possession & Distribution (including marijuana and controlled substances)

Why Hire a Local Rhode Island Defense Attorney?
Knowledge of Rhode Island courts: Providence, Kent, Newport, and Washington each run differently.
Relationships matter: prosecutors, judges, and clerks recognize experienced local defense attorneys.
Strategic defenses: motions to suppress evidence, challenge police procedure, negotiate diversion or dismissal.
The earlier you bring in a defense lawyer, the more options you keep open.
