Criminal Defense

An arrest for a criminal offense can forever change your life. It can jeopardize your reputation, your job, your finances and possibly even your freedom. The right criminal defense attorney is essential to defending your rights and protecting your freedom.

There are few things in life more terrifying than being prosecuted for a crime. For most people, all they know about the path a criminal case takes is from what they have seen on television or in the movies. Having a skilled and experienced criminal defense lawyer who can explain the process and then successfully guide you through it is essential. Jason M. Johnson has years of experience defending criminal cases and can ease many of your fears.

Aside from the punishment that can come from the court, there are many others indirect consequences that can result from a criminal conviction. A conviction can have life long effects and can even end your career, if you are a professional and hold a state issued license or certificate like law enforcement officers, doctors, nurses, pilots, teachers or members of the military. A conviction can also effect your ability to get the job you want, get a loan, or to get into school. We are very familiar with these unseen consequences and will work to help you avoid them.
