Misdemeanor Criminal Defense
A misdemeanor may sound minor, but a conviction can carry jail time, fines, and a record that affects employment, housing, and immigration status for years. We treat these cases with the same care and preparation we bring to the most serious matters, because for our clients the consequences are real.
We defend misdemeanor charges in D.C. Superior Court and, where they arise, in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia, including assault, theft, destruction of property, weapons possession, drug possession, and domestic violence charges. We look closely at how the evidence was gathered and whether the government can actually prove its case, and we pursue dismissals, diversion, and favorable resolutions wherever the facts allow.
As a D.C. trial boutique founded by three former federal prosecutors, we bring seasoned judgment and genuine attention to every case, whatever its size. If you are facing a misdemeanor charge in the District of Columbia, we invite you to reach out.
