Aggressively Defending Violent Crime Charges
When defending a client, our firm goes far beyond the information contained in the police report. We often hire a private investigator or forensic evidence specialist who can uncover additional facts helpful to your case. We make aggressive use of motions to dismiss and motions to exclude evidence. Our attorneys review all possible defenses, including those based on self-defense or defense of another person.
Our firm will work to build a strong and vigorous defense for you.
A Former Prosecutor, Now a Successful Defense Attorney

He now uses his experience and skills to defend those facing violent crime charges in Orange County and elsewhere in Southern California. Mr. Holmes will lead a team of professionals who will fight for your rights and freedom.
In a number of cases, we have been able to forge an alliance with the victim of the assault. This enabled us to persuade the prosecutor to drop the charge for our client to a lesser crime.
