Traffic Ticket Defense

Criminal Defense

When people are accused of a crime, they face the terrible possibility of going to jail. The most urgent priority is contacting Lawinger Law Office to help arrange release and provide information about what's to come in the days ahead. The attorneys at Lawinger Law Office do much more than simply question witnesses court. If you are accused of a crime, you are innocent until proven guilty with certain Constitutional Rights and Lawinger Law Office will fight for your rights. We will:

  • Negotiate with prosecutors.

  • Fight for reduction of bail.

  • Provide defendents with an objective perspective on their situation and what is likely to happen should their case go to trial.

  • Spend crucial time on your case.

  • Gather information from prosecution witnesses.

Wills & Estate Planning

We've all been told that if we do nothing else to take care of our legal affairs, we should write a will. That's pretty good advice. If you don't make a will before your death, state law will determine who gets your property (and it may well not be whom you would have chosen), and a judge may decide who will raise your children. In your will, you can make these decisions yourself. If you are concerned about how your interests will be managed in the event you became incapacitated, Lawinger Law Office is ready to meet your estate planning needs; including drafting a living will or advanced health care directive and creating your will.
