Whether as complainants, victims, witnesses or otherwise, clients involved in family criminal matters need special attention and representation that is sensitive to and respectful of the circumstances that brought them to us. We handle these types of cases regularly and pride ourselves in addressing the whole problem, not just the client’s discrete matter before the court.
