About

Defense Representation From A Proven Prosecutor

When your freedom, future, and reputation are on the line, you need a defense attorney who not only understands the law—but understands how the other side thinks. At Pelta Law, you benefit from the experience of a former criminal prosecutor who knows the justice system from the inside out.

With three years spent in the prosecutor’s office, I gained a deep understanding of how the state builds and argues its cases. I now use that insight to your advantage—holding the prosecution to its burden of proof and exposing the weaknesses in their case. My background allows me to craft aggressive, strategic defenses that can stand up to intense scrutiny from judges, juries, and prosecutors alike.

While I valued my time as a prosecutor, I founded Pelta Law in 2008 to pursue my true calling: defending individuals facing criminal charges and helping them reclaim their lives.

Affordable, Aggressive Representation—Focused on Results

At Pelta Law, I take a hands-on, personalized approach to every case. When you hire me, you work directly with me—not a junior associate or a case manager. I’m a seasoned trial attorney who’s not afraid to take your case to court if that’s what it takes to achieve the best possible outcome. Unlike many criminal defense lawyers who rush into plea deals, I fight to protect your rights every step of the way.

I handle a broad range of criminal matters, including DUI charges, drug offenses, felony crimes, and complex restraining order litigation. I have extensive experience with all types of restraining orders—Domestic Violence, Civil Harassment, and Elder Abuse—and understand the high stakes involved in these cases.

I know how overwhelming criminal charges can be—and how much they can affect your future, your family, and your reputation. That’s why I work relentlessly to reduce the impact of your case and fight for the second chance you deserve. Your outcome matters to me, because I understand what’s at stake.

I’m also proud to have been admitted to the Bar of the Supreme Court of the United States - an honor granted to a select group of attorneys. This distinction allows me to represent clients before the highest court in the country.
