Eugene, Oregon Criminal Defense Lawyer

Misdemeanor charges are criminal offenses that are less severe than felonies but still carry significant consequences, including jail time, probation, fines, and a lasting criminal record.

Felony charges are serious criminal offenses that carry significant legal penalties, including lengthy prison sentences, heavy fines, and lasting impacts on employment, housing, and civil rights.

Traffic offenses cover a wide range of violations, from speeding tickets and reckless driving charges to serious offenses like driving under the influence or vehicular assault. Even minor infractions can carry lasting consequences, including fines, higher insurance rates, and possible license suspension.

Self-defense laws exist to protect individuals who act to safeguard themselves, their loved ones, or their property from harm. However, when a self-defense situation escalates—particularly involving firearms—it can lead to criminal charges, complex investigations, and life-altering consequences.

Restraining orders are civil court orders designed to protect individuals from threats, harassment, abuse, or other harmful behavior. These orders can have serious consequences for both parties involved, including restrictions on movement, contact, and even child custody.
