Criminal Defense Attorney in Los Angeles

Defending your rights in Los Angeles

Facing criminal charges can be terrifying, especially if you have no prior experience with law enforcement or the criminal justice system.  Your life and liberty are on the line - it is crucial that you take the time to speak with a qualified attorney who will prepare an aggressive defense strategy in order to protect your constitutional rights and your future.  An experienced, highly skilled defense attorney may mean the difference between a prison sentence and reduced or dismissed charges.  Los Angeles criminal defense lawyer Robert M. Bernstein is a highly-acclaimed litigator who has the experience and legal knowledge that you need when facing serious criminal charges.  Mr. Bernstein works closely with every client throughout the entire criminal process in order to achieve optimum results for your case.

As a former prosecutor, our founding attorney understands both sides of the legal system. He knows what to look for in building a more effective defense against criminal charges of any kind, and he uses his background to anticipate the prosecuting attorney's next move. Whether you are facing a misdemeanor charge or multiple serious felony charges - you should have the best possible defense to help ensure that you are not the victim of overzealous prosecutors and overly harsh punishments and consequences.  A successful case result may come down to the seemingly minor details of the case, but no opportunity will go overlooked when you work with our Los Angeles criminal defense law firm. A careful investigation may reveal an illegal search, a confession obtained without the defendant receiving the Miranda warning, an arrest made without probable cause or some other factor that could result in key evidence being dismissed and an entire case turning in the defendant's favor.
