What Happens After an Arrest? You Take Back Control. We Take the Lead.

We move quickly to protect your rights and fight for the best possible outcome. Whether you’re facing jail time, a suspended license, or a permanent criminal record, our team is ready to help. We begin by challenging weak evidence, protecting you from self-incrimination, and negotiating with prosecutors—always with trial in mind.



Depending on your case, we may fight for:


  • Charges to be dismissed or reduced
  • Entry into pre-trial diversion programs (where available)
  • Avoiding jail or prison time
  • Reducing or eliminating fines and penalties
  • Clearing your record through expungement when eligible

We’ve helped people walk away from criminal charges with their freedom, future, and dignity intact—and we’re ready to help you do the same.

Shreveport Criminal Defense FAQs

  • Do I really need a lawyer if I’m guilty or just want to plead?

    Yes. You may still have options to reduce charges, avoid jail, or protect your record. Never plead guilty without legal advice.

  • What’s the difference between a misdemeanor and a felony in Louisiana?

    Misdemeanors are punishable by up to 6 months in jail. Felonies carry longer sentences and harsher consequences, including losing your right to vote or carry a firearm.

  • Can I get charges dropped if the victim doesn’t press charges?

    Not always. The state can still move forward with prosecution—even if the alleged victim wants to drop the case. A lawyer can intervene early to improve your chances.

  • Will this stay on my record forever?

    Not necessarily. Some charges are eligible for expungement after a waiting period. We can help you understand your options.

  • How soon should I call a defense attorney?

    Immediately. The earlier we get involved, the more we can do to shape the case—from evidence to plea negotiations to keeping charges off your record entirely.
