CRIMINAL DEFENSE

A criminal charge disrupts your life. A criminal conviction can change your life forever.

At Silis and Associates, we understand the impact a criminal charge can have on your life, both in the short term and well into the future. To minimize the impact of criminal charges, we take a three-tiered approach to defending you:

Motions

Our first priority is to make efforts to suppress incriminating evidence against you and to discover exculpatory evidence that is favorable to your case.

Negotiation

After we have determined the scope of the information that both helps and hurts your case, we have extensive experience negotiating with prosecutors in order to minimize the impact of charges against you.

Trial Advocacy

While we strive to resolve your issue before going to the courtroom, we are always prepared to advocate zealously in your defense to protect your reputation and secure your freedom.

Our goal is to secure the most favorable outcome possible for you. We have successfully defended our clients against many criminal charges, including: embezzlement, burglary, counterfeiting, DUI, assault and battery, and drug possession and trafficking. Even in cases with serious charges, we have obtained reduced charges, dismissals, and acquittals.
