Thorough Criminal Defense Practice in Pima County, Arizona
The United States Constitution is the foundation of our democracy. It is also the foundation of my legal practice. If you have been charged with a crime — from DUI to another state or federal offense — I can protect your rights with thorough representation.
To discuss the facts of your case with an experienced criminal defense attorney, call my office, Steven D. West, P.C., at 520-468-6791, toll free at 866-603-9939, or contact me online for a free initial consultation. From my office in Tucson, Arizona, I represent clients who have been charged with state or federal crimes.
Federal Criminal Defense
Although it is rare for a federal charge to go to trial, the possibility of a trial is important in giving the defense leverage in negotiations. As a federal criminal defense attorney, I have a reputation for being a strong litigator. I am not afraid to argue the weaknesses in the prosecution's case as well as the strengths of my client's defense to a jury. When negotiating for my clients, I am preparing for trial if a reasonable deal is not offered.
If you have been charged with a federal crime — from drug possession to sex crimes to smuggling — I can represent you. I represent clients at the U.S. District Court in Tucson and have handled appeals to the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals in San Francisco.
State Criminal Defense
Whether you have been charged with a felony or a misdemeanor, you need the legal assistance of a qualified criminal defense attorney. I represent clients charged with a range of state-level crimes, including, but not limited to:
- Murder
- Arson
- Rape
- Burglary
- Drug Possession and/or Distribution
- Probation Violation
With over 25 years of trial experience, I have a history of obtaining successful resolutions for my clients. No matter how serious the charges or how great the evidence against the client, I have found that there is always something that can be done to present your defense.
DUI Defense
The Fourth Amendment of the Constitution guarantees you the freedom from unreasonable searches and seizure of your person and property. Unfortunately, in the case of DUI arrests, these rights are routinely violated. As an experienced DUI lawyer, I can ensure that your rights are asserted and a strong defense strategy is built for your case.
