criminal defense

If you are charged with a criminal offense, it is extremely important to reach out to a criminal defense attorney right away. You may believe from the outset that you are guilty of the charged crime. However, the government must prove that you are guilty beyond a reasonable doubt. If the government cannot prove each and every element of the charged crime beyond a reasonable doubt, you must be found not guilty. Furthermore, if the police violated your constitutional rights in any way, evidence against you and incriminating statements that you made may be excluded from trial. 

Attorney McKelligan will work with you to create an individualized approach for your specific case. She will file the appropriate motions to have your case dismissed or evidence and/or statements excluded from trial. Attorney McKelligan is not afraid to take your case to trial and fight for you before a judge or a jury.
