Havre de Grace Criminal Defense Lawyer

Facing charges in Havre de Grace? FrizWoods defends clients across Harford County courts, including DUI, assault, drug, theft, and felony cases.

Defense Built for Your Goals

We start by mapping your objectives—avoiding incarceration, protecting employment and licenses, or safeguarding immigration status—and then we build a defense that matches. We move quickly to preserve evidence and identify legal issues that can reduce or dismiss charges. When sentencing is likely, we prepare mitigation tailored to Harford County expectations.

Legal Issues We Focus On

  • Traffic stop legality and the scope of the investigation
  • Consent and probable cause for searches
  • Voluntariness and admissibility of statements
  • Reliability of lab and expert evidence

Practical Concerns We Help With

  • Scheduling and court preparation
  • Employer notifications, when necessary
  • Background check considerations and timing
  • Coordinating treatment or counseling that actually helps in court

Our Process in Havre de Grace Cases

  1. Rapid case triage and a concrete, written plan
  2. Targeted discovery and investigation (BWC, CAD, 911, lab, scene review)
  3. Focused motion practice on issues that impact outcomes
  4. Transparent negotiation strategy with clear risk ranges
  5. Trial readiness if the evidence demands it

Collateral and Long-Term Planning

We account for employment, licensing, immigration, and security clearance implications from the start. We also plan for background checks and timing, so you are positioned to move forward after the case concludes.

Sentencing Preparation—Only When It Helps

We recommend treatment, letters, and documentation when they provide real value in Harford County courts. We avoid busywork and keep your time focused on actions that improve outcomes.

FAQs
