BOTH SIDES HAVE TO WORK TO COME TO AGREEMENTS ON CRIMINAL JUSTICE REFORM

Politics is no game, and the recent shutdown of the federal government is a good example of this. Both parties have to work together to reach solutions that are in the best interests of everyone, and this is also true at the state governmental level. Here at home our legislators are going to have to come together for meaningful criminal justice reform. The trick is to strike a balance between appropriate punishments and treatment options. Many people are charged with non-violent crimes but are serving sentences fit for more serious offenses. Many of those defendants would benefit more from rehab or other treatment options than serving time behind bars. Until there is reform that works, we are here for you. We take on cases for people facing drug charges including possession, traffic violations such as speeding and DUI, and other serious offenses. Let us help you today.
