Why These Charges Require Immediate Action

In violent crime cases, the stakes are high. Prosecutors often pursue the most severe version of the charge, and judges don’t hesitate to impose maximum penalties.

Building a Strong Defense Strategy

Every case is different, but our approach is consistent:



  • We get your side of the story early
  • We examine bodycam footage, witness statements, and police reports
  • We consult with forensic experts, if needed
  • We raise self-defense, mistaken identity, or lack of intent where appropriate
  • We work for dismissal, reduced charges, or an acquittal at trial

With experience handling both high-stakes trials and behind-the-scenes negotiations, we know how to fight—and when to push for a favorable deal.

Licensed in Cherokee Nation & Oklahoma Courts

We represent clients in both state and tribal courts. If your charge occurred within Cherokee Nation jurisdiction, we are fully licensed to defend you there.



Whether you’re facing charges in Rogers County District Court or in tribal court, you’ll have a legal team that knows the system, the prosecutors, and how to navigate both.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

  • What should I say to police if I’m arrested for a violent crime?

    Nothing without a lawyer present. Politely invoke your right to remain silent and request an attorney. Do not try to explain or argue your case at the scene.

  • Can I claim self-defense in Oklahoma?

    Yes. Oklahoma recognizes self-defense and “Stand Your Ground” laws. We’ll help determine if this defense applies to your case.

  • Will I go to prison if I’m convicted?

    It depends on the charge, your record, and the circumstances. Some offenses carry mandatory minimums. We work to avoid conviction or minimize penalties.

  • Can domestic violence charges be dropped by the victim?

    Not always. Once filed, the case is in the hands of the prosecutor—not the alleged victim. However, their cooperation (or lack thereof) can still impact the case.

  • How long do violent crime cases take to resolve?

     It varies. Some are resolved quickly through motions or negotiations, while others require extended preparation for trial. We’ll keep you informed at every stage.
