At Hepworth, Pendry and Katkish, we are passionate about protecting clients at every stage of the criminal defense process. With over 30 years of experience, we bring a broad perspective and practical knowledge to every case.
Dedicated Criminal Defense Practice
We take the time to thoroughly explore all aspects of your case. This allows us to not only meet your legal needs, but also to position you for success post-sentencing.
Our practice includes:
- Criminal trial practice - We advocate for our clients at every stage of the criminal trial process. Whether you are a "person of interest" in an investigation or you have been charged with a crime, we will zealously protect your interests.
- Traffic/DUI Defense - We offer our extensive experience in this area to defend our clients.
- Sex Crimes - We aggressively defend our clients charged with sex crimes.
- Sentencing practice - We work to convince judges to hand down sentences that are geared towards rehabilitation rather than punishment. Our focus is always on giving our clients a more positive future.
- Appeals & post-conviction issues — If you have been convicted of a crime, it is easy to feel hopeless. We will help you understand your options regarding an appeal or post-conviction motion to protect your freedom.
- Sentencing consulting services - We offer our experience, knowledge and guidance to other attorneys. If you are struggling with a case, we will provide the assistance that could make the difference for your client.
