"Just because you did It, doesn't mean you're guilty."
Criminal Defense
Benjamin Leavitt has devoted himself to criminal law for his entire career. As a law student, he worked at a community criminal defense organization and successfully defended numerous clients. As a newly admitted attorney, he joined one of the elite public defender programs in the country. While he believes deeply in the presumption of innocence and the right of every person to the strongest defense possible, he realizes there are many things that lead people into situations they never wanted or expected to experience. The vast majority of people accused of crimes are hardly hardened criminals, and it is his responsibility to help clients out of tough spots and use his experience in the criminal justice system to get clients any and all help they need.
If you’ve been accused of a crime and face the possibility of going to jail, you already understand the seriousness of your situation. You need an attorney who will treat your case with equal urgency, an attorney who understands what hangs in the balance for you and your family.
With an intimate understanding of criminal law and state and federal constitutions, Leavitt will provide you with the best legal strategy for your case, whether through negotiating a plea for minimal sentencing, or through a full-scale jury trial. In either case, his experience provides the peace of mind of being treated fairly by the legal system.
Don’t just accept a guilty plea; get the skilled legal counsel you need to protect your rights and get justice for you.
