When you have been charged with a crime, whether a felony or a misdemeanor, you want an experienced lawyer to help you understand your rights and help you navigate the often complex criminal justice system. The consequences of a conviction can be severe, including fines and penalties, incarceration and the loss of basic rights if convicted of a felony.
At the Sparrow Law Firm in Raleigh, North Carolina, we offer aggressive and experienced counsel to people charged with felonies or misdemeanors, from theft offenses to drug crimes to homicide. Our founding attorney, Michelle Sparrow, worked as an assistant prosecuting attorney before opening her own law practice. We understand how prosecutors and police work together to prepare a criminal case. We know how to evaluate a police report and determine when police, prosecutors or witnesses are not fully disclosing all relevant information. We can anticipate the tactics and strategies employed by prosecutors and help you take the right steps to protect your constitutional rights.
We defend people facing all types of felony and misdemeanor charges, including cases involving:
- Drug offenses: We defend against possession, trafficking and distribution charges involving all types of controlled substances, such as cocaine, marijuana, crack, heroin, meth and even prescription drugs.
- DUI
- Larceny and other theft offenses: We take misdemeanor and felony cases involving charges of shoplifting, credit card fraud, embezzlement, armed robbery and other forms of theft.
- Homicide: We protect the constitutional rights of people charged with murder or manslaughter, including first-degree murder and felony murder.
- Assault
When you hire us to defend you against a criminal charge, we will conduct a thorough investigation of the facts and circumstances of your case, looking first to determine whether police had probable cause to conduct any search or seizure. We will also confirm that evidence was not obtained in violation of your constitutional rights.
We offer a free initial consultation to all clients. Contact our office or call us at 919-829-3500 (toll free at 877-421-0645) for an appointment.
