About Las Vegas Defense Group

Our attorneys bring more than 100 years of collective experience. We fight all criminal charges, including battery domestic violence, grand larceny, assault and battery in Nevada, solicitation for prostitution, casino markers and drug charges.

With our own in-house private investigator, we take an aggressive and proactive approach to every case from the very first moment. This has allowed us to secure countless "not guilty" verdicts at jury trial . And case dismissals short of trial - even in the most difficult cases.

We may be able to help you avoid jail time. And possibly get the charges reduced or dismissed altogether.

Las Vegas Defense Group is a 6-lawyer team that defends citizens against misdemeanor, felony, DUI and juvenile charges. Our firm was voted the "Best Criminal Defense Firm - Gold Winner" by the Las Vegas Review Journal's "Best of Vegas".

Many California criminal defense attorneys use a wait and see approach. Before investigating your case and completing the investigation, they will stall to the first court date or wait until they have received the police reports. We believe that there is no time to waste. Defense work is most effective in the days immediately following arrest or before formal charges are filed. We can often locate witnesses and favorable evidence for defense and help defeat the charges by getting started immediately.

Do not confuse private defense investigation with former police The primary concern of cops is to assist in the building and prosecution against you. Cops should not be trusted to find favorable evidence for exonerating their suspect. They aren't on your side, to put it another way. Private defense investigators were once career officers.

Their job now is to locate evidence that can benefit you. They are assigned to interview and assist court personnel. We also know the workings of particular courts and prosecuting agencies. Our team knows who to speak to and the best ways to accomplish the task.

Our attorneys are available to appear before the court in many cases so that you don't miss work. Personal contact with your attorney is important. Being charged with a crime can be very stressful. The inability to contact your attorney only adds stress.

The Shouse Law Group places a high value on accessibility for our criminal defense attorneys and support staff. Our goal is to offer moral and emotional support, as well as legal representation. We have two principles to ensure this. Every phone call, text, and email is returned on the same day.

Every client also receives the cell phone number and contact information of the attorney. Early intervention before charges are filed. Sometimes, it's possible for criminal charges not to be filed at all. The police will take evidence from a suspect crime or arrest to the office of the district attorney.

The D. A. The D. A. evaluates each case to determine if criminal charges should be filed.

The prosecutor usually bases his decision on the information the police give him. Of course, there are often more details. Our California criminal attorneys can often meet with the D. A.

During the same period. Our information and witness statements can be presented. Your side may influence the D. A.

Calculations. The prosecutors will look at the entire picture and not only the statements of police officers or the victim. They may choose to bring down the charges or to not file any criminal charges. This is called a D.

A. Reject . Reject. You have had your case pending for some time.

You may be advised by your attorney about a particular case strategy. Accept the D. A.'s offer, or go to trial. Now you face a major life decision.

You aren't sure what you should do. Our independent evaluation of your case will allow us to give our opinion on the pros and cons of your options. We can offer you an independent opinion, much like elective surgery patients may consult another physician before making a decision about whether or not to have the procedure performed. We may agree with the position of your attorney.

We may disagree with your attorney. We may recommend a completely different approach. Our advice will not be biased and is based upon a thorough analysis of the law and facts. California Criminal Defense Attorneys can help you arrange bail hearings to reduce bail or secure OR release.

Our assistance is available to inmates held in any state jail, such as the Twin Towers Jail or the Los Angeles Men s Central Jail. We also assist with the Ventura County Jail. Shouse Law Group is there to help you through every step of the legal process. The Types of Cases we Handle.

Great communication from start to finish Michael Backer was really professional, attentive and thoughtful. I got a speeding ticket for the first time in seven years. It made me nervous and I didn't know what to do. He helped me enroll in traffic school and I avoided losing my driver's license. I will recommend Las Vegas defense to all my friends.
