Comprehensive Criminal Defense Strategy in Charlotte

Many criminal defense attorneys take a narrow view and focus only on the criminal charge with a view toward seeking the lowest possible charge, lowest fine, or least amount of jail time. While all of these are significant considerations, the Law Office of Kelli Y. Allen, PLLC employs a comprehensive approach to the practice of criminal law, always analyzing the case for potential collateral consequences such as: Immigration impact, effect on driver’s license or insurance, potential ramifications if ever faced with similar future charges, and impact on any pending or future family law issues such as divorce, alimony, or child custody. This allows our clients to make intelligent, well-informed decisions based on a full understanding and analysis of his/her entire life and future.
