Illinois Criminal Defense Attorney Fighting for You
You have been accused of a crime, or you are being prosecuted in court for a crime. The decision you make now and in the immediate future will shape your life for years and decades to come. Will you have a partner on your side with the experience and the ability to guide you toward the right decisions, reaching the best possible outcome?
When you have been implicated in a criminal matter, the justice system is focused on building a case to incriminate you. Everything you do, everything you say, is suddenly considered from the point of view of establishing guilt. At the Peoria law office of Joel E. Brown, Attorney at Law, we put more than 17 years of respected legal practice behind the singular effort of helping you win a dismissal, prove your defense, demonstrate you innocence to a jury or minimize your penalty.
Federal and State Criminal Defense Practice— Built to Protect You
There are important distinctions between state and federal criminal cases. Not every state court based criminal defense lawyer has the experience, set of skills and resources to build a strong defense of a federal case, and not every attorney who focuses on federal crimes can properly adapt to the structure of state defense.
For more than 17 years, this attorney has established a proud and proven reputation in both state and federal criminal court. We represent clients facing serious charges and long-term penalties in criminal charges such as:
- Federal drug cases
- Federal weapons offenses
- Federal computer and technology crimes
- Federal white collar crimes
- State drug charges
- State violent crimes
- State theft and property crimes
We provide our clients with a results-focused defense. We give you a fair and honest assessment of your case, a range of options you can consider and the tools to make the best decision for your unique circumstances. Then we empower you to make choices about your own future.
You make the decisions, and we work to make those decisions a reality. When you work with our attorney, you own your case.
