DWI Defense Attorneys in Statesville, North Carolina

Contrary to what some law enforcement officers may lead you to believe, you DO have rights when being investigated for a criminal offense. Overly aggressive law enforcement must account for their actions in a court of law, and through our representation of you, we make them do just that. Regardless what you are accused of, the law firm of Crosswhite, Crosswhite, Ashley, Johnson & Allen, PLLC will not allow police and prosecutors to "railroad" you or treat you unfairly. In the criminal justice system, any evidence police collect by means of an illegal search or seizure is excluded and cannot be used against you. This is to discourage them from such behavior.

Excluding Evidence

"Reasonable suspicion" is required in order for any law enforcement officer to pull you over. "Probable cause" is required to place you under arrest for whatever criminal offense they are investigating. Reasonable suspicion could be based on any number of reasons stated by an officer. The reasons are sometimes exaggerated or even fabricated, and as such require a thorough investigation into their credibility. A judge could disagree with an officer's suspicion and reason for pulling you over and exclude certain evidence at your trial.

Controversial methods such as vehicle checkpoints and license checks, where every car is checked, have been scrutinized in recent years. A criminal defense lawyer's job is to fully investigate your case, vigorously prepare ALL defenses available to you, and fight for you at every step.
