Durham, North Carolina, Felony and Misdemeanor Defense
Criminal prosecution is aggressive and often relentless. There is virtually no such thing as a minor criminal charge or conviction. Not only are you facing potential penalties like fees, fines and jail time as a result of a criminal complaint, you will be burdened with a criminal record for years and decades to come that can impact you in unexpected ways.
When you have been charged with a felony or misdemeanor in the Durham area, it is important to have representation on your side that is focused on your rights and your interests. Put our experience and our focus on outstanding client service behind your case.
For more than 15 years, our founding attorney, Kathy Williams Richardson, has been defending North Carolina citizens facing criminal charges.
