Criminal Defense Areas We Handle
DUI / DRE (Drug Recognition Expert) Charges
A DUI charge can impact your freedom, license, and livelihood. Larry has handled hundreds of DUI cases, including those involving drug recognition experts (DREs) and repeat offenses. He challenges field sobriety tests, breathalyzer accuracy, and police procedures to build the strongest defense possible.
Felony Charges – Violent and Non-Violent
Facing a felony charge can be life-changing. Larry represents clients charged with both violent felonies (like assault, robbery, and manslaughter) and non-violent felonies (like theft, fraud, or possession). He fights aggressively to reduce or dismiss charges and protect your record.
Drug Possession & Trafficking
Larry defends clients against drug trafficking, possession with intent, and simple possession cases. Whether you’re facing state or federal charges, he scrutinizes search warrants, evidence chain-of-custody, and every aspect of the investigation.
Probation Violations & Revocations
If you’ve been accused of violating probation, Larry can represent you in revocation hearings, helping you avoid incarceration and get back on track. These hearings are often stacked against the defendant, but Larry knows how to navigate them.
Repeat DUI & Habitual Traffic Offenses
Indiana has harsh penalties for repeat DUI and habitual traffic violators (HTVs). Larry understands the licensing implications, ignition interlock requirements, and long-term consequences — and will fight to minimize the damage.
Misdemeanor Defense (A, B, C Classes)
Even “less serious” misdemeanor charges can carry jail time, fines, and a criminal record. Larry handles Class A, B, and C misdemeanors, working to resolve them quickly and favorably.
Domestic Violence Charges
These cases are emotional and can have far-reaching consequences. Larry takes a balanced and strategic approach, protecting your rights while navigating sensitive family dynamics and no-contact orders.
Sex Offenses
Being accused of a sex offense — even falsely — can devastate your life and reputation. Larry has experience with complex sex crime defense involving digital evidence, witness credibility, and cross-examination.
Murder & Manslaughter Defense
Few attorneys have successfully defended clients charged with murder or manslaughter. Larry has done it. These cases require deep legal knowledge, experienced jury strategy, and fearless representation under pressure.
Hardship Licenses
If your license has been suspended due to DUI or other infractions, Larry can help you apply for a hardship license (specialized driving privileges) to keep your job and responsibilities intact.
Standardized Field Sobriety Tests (SFST)
SFST results are often flawed. Larry knows how to challenge improperly administered walk-and-turn, one-leg-stand, and horizontal gaze nystagmus (HGN) tests — and expose weaknesses in the state’s evidence.
Breathalyzer Tests
Larry understands the technical flaws behind many breathalyzer systems. If the machine wasn’t calibrated, maintained, or used properly, the results can be suppressed — sometimes leading to dismissed charges.
