College Student Crimes: Ohio Criminal Defense Lawyer
College is a time where young adults break free from direct parental supervision and learn to live on their own. It is a process of discovery that often lends itself to the exploration of boundaries that can be both exciting and dangerous.
Unfortunately, it is also a time when young adults are at high risk of dangerous behavior, including underage drinking, drunk driving, drug experimentation and other risky behavior that can result in arrest and criminal conviction.
As a former prosecutor, I have seen first hand the manner in which otherwise law abiding students find themselves caught up in the criminal justice system. Now, as a criminal defense attorney, I have the opportunity to provide college students with my help and assistance.
At my law office in Columbus, Ohio, I provide a criminal defense practice for the benefit of juveniles and adults. I represent college students in a wide range of criminal law matters, including:
- OVI/DUI/DWI
- underage drinking
- crimes on campus, at sporting events or concerts
- Shoplifting and other theft offenses
- Drug possession and other drug charges
- Assault
- Criminal mischief
- Receiving stolen property
- Traffic violations
