If you or someone you care about is in trouble or has a legal problem, we can help. We have extensive experience guiding our clients to positive resolutions in various legal situations, including:
- Traffic defense — If you were pulled over and given a traffic ticket for speeding, reckless driving, drunk driving (DUI/DWI) or another traffic violation, we will work hard to have the case dismissed or we will attempt to minimize the consequences.
- Personal injury — When you or someone you love is hurt because of another person's actions, you deserve to be compensated for medical bills, lost wages and other damages. We will negotiate with the insurance company on your behalf and fight for the payment you need.
- Real estate law — We will draft and review real estate documents so that you fully understand your obligations and rights in real estate transactions. We are also available to help you resolve your real estate disputes in negotiation and in the courtroom.
- Criminal defense — The consequences of a criminal conviction can be severe. We will take the time to analyze your situation and do everything we can to minimize the impact of criminal charges on your future.
- Civil litigation — If you are involved in a legal conflict, it is important to have the help of a lawyer who understands the system and knows how to protect your rights. We will guide you through negotiation and courtroom litigation to seek the best possible result for your circumstances.
With more than 25 years of experience, our attorney — James H. Ritchie, Jr. — personally handles every case. You can rest assured that he will examine all avenues to accomplish your legal goals.
