Criminal Defense

Connecticut Criminal Defense Attorney – New Haven DUI, Drug Defense Lawyer

“If you need someone to stand up and fight for you, call us.”
 -- Attorney Jerald Barber

The New Haven law firm of Williams and Barber has more than a decade of experience fighting for the rights of people who have been arrested or charged with crimes ranging from shoplifting to drug charges to capital felonies.

If you are facing any misdemeanor or felony charge, please contact a criminal defense attorney at Williams and Barber for a free consultation and case evaluation.

We have successfully represented clients accused of a wide range of crimes, including, but not limited to:

We represent adult and juvenile clients in parole and probation hearings, and proceedings to secure pardons or expungement of the criminal record.

In all criminal cases, we listen carefully to your explanation of events and describe your legal options. Based on our years of experience, we will give you our best legal advice: Fight it in court or negotiate a plea? Move for a mistrial, appeal the verdict, or both?

We explore all the options for minimizing negative consequences to you. If you’ve been charged with a drug crime, for example, we will question whether there was an illegal search and seizure of evidence. We may recommend pursuing alternatives to incarceration available for some charges through drug court, such as community service or drug rehab.
