When faced with criminal charges, the stakes are incredibly high, and having the right legal representation can be the difference between preserving your freedom or facing life-altering consequences. At the Law Office of Michael P Carroll PC, our criminal law practice is built on a foundation of strong commitment to our clients and an in-depth understanding of the intricacies of the criminal justice system. 


Our chief attorney, Mr. Michael P. Carroll, provides comprehensive and aggressive defense strategies for a wide range of offenses, from misdemeanors like petty theft or disorderly conduct to felonies like assault, drug possession, or white-collar crimes. We strive to gain a significant advantage before the trial even begins.

We dissect your case with a laser focus, scrutinizing police reports for inconsistencies and potential violations. Our careful analysis extends to witness statements and physical evidence, looking for opportunities to suppress illegally obtained information. If we believe the police violated your constitutional rights during a search or arrest, we can file a motion to suppress any evidence obtained illegally. This can significantly weaken the prosecution's case if key evidence is excluded. 

If the case reaches the trial stage, our team will help you build a compelling narrative that presents a clear and consistent story that is consistent with the defendant's version of events. We will make sure our narrative highlights all the mitigating factors.
