Protecting Clients for More Than 35 Years
Attorney Ervin represents clients in the following criminal matters:
Felonies
If you have been charged with a felony, it is essential that you retain an experienced criminal defense attorney to zealously defend you in court. Felonies are the most serious crimes — such as murder, rape, armed robbery, credit card fraud, and burglary. Felony convictions also have the most serious consequences. A person convicted of a felony is sentenced to serve at least one year in a state or federal prison and may be committed for life. In addition, convicted felons are stripped of many of the rights guaranteed to American citizens, including the right to vote, the right to travel out of the country, and the right to own a gun. Convicted felons also have to disclose their crimes on job applications and can be deported if they are not American citizens.
How your felony charge is defended can make the difference between life and death for you. Attorney Ervin is committed to attaining the best possible outcome for you.
Misdemeanors
Misdemeanors are crimes such as disorderly conduct, simple assault, shoplifting, and trespassing that are punishable by less than a year in prison. Although misdemeanors are less serious than felonies, having a misdemeanor conviction on your criminal record can limit your employment options and can result in a jail sentence. Ensure that you receive a fair trial by letting John Ervin represent you.
Motor Vehicle Offenses
If you have been charged with operating a vehicle under the influence of drugs or alcohol, driving with a suspended license, or vehicular manslaughter, Attorney Ervin can help. He also assists clients who need to get their driver's licenses restored or fight traffic tickets.
Drug Crimes
Charges of trafficking, distributing or possession of illegal substances or drug paraphernalia can result in heavy fines and extended time in jail. You can rely on Attorney Ervin's knowledge of drug crimes and his history of successful results to help eliminate or minimize the charges against you.
Sealing and Expungement of Records
A criminal record can prevent you from pursuing higher education, securing your dream job, or traveling abroad. John Ervin can help you eliminate past criminal charges from your record or get those records sealed so that you can move on with your life.
