Criminal Defense

“Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about the things that matter.” — Martin Luther King, Jr.

Whether you are facing charges or are under investigation, getting the right lawyer involved early in the process can make a difference in the outcome of your case.

Specifically, we implore you to speak to an attorney before you consider speaking to Law Enforcement. It is our experience that speaking with Law Enforcement rarely benefits you and often hurts your case.

If you are convicted of criminal charges in South Dakota, penalties can include sizeable fines, prison or jail-time and a record that could substantially interfere with your future goals. The ripple effect of a criminal record can be a lifetime burden and can limit your freedom as to where you can live and work.

At Resolute Law Firm, P.C., we take the charges against you as seriously as you do. We can represent you if you are being investigated or if you are already facing charges for:

  • DWI/ DUI
  • Theft/ Embezzlement
  • Vandalism
  • Drug offenses
  • Assault
  • Murder or Manslaughter
  • Sex offenses
  • Juvenile delinquency and teen offenses

Our criminal defense lawyers have experience in the full spectrum of misdemeanor and felony cases including thefts, drug issues and assaults. Our defense strategies in and out of the courtroom will be used to aggressively defend you or your loved one for the best possible outcome.

In addition to defending you on the front end of criminal charges, we also help clients pursue options for post-conviction relief such as record expungement, an official pardon or commuting the remainder of a sentence.
