Seasoned Counsel and Aggressive Advocacy in Criminal Defense
The Nixon Law Offices handles a broad range of criminal defense problems. We have worked with clients on issues ranging from minor traffic violations to homicide. Our defense work covers such charges as rape, kidnapping, larceny, drug felonies, assault, breaking and entering, DWI, embezzlement and other white collar crimes. If you need advice about the best ways to deal with serious criminal charges, contact our office in High Point for a free consultation.
Success at trial has been a hallmark of our practice for many years. If we can't resolve your case on favorable terms prior to trial, we can take your defense to court and put our experience to use. You stand to benefit from our ability to make an accurate evaluation of the government's ability to prove its case beyond a reasonable doubt.
If you have been arrested or charged with a crime, talk to an attorney who has the experience and the guts to protect your rights and promote your interests. Criminal defense lawyer Georgia Nixon is board certified in State and Federal Criminal Law by the North Carolina State Bar Association. She is a former assistant district attorney for the state of North Carolina and has focused on criminal law since she entered the profession in 1991.
Consult a Criminal Defense Attorney Before You Talk to the Police
Contacting a lawyer as soon as you're concerned about possible criminal exposure can often be the most effective way to protect yourself. Even before formal charges are filed against you, the advice of an experienced attorney can go far to protect your interests, and even keep the most serious potential charges off the table. Working with a lawyer early in the process may even keep you from being charged with a crime at all.
In any event, the less you have to say to the police or sheriff's office, the better off you'll likely be. Even if you had nothing to do with an alleged offense, resourceful investigators and prosecutors can turn even innocent statements to your disadvantage.
Examples of the particular criminal charges our law firm can protect you against include:
- Violent crimes, including homicide, assault or weapons offenses
- Sex crimes such as rape or sexual assault
- Drug crimes involving possession, manufacture or trafficking
- Fraud crimes such as embezzlement or identity theft
- Domestic violence, including violations of protective orders or no-contact orders under Chapter 50B or 50C
- DWI defense on behalf of local or out-of-state clients
- Speeding tickets, traffic violations and driver's license suspension problems
- Sex Crimes
