Clarksburg Criminal Defense Lawyers
Experienced Attorneys Who Know Both Sides
If you’ve been charged with a crime, it can feel like the system has already convicted you. But it shouldn’t be that way. Accused criminals are innocent until proven guilty so that evidence can be considered and testimony heard at trial. This prevents individuals from being unfairly punished and keeps penalties from being too severe for the crime.
The criminal defense lawyers at Shaffer Madia Law in Clarksburg have both prosecuted and defended a wide variety of cases. We believe all individuals have a right to a fair trial, even when public opinion is against you.

Your Rights When Accused
Remember, the law provides certain protections for individuals accused of crimes. You don’t have to volunteer information to the police, and you shouldn’t say anything before consulting with a lawyer. You also don’t have to submit to a search of your home or vehicle without a warrant. Make sure the police and prosecutors are staying within the bounds of the law.
