• Consent (when legally applicable)
• Insufficient evidence or conflicting witness testimony
• Entrapment in sting operations (prostitution or solicitation cases)

Each case requires a tailored approach. We build solid defense strategies designed to cast doubt and weaken the prosecution’s case from the ground up.

• Felony or misdemeanor conviction on record
• 3, 6, or 8 years in state prison (or more in aggravated cases)

Don’t Wait. Protect Your Record & Reputation.

The sooner you involve a defense attorney, the more options you have. LibertyBell Law Group often gets involved before charges are formally filed. This early intervention gives us time to build leverage, challenge illegal evidence, and potentially stop charges altogether.
