Criminal Defense Attorney
in Long Beach, CA

When facing any criminal matter that can deeply affect your life, results count. You may be at risk for jail or prison time, heavy fines, long probation periods, and other actions ordered by the court. You will not only be at risk for these types of penalties but the collateral damage of a permanent criminal record. These records can be accessed online in a routine background check by future employers, landlords, educational institutions, and professional licensing agencies. For noncitizens, a criminal record can create immigration problems. 

With all the above on the line, you should not take chances in court without a proven defender by your side. That is what you will find at Frisco Law Offices where our criminal defense lawyer in Long Beach has been fighting for clients since 1993. Our firm is dedicated to seeking the results you need and deserve; we exhaust all available legal avenues in doing so.
