Why You Need a Criminal Defense Lawyer

Being arrested or charged with a crime is not the same as being guilty—but the justice system doesn’t always treat you that way. That’s why having an experienced criminal defense attorney can make all the difference in the outcome of your case.

What a Criminal Defense Lawyer Does

A good defense attorney does far more than show up in court. We investigate the facts, challenge the evidence, negotiate with prosecutors, and fight for your best interests at every stage.

Consequences of a Criminal Conviction

Even a first-time offense can carry serious consequences:

• Jail or prison time

• Heavy fines

• Probation or parole

• Loss of professional licenses

• Loss of gun rights

• Immigration consequences

• Damage to your personal and professional reputation

Pasquali Law Firm works to minimize or eliminate these consequences by building the strongest defense possible.

Types of Criminal Charges We Defend

At Pasquali Law Firm, we handle a wide range of criminal cases. Whether you’re accused of a non-violent misdemeanor or a serious felony, we’re ready to stand by your side.

DUI and DWI Charges

Driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs is one of the most common criminal charges in Oklahoma. We challenge every part of the case—from the traffic stop to the breathalyzer results.

Drug Offenses

From possession of marijuana to trafficking meth or fentanyl, Oklahoma has strict drug laws. We fight to suppress unlawful searches and push for reduced or dismissed charges.

Domestic Violence

Allegations of domestic abuse can destroy your life, even before you’re convicted. We know how to handle these emotionally charged cases with care and precision.

Theft and Property Crimes

Burglary, shoplifting, embezzlement, or grand larceny—these charges can damage your credibility and career. We investigate your case thoroughly and aim for the best outcome.

Assault and Battery

Whether it’s a bar fight or a road rage incident, assault charges often come down to witness testimony and perspective. We protect your rights and tell your side of the story.

Gun and Weapon Charges

Oklahoma is a gun-friendly state, but violations of firearm laws can lead to serious penalties. We defend your Second Amendment rights while navigating the legal complexities.

Juvenile Crimes

A mistake shouldn’t define your child’s future. We help minors and their families deal with the juvenile justice system and protect their records.

The Criminal Court Process in Oklahoma

Understanding what to expect can take some of the fear out of facing criminal charges. Here’s a step-by-step overview of the criminal justice process in Oklahoma.

Step 1: Arrest or Citation

You may be arrested or issued a citation, depending on the nature of the crime. At this point, the clock starts ticking on your defense.

Step 2: Arraignment

This is your first court appearance where charges are formally presented, and you enter a plea. We’ll be there to advise you and argue for bail if necessary.

Step 3: Discovery and Investigation

We gather all evidence against you—and conduct our own investigation. This may include video footage, witness interviews, or expert testimony.

Step 4: Motions and Hearings

We may file motions to suppress evidence or dismiss charges if your rights were violated.

Step 5: Negotiation or Trial

In some cases, negotiating a plea deal is in your best interest. In others, we take your case to trial and fight for an acquittal.

Step 6: Sentencing or Case Dismissal

If you’re convicted, we work to minimize the sentence. If we win, your case is dismissed and you can move forward.

What to Do If You’re Arrested or Charged

The moments after an arrest are critical. Here’s what you should—and shouldn’t—do to protect yourself.

Stay Calm and Silent

You have the right to remain silent. Use it. Anything you say can be twisted and used against you.

Don’t Consent to a Search

If police ask to search your car, home, or belongings—say no unless they have a warrant.

Ask for a Lawyer Immediately

Don’t try to explain or argue your way out. The first thing you should say is, “I want to speak to my attorney.”

Contact Pasquali Law Firm

We’ll respond quickly, review your case, and start building your defense.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Will I Go to Jail?

Not necessarily. Many factors influence sentencing, including your criminal history, the severity of the offense, and the strength of your legal defense. We’ll do everything possible to keep you out of jail.

What If I’m Innocent?

Then we’ll fight to prove it. False accusations happen more often than people think, and we’ll build a defense that clears your name.

Can I Get My Record Expunged?

In many cases, yes. Once your case is dismissed or enough time has passed, you may be eligible to have your criminal record sealed or erased. We can guide you through the expungement process.

Costs depend on the complexity of your case, but we offer transparent pricing and flexible payment options. Your freedom is worth investing in.
