I Will Mount a Fierce Legal Defense of Your Legal Rights
I am James H. Newhouse, a Monterey criminal defense lawyer representing people just like you who are charged with criminal offenses in California. I have been aggressively defending Northern California clients for more than 40 years.
When you are facing criminal prosecution, it is normal to feel frightened, confused, and unsure of what to do next. Whether you have been arrested for drunk driving or are accused of domestic violence, I can help.
I am certified as a criminal law specialist by the State Bar of California Board of Legal Specialization. I am proud to have been included in Northern California Super Lawyers every year since 2005, and I am AV Peer Review Rated* through Martindale-Hubbell, the highest rating. I promise to provide you with the information and advice you need to make crucial decisions about your case.
My experience as a criminal defense attorney can be used to help evaluate the evidence against you and determine whether it is in your best interest to pursue plea negotiations or proceed to trial. Either way, I will stand up for you and defend your rights at every turn.
Criminal charges require immediate attention. Do not risk your future by hesitating to enlist legal help.
