Northern Kentucky Criminal Defense Attorney
Felony and Misdemeanor Charges
Covington, Florence, Newport and Surrounding Areas

Our Criminal Justice system is both frightening and confusing.  It's not a system that you ever want to face unprepared.

But if there is bright-spot in our justice system, it's this....you are innocent until proven guilty.

If you, or a family member, end up facing a judge, the evidence must show beyond a reasonable doubt that you committed a crime.

That's where a top criminal defense attorney can help.

If you (or a family member) has been arrested, been charged with a crime, or are a suspect in a criminal case, contact one of the top Northern Kentucky Criminal Defense Attorneys immediately by clicking here.

I promise to do 3 things:

1. Take the time to explain the law, your options, and the likely outcome of your case in crystal-clear language.  And before you go to court, I'll spend the time necessary to make sure I understand your concerns and priorities, as well as properly prepare you for court.
2. Challenge the prosecution, thoroughly investigate the evidence, and present a compelling argument to the Judge/Jury on your behalf
3. Keep you informed of the progress of your case at all times.

Criminal defense is an area of law which requires knowledge of the relevant statutes, case law as well as the ability to work within the criminal justice system with police, judges and prosecutors. If you have been arrested, cited, or are the target of an investigation, hire an attorney NOW. You need an attorney to protect your rights. Michael W. Bouldin has the experience to handle your case.
