Beaverton Criminal Defense Attorney
If you have been contacted by the police, you need to seek a lawyer's advice immediately! Knowing your rights may make a huge difference in whether you speak to the police, remain silent or have an attorney present while being questioned. In many cases, having legal advice prior to speaking to a police officer can save you from extended interrogations, mischaracterization of your statements, and possible future charges being filed against you.
If you have been charged with a crime, you don't need someone to preach to you about what you did wrong and how you could have avoided trouble. What you do need is someone who understands your situation and can offer help. At the Law Office of Shelley L. Fuller & Associates located in Beaverton, our criminal defense attorneys will help you through your difficult situation by offering sound legal advice and representation with the goal of protecting your rights, defending your name and lessening the negative consequences of your actions.

DUII? Don’t Wait – You need to take action now.
Did you know…If you want to contest the administrative suspension of your license due to a breathalyzer failure or refusal, you have just 10 days from the date of arrest to file your request for hearing. In addition, 1st time DUII offenders may be eligible for Oregon’s Diversion Program. Successful completion of the Diversion Program can result in the DUII charge being dismissed, which could help prevent your insurance rates from skyrocketing.
Remember, just because you have been arrested and charged with DUII does not mean you are guilty. So, how should you plead? Good question. We can help you determine the evidence against you and find answers to how you should handle your case. Our experienced DUII attorneys will advise you on your best course of action, then proceed in defending you against unjust charges and harsh penalties. No, the cops are not always right. But, without a knowledgeable attorney on your side, you stand little chance of winning your court battle.

Seek out an attorney’s advice immediately to determine whether deferred sentencing is right for you.
