Polk County Criminal Defense Attorney

Experience Matters

Experience, probably more than any other factor, is essential in successfully resolving matters of criminal defense. Whether it is an offense such as underage, multiple or any DUI crime, your lawyer needs to know what he or she is doing or your case can be needlessly lost. If you have been charged with crimes involving drugs, sex offenses, theft, assault, murder or domestic violence, it is your right as an American citizen to be represented by an attorney and you will want a Polk County criminal defense lawyer who understands the laws.

Studying statutes in law school and successfully applying them in a trial situation are two different worlds. I am William D. Sites, Attorney at Law and I have served our local community for 22 years, gaining hard-won experience in negotiations and in the court room. You will want to have an advocate on your side that is seasoned in criminal defense and has learned what achieves results and what does not.

How to Get Favorable Results

In addition to the areas of criminal violations mentioned above, my practice also extends to white collar crimes, violation of probation, suspended licenses, internet crimes and appeals. Conviction on criminal charges can mean heavy fines plus payment of court costs, mandatory community service, loss of driving privileges, probation, parole and years or decades spent in jail or prison.

To get a favorable result takes hard work, including a thorough review and analysis of witness statements, police reports, physical evidence and other pertinent documentation. By looking thoroughly at your arrest and the factors which lead up to it, my goal is to find incomplete or faulty police work, incorrect use of the law and other factors which can be used towards getting your charges dismissed or reduced.

Nearly any criminal defense attorney can just plead you guilty to the charge and politely ask for the best sentence possible. I believe, however, that you want better and you want someone who is going to seek the best solutions available to the charges you face.
