Washington DC Criminal Defense Lawyers
Criminal Law Information
Being accused of a crime can turn your whole life upside down. Long before a trial, you face missed work because of time in custody, and negative work and family consequences from criminal charges. Bail can be very expensive for an ordinary family without thousands tucked away for emergencies. And then there's the emotional stress of facing time in prison, steep fines, the loss of a drivers license, life with a criminal record and other results of a criminal conviction. If you're facing these life-changing penalties, you need competent, aggressive legal representation at the earliest stage possible.
Meng & Alpert, LLC can help. Our Bethesda criminal defense attorneys are former prosecutors, which means we understand how the other side thinks, how they investigate and how they win cases -- and we can use that information to your advantage. We also know the courts, the judges and the prosecutors in southern Maryland intimately. Partner George E. Meng has practiced law in the Capitol area for more than three decades; partner Andrew Alpert has worked as a prosecutor for the state's attorney's offices in Montgomery, Prince George's and Charles Counties; Joseph P. Hart is a licensed attorney with 35 years of experience in public and private practice. Andrew Alpert is highly knowledgeable in DUI/DWI law and has received advanced training in these cases as a prosecutor, has handled high-profile Maryland DUI/DWI cases and speaks to law enforcement about alcohol-impaired driving and the law.
