CRIMINAL DEFENSE
Carlos provides representation in cases involving OWI/DUI's, drug offenses, major felonies, traffic violations, and other related matters. He handles bond proceedings, initial hearings, motions to suppress evidence, petitions to revoke probation (PTR), arrest warrants, bench and jury trials, petitions for post conviction relief (PCR), and representation on appeal. Importantly, a criminal conviction may adversely affect a person's immigration status. In such cases, plea negotiations are critical, and one must be prepared for the possibility of going to trial. Carlos understands the care with which these cases must be handled.
FAMILY LAW
Carlos also represents clients in a variety of family related issues, including divorces, paternity actions, custody disputes, child support, visitation or parenting time, property division, mediation, children in need of services (CHINS), termination of parental rights (TPR), juvenile delinquency, citations for contempt of court, protection orders, name changes, guardianship, and a host of other domestic issues. On appeal, he also represents clients in matters involving divorce, mental health, CHINS, and termination of parental rights. Carlos has been court-appointed guardian ad litem (GAL) in cases involving custody disputes.
PERSONAL INJURY
Carlos handles personal injury cases, including automobile accidents and other serious injury matters in which another person is at fault. He assists clients in insurance coverage disputes, auto med pay and medical insurance coverage, settlement negotiations, and trial litigation. Insurance law is complex. If you were injured in a motor vehicle collision, legal representation is important for a full recovery of damages.
