How We Defend Criminal Charges:
Thorough Case Review
- We conduct a comprehensive review of all evidence, including police reports, witness statements, and forensic data. This meticulous examination helps us identify weaknesses in the prosecution’s case, allowing us to build a stronger defense.
Challenging Evidence
- Our team rigorously assesses the legality of evidence collection. We look for potential violations of your rights, improper procedures, or unreliable evidence that could lead to case dismissal or reduction of charges, ensuring every aspect of the prosecution’s case is scrutinized.
Developing Strong Defenses
- We focus on establishing viable defenses tailored to the specifics of your case, such as self-defense, lack of intent, or alibi. By doing so, we aim to create reasonable doubt in the minds of jurors and bolster your chances of a favorable outcome.
Negotiation for Reduced Charges
- Our attorneys are skilled negotiators who engage in plea negotiations with the prosecution. We seek reduced charges or alternative sentencing options that prioritize rehabilitation over incarceration, aiming for the most beneficial resolution for you.


Utilizing Expert Witnesses
- We may enlist expert witnesses to provide compelling testimony that supports your defense. Whether questioning forensic evidence or addressing critical aspects of the case, their insights can significantly impact the outcome.
Personalized Legal Strategy
Our attorneys develop a personalized legal strategy that aligns with your goals and circumstances. This ensures that you feel supported and informed throughout the legal process, empowering you to make the best decisions for your future.
By utilizing these strategies, we are dedicated to protecting your rights and striving for the best possible outcome in your case.

What Our Clients Say

Michael is amazing at what he does! Do not hesitate to reach out to him to represent you. He did an amazing job at being attentive and keeping me informed throughout the process of getting my case dismissed. I cannot thank him enough for all the hard work he puts in.

Keziah

Mike was always available to answer my questions and concerns any time. He went above and beyond when i was offered a position out of state. He worked and tweaked things with the prosecuter to make sure I could move, accept the position, and still finish all my requirements. He put me at ease throughout the legal process.

Tyler

I would highly recommend Michael Tamou if you want a great criminal lawyer to fight for you. If I could give him more than a 5 star rating I would absolutely give him a 10, he goes above & beyond for his clients. He is very respectful & caring about his clients. Thank you for everything. He’ll be the first 1 I call if I ever need a lawyer again .
