For 25 years now, Mark D. Richards has focused on providing quality representation in the area of law that affects individuals the most-criminal defense. Criminal defense is a specialized area and requires someone with the experience, knowledge, and know-how to provide the best possible representation. When a person's liberty is at stake, the stakes can be no greater. That is why the cornerstone of all clients' representation is a thorough investigation both factually and legally of all defenses so that no potential defenses are left unexplored or unlitigated. This "leave no stone unturned" type of representation has led to numerous successful outcomes for my clients. In the past twenty years I have represented clients in both State and Federal courts charged with a variety of crimes ranging from First Degree Homicide, drug conspiracies, Vehicular homicide, Sexual Assault and Child Pornography. No case is too big or too small. I have also tried over 75 jury trials, ranging from simple two day Operating While Intoxicated (OWI) trials to month long Homicide trials. If you or someone you know has potential criminal exposure, do not hesitate to call or email for a free consultation. The sooner representation is secured the sooner your rights are protected. Do not wait to be charged, many positive results can be secured before a client is actually charged with a crime.
