Criminal Defense For Law Enforcement Officers In Los Angeles County-South Bay
Anyone can find themselves on the wrong side of the law, even those whose job it is to enforce it. When that happens, police officers and other law enforcement professionals need to take action in order to protect their reputations, their careers and their futures.
If you have been accused of a crime, you may not know who to turn to. The prosecutors you have worked alongside in the past are now your opponents. You may be worried about enlisting a criminal defense lawyer — after all, these are the people who have worked against you in the past, cross-examined you, tried to make you look bad in court. But you need help.
Turn To A Criminal Defense Lawyer Who Understands You And Your Job
At Houlé Law, we are not the typical criminal defense law firm. Our founder, Lisa Houlé, has trained law enforcement officers. She is a former instructor for the Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD), the Department of Public Safety and the LAX Airport Police Department. She is also a former Los Angeles County prosecutor.
Since our background involves working closely with law enforcement officers of all kinds, we understand your job. Perhaps just as important, we understand the unique stresses and pressures faced by people in this line of work. We recognize how misunderstood law enforcement officers are by the rest of society. We know how much is at risk in these cases. These are not just criminal charges. Lives and livelihoods are on the line. Everything you stand for is being called into question, and you need someone to stand up for you.
We defend police officers, federal agents and everyone who works in the field of law enforcement against off-duty criminal charges such as domestic violence, assault, battery and DUI. Our experience in these matters means we can work closely with your association attorney so you can get the strongest representation on both fronts.
