Criminal Defense FOR college students

College students are faced with a unique position: if you are charged with a criminal offense, you may also be charged with a violation of your school’s policies and face discipline outside of the courtroom. Often, statements you may say in your college disciplinary investigation may end up hurting you in your criminal case.

Certainly, if you are a college student charged with a criminal offense, priority number one is protecting your liberty, and to that extent, you should retain a competent criminal defense attorney to negotiate or obtain the best result possible. However, it is imperative that before you engage in any interview or investigation with a school, you also consult with a competent education attorney. We are here to competently handle both processes in conjunction with each other, serving to benefit you strategically and financially. If you have separate criminal defense counsel and education counsel, we fully recognize and appreciate that those attorneys must work together to provide you the best possible overall outcome in both sectors. 

At Albeit Masters, we have a combined 29 years of success in criminal and traffic defense, ranging from minor traffic offenses to very serious felony offenses. Not only are we well-versed in relevant law and savvy in the courtroom, but we are able to simultaneously strategize to put you in the best position possible in the court and if the school is investigating you under the code of conduct or Title IX policies concurrently with your criminal charge.
