Individuals convicted of a crime in California, whether through their own admission of guilt or through the determination of a jury, are subject to, among other penalties, fines, imprisonment, probation and community service. Defending your case in the strongest possible way is critical to your freedom and future.The outcome of any criminal case depends upon the facts surrounding the crime charged, the strength of the evidence, the legal validity of law enforcement and courtroom procedure, and the goals and strategy of the government and defense.

We at the Law Offices of Paul S. Geller are dedicated to providing the type of criminal defense you should expect when hiring private counsel.
These are the characteristics which are common among all of our goals. First, we want you to have an understanding of the events and proceedings during our representation. It is extremely important to us that you clearly understand the charges you're being faced with, the potential consequences, and the criminal process. We will take the time to explain anything which seems confusing, and will make ourselves as available as possible to answer your questions and concerns, even after hours.
Second, we strive to keep an open line of communication between our clients and the firm. We are firm believers that in building your defense, we need to work as partners with our clients. The trust between a lawyer and his client must be held in the strictest confidence to ensure the best possible defense.
Lastly, expect to be handled with the utmost professionalism, with an eye not only on keeping you out of jail and minimizing the criminal penalties you could be faced with, but also with the awareness of how the criminal charges can affect other aspects of your life. Many of our clients are professionals and could face additional penalties affecting their professional licenses, such as chiropractors, doctors, lawyers, physical therapists, etc.
Additionally, many crimes could have an effect on your driver's license, auto insurance, etc. We will do everything in your best interest not only in defending your criminal case, but with an awareness on other potential consequences.
