About Gang Related Crimes in Phoenix
Phoenix Gang Crime Defense Attorney
Lawmakers in our state have passed legislation that increases the penalties for crimes committed that are considered to be "gang-related". This can be an extremely dangerous situation if you get caught in the criminal justice system and are considered to be a member or associated with a criminal gang. This can come about even when you have a friend or were seen with someone who police have tagged as a gang member. This creates a situation that can quickly get out of control for the accused. It is crucial that you have legal representation from a Phoenix criminal defense lawyer who will fight to avoid the added aspect of "gang-related crime" when addressing the defense of your case. At Palmisano Law Firm, we are aware how police can become overzealous and make assumptions that are not based on fact. The number of times that this has occurred is shocking - and it is a serious matter.
