What happens when I’m charged with a crime?

You don’t need to wait to come in to the office- we can get started right now over the phone. It’s often possible to intervene even before charges are filed, leaving you with a spotless record. But you need to act fast to get the best results.

If you’re charged with a crime or under investigation, don’t make any statements to anyone until you’re represented. It’s crucial you consult with an attorney before you make any mistakes that could land you in jail. We can help you avoid spending time in custody before you go to court, or help a loved one get out if it’s already too late.

Whether you’re facing serious criminal charges or wrongful termination/workplace harassment, you need experienced attorneys who know how to fight and win. At Radford & Rome LLP, we use our deep legal expertise to maximize your leverage, protect your future, and secure the best possible outcome. We’re experienced working with elite, high profile clients in all manner of criminal cases, including domestic violence, sexual assault, child neglect, even homicides.

When everything is on the line, experience matters. Contact us today to learn how we can fight for you.

This firm is amazing. I really like their new Hollywood office it’s so much easier to get to than the old one downtown. These guys help me out after other attorneys were not able to and everyone was so nice and seem so smart and professional. I would completely recommend them to anybody, looking for a kind, compassionate and effective attorney. My favorite was David Rome, who helped me out so much and who I continue to ask questions of all the time but of course all of the attorneys were great to work with.

Highly recommend. Knowledgeable, honest, and more importantly helpful. They offer the best representation at a very fair price, and I felt like they were with me at every step. In my situation of dire need, I felt relieved that I could leave it to them to handle my case.

This is an amazing law firm! Their team of former prosecutors turned criminal defense attorneys brought an unmatched level of expertise to their clients and gives them their special edge when it came to their defense strategy. Attorneys Patrick Gomez, Willie Radford and David Rome each have a deep understanding of both sides of the legal system. They are relentless in their pursuit of justice and exhibited unwavering dedication to protecting their clients rights. They each have great communication and possess a strong approach as to how they will attack the prosecutions case. I highly recommend this law firm to anyone in need of top-notch criminal defense attorneys. Very kind and are eager to know their clients and their stories, and are not just after the money.

With the help of Gomez, Radford, and Rome, we were able to successfully win the employment case and will be utilizing this firm here on out for all personal and business law needs.

Thank you again to Gomez. Radford, Rome! You have and will continue to be a tremendous help for business and myself!
