Litigation and Representation before Major Criminal Courts
Özer Law Office has the capability to act on behalf of its clients in criminal courts at every level, including dual jurisdiction high criminal courts. Our attorneys handle the entire litigation process from motion practice to the evidence-taking stage, cross-examination of witnesses at hearings and trials, and the argument and presentation of evidence before judges and juries.

Regardless of the nature or severity of the allegations against you, our firm is dedicated to providing diligent, ethical, aggressive, and shrewd representation to protect your interests.
Legal Assistance for Complainants and Accused
Criminal law isn’t just about representing the accused. At Özer Law Office, we also represent the victims of crime. We guide clients through all aspects of the justice process for victims, from reporting a crime and filing criminal charges to pursuing compensation and providing support and advocacy throughout. For the accused, we focus on due process rights, protection against unjust treatment, and our own duties under the law to pursue the most favorable outcome for them, whether that means an acquittal, reduced charges, or even altruistic alternatives such as conviction prevention when possible. Because our clients are people, we bring an understanding approach to the difficulties faced by both victims and defendants-the range of emotions and technicalities experienced in so turbulent a process-and offer compassionate, intelligent representation in every matter.

- Providing advice during police interviews and investigations
- Preparing and filing motions
- Negotiating settlement offers or pleas
- Representing our clients at bail hearings, arraignments, and trial
