Alaska Drunk Driving Charges and Violent Crimes Defense Lawyer
At the Law Office of Gary L. Stapp, I understand the emotional stress and social stigma associated with criminal charges such as drug crimes. Besides time in a jail or prison, you could lose your job and family due to a criminal conviction. I also understand how our small community reacts to local news. You may also face public shame from your neighbors, Church and other members of the community.
As a longtime Fairbanks criminal defense lawyer, I am committed to minimizing your legal consequences. I offer more than 23 years' experience as an attorney, covering a wide range of misdemeanor and felony charges. I dedicate significant time, energy and resources to investigating criminal cases and formulating effective litigation and trial strategies.
Extensive Representation
At the Law Office of Gary L. Stapp, my goal is to protect your rights and to ensure you receive fair treatment as your case goes through the legal system. I possess sophisticated knowledge of constitutional law. When reviewing your charges, I can evaluate police procedure to see whether the search and seizure or arrest was legal. If not, I will fight to have evidence suppressed and charges dismissed.
As a seasoned defense lawyer, I also provide thorough case preparation. I will interview witnesses, gather police reports and leverage the discovery process to build the foundation for your defense. When available I will negotiate your charges and pursue plea bargains to help minimize your consequences.
