Pennsylvania Criminal Defense DUI Lawyers
The consequences of a DUI, drug, sex crime, or violent criminal conviction can be far-reaching and significant. However, the police are not perfect and very few - if any - cases are handled as portrayed in police dramas like "CSI," "Law and Order," or "Bones." The reality is police and prosecutors are often stretched thin and don't always have the time or resources to check every witness statement, pursue other leads, or properly conduct a DUI field sobriety test. At Crosby & Sughrue, we carefully evaluate the evidence against our client while reviewing the actions of police officers and investigators. We identify departures from proper protocols, constitutional principles, and forensic best practices.
If you've been arrested for DUI, drug possession, sexual assault, or fraud, contact criminal defense attorneys Crosby & Sughrue today to schedule a confidential appointment to discuss your case and learn how we can help you.

Before You talk to the Investigators - Consult a Criminal Defense Attorney
Regardless of whether you've already been arrested or are currently under investigation, it's important to talk to an attorney before you say anything to law enforcement officers or enter a guilty plea. In criminal investigations, investigators don't always tell you what they know and don't know. If you try to talk your way out of being charged with a crime, you could end up incriminating yourself or tell investigators something that contradicts what someone else has already told them. In the end, you may go from being a "person of interest" to a "prime suspect."
