Facing a criminal charge is a frightening and frustrating experience, but you do not have to face it alone. James R. Chatto is an experienced criminal defense attorney committed to providing the highest level of legal representation.

Let’s face it, bad things happen to good people. Mr. Chatto will clearly explain your rights and the judicial process. It may very well be that the evidence against you was unlawfully obtained by an illegal search, an illegal arrest, or an illegal interrogation and is subject to suppression.

Are you afraid of the cost of legal representation? That’s understandable because most attorneys charge an hourly rate, plus a supplemental charge for phone calls, postage, photocopies and travel time. As a result, legal fees quickly exceed one’s budget.

Mr. Chatto takes a different approach and charges a flat fee for each case. Thus, you will know up front the total cost of your defense. The price quoted covers all work expenses including investigation, legal research, and court appearances. There are no hidden costs. By paying a flat fee you will not feel the “meter is running” and thus resolve your case quickly contrary to your long term best interests.

The firm’s philosophy is simple: All Adult and Juvenile criminal charges are vigorously defended within ethical bounds in order to obtain a favorable result that you deem fair.
