Our criminal defense attorneys at Laubshire Law Firm provide the immediate legal support you need to understand your options and start fighting back against the charges you are facing, from the first call through the final resolution of your case.
Why Our Criminal Defense Attorneys?
Newberry County has a smaller but active General Sessions docket, and outcomes here often depend on attorney preparation and the relationships built through consistent local practice. Our attorneys are former law enforcement officers and a former prosecutor, and they understand how the state investigates and builds criminal cases from the ground up. That perspective drives a track record of dismissals, reduced charges, and acquittals for the clients who trust us with their freedom.
Criminal Charges Our Attorneys Defend
Whether you are facing a misdemeanor or a serious felony, the consequences of a conviction can follow you for the rest of your life. We defend adults and juveniles in Newberry County Court of General Sessions against charges including:
- DUI and DUAC: Charges involving alcohol or drug impairment behind the wheel, license suspension, and potential jail time.
- Drug offenses: Possession, distribution, trafficking, and manufacturing, with penalties that escalate based on substance and quantity.
- Assault and battery: Ranging from simple assault to assault and battery of a high and aggravated nature.
- Domestic violence: Charges that can trigger protective orders, loss of custody rights, and a permanent criminal record.
- Theft and burglary: Property crimes with penalties based on the value of the property involved and the circumstances of the alleged offense.
- Weapons charges: Unlawful carrying, possession by a prohibited person, and other firearms-related offenses.
Constitutional and Factual Defenses
The right defense strategy depends on how law enforcement handled your arrest and what evidence the prosecution plans to use. Our attorneys explore every available path to weaken the state’s case, including Fourth Amendment violations under South Carolina Code § 17-13-140, self-defense claims, lack of intent, mistaken identity, coerced statements, and insufficient evidence arguments.
