Experienced Criminal Defense Lawyer Serving Tempe, Arizona

Attorney James Novak is singularly qualified as a criminal defense lawyer; few attorneys have as much education and training in the state.  With several advanced degrees, Mr. Novak has a vast understanding of the law, communication and technical aspects that can be important in criminal cases, such as crime scene investigations and testing.  Even if you are charged with a first DUI offense, it is important that when selecting a defense attorney you recognize that not all lawyers are created equal. 

When facing a serious felony charge, you want to ensure that your attorney will fight relentlessly and with skill.  The Law Office of James Novak provides exceptional legal representation at an affordable price.  Many large law firms have extremely high overheads.  They have multiple staff and junior lawyers and all of these personnel must be paid, as well as the cost of their large offices.  Mr. Novak is a solo practitioner, and as such, is available to the clients on a daily basis and does not "field" their calls with a go-between.  You will be kept apprised of the progress of your case, and you can be assured that the attorney is fighting hard on your behalf.

As a former Maricopa County prosecutor, Attorney Novak has long experience in the courtroom, and can present a compelling defense on behalf of the client.  When negotiations are necessary, it is an advantage to know how the prosecutor will think and act in your case.  However, knowing the law "cold" is the strongest of attributes Attorney Novak brings to your case; when it is possible, court challenges regarding your constitutional rights could be filed in order to attempt to suppress the evidence against you.  When these challenges are successful, in most cases the charges will be dismissed, as there is no longer any evidence against you that is admissible in court.  Each case is unique and deserves a full review and evaluation in order to advise you what defense strategy will be employed in your case.
