Living on the border means living under intense federal scrutiny. If you’ve been charged, you
need someone who can stand up to that pressure.
If you live in Yuma and you’re facing federal charges, you already know how aggressive federal law enforcement is in this area. The border region is one of the most heavily policed areas in the country. Federal agents from Border Patrol, DEA, ICE and HSI are everywhere. Investigations are constant. Prosecutions are aggressive. And the penalties are severe.
But being charged is not the same as being convicted. I’ve spent over 30 years defending people against federal charges throughout Arizona, including many cases originating in the Yuma area. I know the prosecutors who handle these cases. I know what evidence they rely on and where their cases are vulnerable. When you hire me, you get someone who will fight back with the same intensity the government brings to prosecuting you.
Yuma sits directly on the U.S.-Mexico border in one of the most heavily patrolled sectors in the country. The volume of federal prosecutions here is staggering, covering immigration offenses, drug trafficking, alien smuggling and weapons violations. But Yuma residents who have nothing to do with border activity can still find themselves facing federal charges.
The agricultural industry that drives Yuma’s economy has been targeted by federal investigations involving labor violations, tax fraud and immigration document fraud. Business owners may face charges for employment practices they thought were legal. Military personnel at the Yuma Proving Ground and MCAS Yuma may face federal charges under civilian law depending on the circumstances.
