When the stakes are high, you need a lawyer who knows how to fight and how to win. At Geherin Law Group, PLLC, every case we take on gets our full attention, whether it’s defending against a serious charge or helping someone rebuild their future. We handle a wide variety of legal matters, including:
We defend people accused of crimes ranging from violent offenses and property crimes to drug charges and life-changing felonies.
OWI cases carry penalties that can affect your license, job, and freedom. We have handled thousands of these cases and know the kinds of technical defenses that work.
If someone else’s misconduct results in the death of a loved one, we can help you pursue accountability and compensation through a wrongful death claim.
Losing your driver’s license can threaten your livelihood. We guide clients through the complex process of license restoration hearings and appeals.
Students facing allegations of misconduct risk disciplinary action and possibly even expulsion. We defend students in hearings to protect their rights and their futures.
A single offense shouldn’t define a young person’s life. We defend minors in juvenile court and fight for outcomes that emphasize rehabilitation over harsh penalties.
Severe injuries can alter your life forever. We pursue full compensation for medical costs and other losses and fight to hold negligent parties accountable.
When authorities abuse their power, we stand up for victims. We handle cases involving police misconduct, unlawful searches, excessive force, and other civil violations.
A criminal record can close doors long after sentences are served. We help people clear eligible convictions so they have the chance to move forward.
