What does a Shepherdsville criminal defense attorney do and how can this make a substantial difference in your case.  As a criminal defense attorney with more than 25 years of experience in Shepherdsville, Mount Washington, Shelbyville, Taylorsville, Radcliff, Elizabethtown, Jeffersontown and Louisville, Kentucky, my primary responsibility is to provide sound legal advice and counsel to those who are under investigation by law enforcement and a strong legal defense for those facing criminal charges in Jefferson, Bullitt, Hardin, Spencer, Shelby and Oldham counties.

If you have been accused of a crime the choice you make to consult with an ultimately hire a criminal defense lawyer could be one of the most important decisions you ever make.  You need a defense lawyer who will add strength to your side of the equation while challenging every aspect of the situation at hand including but not limited to reviewing and challenging:

  • Every action of law enforcement during investigation and apprehension
  • Evidence collection, processing and analysis
  • Testimony of informants and witnesses
  • Facts and the prosecution’s “theory of the case”

My name is John Schmidt and my mission is to reduce the impact of the charges and consequences you may actually face while seeking additional evidence or issues that can result in an outright dismissal of your case.  I provide valuable advice and counsel from the moment you contact us or call for a free consultation at (502) 509-1490.

You have the right to remain silent.  Do so.  It is never in your best interests to speak with investigators or law enforcement officers.  They are attempting to collect information to build a case against you.  Don’t help them.

You have the right to an attorney.   Ask for it.  Immediately.  Then call me at (502) 509-1490.

Aggressive Criminal Defense and Representation

What does a Shepherdsville criminal defense attorney do to help with you and your case?  What does an aggressive criminal defense and representation look like?  If you are in custody, I work to get you out.

In addition to examining and challenging every step of the process and evidence in your case, I work to engage the prosecution to discuss the unique aspects of your case and advocating on your behalf while constantly working on behalf of your best interests.  I will thoroughly assess the details and impact of any potential plea deal offered by the prosecution.  What is possible?  Are there reduced charges and/or consequences or alternative sentencing options?  Is there a diversion program or other service that might limit or replace the potential for jail time.

We prepare for trial, and review all evidence and associated case law to mount a substantial legal defense.  We challenge the prosecution’s case, evidence, witnesses and actions of law enforcement and technicians at every step of the process.

The legal defense services provided by John Schmidt & Associates, PLLC can make a substantial difference in your case, and ultimately, your life.
