Oregon Drug Charge Attorney
State law imposes severe mandatory sentencing guidelines under Measure 11 for most violent crimes. If you are convicted, you could not only face up to 25 years in prison, but also have no opportunity for parole, early release or other reduction in your sentence.
At Law Office of Steven J. Sherlag, I understand the emotional hardships associated with criminal charges. I take a holistic approach to my clients' cases, pursuing justice without placing judgment on your actions or circumstances. I will aggressively fight to protect your rights during litigation and at trial.
I never back down from the prosecution because I take my role as your advocate seriously. I am committed to providing diligent criminal defense representation to help you achieve an outcome consistent with your goals.
Is your loved one currently in custody? If so, I urge you to call me immediately so I can protect your loved one's rights. DO NOT discuss the case over the jail phone. Jail phone conversations are:
- Recorded
- NOT confidential
- Monitored by law enforcement
- Used during trial against your loved one
