If you have been arrested for a criminal violation occurring anywhere in the San Fernando Valley, you will benefit by contacting an experienced Van Nuys criminal defense lawyer, or one whose office is located in one of the immediately surrounding areas, such as Sherman Oaks. A local lawyer or law firm with offices in the jurisdiction of a particular courthouse will generally be familiar with the habits and customs of local judges and prosecutors. This could have a significant impact on how effectively your case is handled. You don’t necessarily need to find a Van Nuys criminal lawyer, per se, so long as the criminal attorney regularly handles cases in the Van Nuys courthouse.

At California Criminal Defense Center, our local office in Sherman Oaks routinely handles a variety of criminal and DUI violations in the Van Nuys courthouse. These violations include DUI, petty theft, fraud, grand theft, assault, battery, domestic violence, drugs and alcohol related crimes, vandalism, hit-and-run cases, suspended license violations, and a variety of violent crimes and weapons violations. We also routinely handle probation violations related to these underlying offenses.
