Partners James Charnesky and Dina Dieglio are highly experienced criminal litigators, each having personally handled thousands of criminal and alcohol related offenses. 

We are a small firm by design.  What we are not, and what we purposely try to avoid, is the big firm type of representation.  We do not treat cases as if they are a car on an assembly line.  We are not a DUI mill.  We are personalized.  We are accessible.  We are hands on.  We keep our practice small so we can be completely dedicated to giving our clients the very best representation.  When you hire us you have direct access to us, not a law clerk, or a paralegal, or an answering service. 

Your case will not be assigned an attorney.  When you hire us, you know up front you are hiring James Charnesky and Dina Dieglio to personally handle your case.  Both James Charnesky and Dina Dieglio will take an active roll in litigating your case.  Both the partners will be available to answer your questions and give you advise.  Our clients have the distinct advantage of having two attorneys working all aspects of their case.
