Richmond Criminal Defense Lawyer

Have you been charged with a serious crime in the Richmond area?

Being charged with a crime in Richmond carries serious consequences which can result in losing your freedom. In addition to facing immediate imprisonment or other criminal penalties if convicted, you may also face lasting consequences that will impact your ability to find employment or obtain better housing or financial opportunities well into the future. If you have been arrested for a crime it is imperative you contact a Richmond criminal defense attorney immediately so we may begin establishing a defense on your behalf. Law enforcement personnel and prosecuting attorneys are not kind to those accused of serious crimes and will move actively to put you behind bars, using seemingly endless government resources in this endeavor. By contacting The Law Office of Debra D. Corcoran, you can begin an effective defense to protect your rights.

Our firm has been representing clients for over 20 years with aggressive and knowledgeable legal counsel. Our lead attorney has been awarded a Masters of Laws in Litigation award and is one of the few women in the country who has an LLM in litigation, as well as being certified to be a Lead Capital defense attorney in capital crimes.

With our expertise, you can feel confident you have the skilled legal representation you need to defend you against your charges. Our firm provides competent and professional services for virtually all types of misdemeanor and felony charges, from armed robbery to child pornography and everything in between. We do not shy away from complex cases related to particularly violent or heinous crimes because we believe in our clients' innocence and also believe that everyone deserves legal counsel, no matter the alleged offense. Some of our particular areas of practice include, but are certainly not limited to: arson, burglary, child molestation, theft crimes (such as shoplifting, burglary and robbery), drug crimes (including cultivation, distribution, manufacturing and trafficking), forgery, fraud, sex crimes (including child molestation, rape, indecent liberties, prostitution and more), hate crimes, kidnapping, murder and attempted murder, manslaughter (both voluntary and involuntary) and SORNA civil commitment cases. Any case has the potential to be highly complex and to impact all areas of a defendant's life. We are here to limit the negative consequences by working the legal system in your favor as we protect your rights to the fullest extent.

No matter where you are in the criminal process - if you are currently under investigation or have already been arrested and charged with a crime - you can count on our team to offer sound and straightforward advice and aggressive legal representation in the face of increasingly zealous efforts by law enforcement and prosecutors to try to put you behind bars.
