  • Serious Felonies: Homicide, felony DUI, aggravated assault, drug trafficking, and other high-level charges that carry the possibility of significant prison time.

Felonies in Wyoming

Felony charges in Wyoming are among the most serious offenses a person can face, often carrying mandatory prison sentences, steep fines, and life-changing collateral consequences. In Big Horn County, felony cases are prosecuted aggressively, and rural juries can be unpredictable.

Our firm focuses heavily on felony defense because we understand how much is at stake. From early intervention during an investigation to courtroom litigation, we aim to reduce the charges, mitigate the penalties, or secure a full acquittal.

How We Challenge the Government’s Case

We believe no one should be convicted unless the state can prove its case beyond a reasonable doubt, and we hold them to that burden. Our team challenges charges from every angle, including:

  • Identifying unlawful searches, seizures, or arrests
  • Questioning the reliability of witness statements
  • Scrutinizing forensic and lab results for errors or contamination
  • Using expert witnesses to counter the state’s narrative
  • Exploring alternative explanations that raise doubt in jurors’ minds

The sooner you involve us, the sooner we can start protecting your rights and building the strongest possible defense.
