Providing Strong Criminal Defense Driven By Results
The long-lasting impact that a criminal charge can have on your life means that you need assertive, experienced defense immediately. At Luisa White Law, LLC, our attorneys provide diligent criminal law representation to clients in Tippecanoe County and throughout Indiana. Our priority is to get the results you need through our compassionate counsel.
Experienced Defense Across A Wide Range Of Criminal Charges
We protect clients from a variety of misdemeanor and felony charges, including:
- Traffic violations
- Impaired driving
- Immigrant offender defense
- Drug charges
- Juvenile delinquency
- Property crimes
- Assault and battery
- Sexual assault
Our attorneys also handle family legal matters. As a result, we can help you if a criminal matter is affecting an ongoing family issue. Criminal charges – especially those involving domestic abuse – can permanently damage your custody and visitation rights with your children. If you are an immigrant who is not a permanent resident, we do whatever we can to prevent your removal.
A Conviction Is Not The End Of The Fight
Even if the court convicts you of a crime, you might still have options for post-conviction relief. We frequently succeed in modifying unfairly harsh sentences through appeals. You might also have the option to expunge certain qualifying offenses from your criminal record, granting you more opportunities in your career, education and personal life.
Handling Sensitive Cases Involving Minors
Our firm frequently takes cases involving juvenile defendants or children affected by allegations of abuse. If the state has gotten the Department of Child Services involved, we will advocate for your rights, including if the state has designated your child a Child in Need of Services (CHINS). We frequently work with guardians ad litem and can provide guardian ad litem services for the court.
Defending Against Serious Sex Crime Allegations
Sex crime charges demand immediate, skilled defense. Our attorneys handle cases involving sexual assault, child molestation, possession or distribution of child pornography and other offenses that carry life-altering consequences. We act quickly to investigate the evidence, identify weaknesses in the prosecution’s case and ensure your rights are protected at every stage. Our approach is discreet and focused on minimizing the impact these allegations can have on your future.
Skilled Representation In Competency And Mental Health Matters
Our attorneys are experienced in handling cases where a client’s mental health or competency becomes an issue. We collaborate with qualified mental health professionals and use a detail-driven approach to ensure that all evaluations and court proceedings are handled fairly and lawfully.
We assist clients with:
- Competency evaluations: Ensuring proper assessments before trial or sentencing.
- Restoration proceedings: Guiding clients through treatment or education programs aimed at restoring competency.
- Mental health defenses: Presenting evidence of mental illness or incapacity where appropriate.
- Post-conviction advocacy: Addressing competency concerns that arise after conviction or during incarceration.
Our goal is to ensure that each client is treated with dignity and that the court fully considers the mental health factors that influence their case.
