Our Criminal Defense Practice

Our criminal defense attorneys have nearly 65 years of criminal law experience. Our firm represents adults and juveniles. We have considerable experience in cases involving state and federal charges.

We handle DUI/DWI, probation violations, drug crimes, theft offenses, Internet crimes, white collar crimes, violent crimes/sex crimes, and other misdemeanor and felony offenses. No case is too complex for our criminal defense lawyers. Whether you are charged with a routine DUI/DWI or are facing murder charges, we have the experience to handle your case with the highest level of competence and professionalism.

Our expertise includes working with expert witnesses. Often a case involves issues which require someone who can explain the underlying science behind a defense. Our firm works with experts who know how the human body absorbs and eliminates alcohol, how breath machines really work, why witnesses might not be telling the truth, how computers receive, store and retain and information and whether they have been tampered with. In many cases, an expert is crucial in explaining the facts of your case. The state will have expert witnesses, you need someone who understands their testimony and knows the right questions to ask.

Divorce and Family Law Matters

If you are getting a divorce, you want an attorney who has extensive trial experience. Many of the attorneys who practice family law do not have a lot of trial experience. The attorneys at Ellinwood, Francis & Plowman, LLP, have collectively handled more than 500 trials in a wide range of civil and criminal matters.

Legal Malpractice

If you lost your case because an attorney failed to adhere to the standard of care expected of attorneys, you may have a right to receive financial compensation through a civil lawsuit.
