Criminal Law Overview

Aggressive Advocacy When You Have Been Charged with a Crime

When faced with a criminal accusation, charge or conviction, we do not judge our clients, but provide compassionate advocacy. When negotiating a dismissal or reaching a reasonable plea agreement is not possible, we are ready to go to trial for you. At Borsberry Law Offices, P.C. in Peoria, Illinois, we provide aggressive criminal defense for clients dealing with all types of criminal charges, including the following:

Drug Charges

A drug conviction is the last thing you need on your record. A conviction will affect all aspects of your life from the school you attend to the job you hold. Drug charges sometimes go hand-in-hand with addiction. Regardless of your circumstances, we will fight to achieve the best outcome on your behalf.

If you have been charged with a felony or misdemeanor crime, contact our criminal defense attorney at 309-740-7246. Joseph M. Borsberry is licensed to practice in the state and federal courts of central Illinois.

Domestic Violence

At Borsberry Law Offices, P.C., we represent clients facing serious charges of domestic violence. So much is at stake for people facing these allegations. A conviction of domestic violence may place one's job or career in jeopardy. Avid hunters face the loss of firearms rights if convicted of spousal or child abuse. Do not put such a serious criminal matter in the hands of a lesser-experienced attorney.

Juvenile Law

In developing a strategy for a juvenile charged with a crime, our first goal is to get them out of detention and back at home or school. Maintaining as much normalcy as possible is vital for both the child's and parent's peace of mind. A clean juvenile record is vital for future academic and professional opportunities. You need an experienced attorney at your side to protect your child's rights.

Expungements

While expungements present challenges, we have the experience and legal knowledge to overcome those obstacles. A one-time mistake should not haunt you for the rest of your life. Our firm has success expunging arrests and guilty pleas that resulted in court supervision.

In addition to the above areas of our criminal defense practice, we also represent clients charged with misdemeanors, traffic offenses (including DUI), and serious felonies, such as weapons-related offenses and even murder.
