At the Law Office of Nabiel C. Ahmed, our Bay Area criminal defense lawyers investigate and research every case to create a defense argument designed to protect our clients’ freedoms. We understand that the outcome of your case could have long-lasting implications on your life, career, reputation, and relationships. We want to help.

If there's a way out of this situation, we'll find it.

Going the Distance in Your Bay Area Criminal Case

We have a real passion for criminal defense, as we firmly believe in fighting for our clients' legal rights. One error should not have to wreak havoc on the rest of your life. All it takes is a misunderstanding, and you could land a charge as serious as domestic violence. If you were not aware of your rights and how to use them, you could be accused of evading police.

Whether a lapse in judgment on your part led to a theft crime charge, or an error on someone else's part has led to a restraining order being filed against you, our Bay Area criminal defense lawyer is ready to stand up for your rights. We believe that all criminal cases are important. Whether you were issued a traffic ticket or you were arrested for a drug crime or violent crime offense, we can help.

Our past clients have successfully protected themselves from charges that included:

• Sex crimes
• Internet crimes
• Identity theft
• DUI crimes
• Hit and run felonies & misdemeanor crimes
• Restraining order violations
• Weapons violations

Whatever accusations you face, we are prepared to assert your legal rights. Were you read your full Miranda Rights? Did officers search your car or home illegally? Is someone else harassing you to the point of needing a restraining order? If your rights were violated by law enforcement or other persons, our firm is ready to provide the tough advocacy that you deserve.
