Whatever crime you’ve been charged with, you deserve the best legal representation you can get. Attorney Glenn only takes cases in which he feels he can make a positive difference, from property crimes such as larceny to serious violent felonies and everything in between.

We work with investigators we know and trust to gather evidence that gives us a better understanding of what happened. We examine any existing video, interview witnesses, and closely examine the police investigation to look for problems. Once we get all the facts, we know how to use them to help convince prosecutors to reduce charges – or drop them completely. If that’s not possible, we are always ready to go to trial and fight for a Not Guilty verdict.

Most of all, you can expect an attorney who will fight for the best possible outcome in your case.

Gun Crimes

Connecticut has some of the strictest gun laws in the country, including restrictions on the sale, possession and use of firearms. Violations include the unlawful firing of a weapon; carrying, buying, or using a gun without a permit; possession of a stolen firearm; carrying a firearm while under the influence of alcohol or drugs; and the unlawful sale, manufacture or transportation of guns.

Many gun crimes in the state are felonies and conviction can mean lengthy prison terms as well as hefty fines. Attorney Glenn is very familiar with state and federal gun laws and the types of evidence required to convict. He will work with investigators to gather evidence that builds a strong defense and fight to get your charges dropped or reduced, or for acquittal at trial.

Violent Crimes

These include murder, attempted murder, and kidnapping. In Connecticut, robbery is also considered a violent crime. An altercation in which someone is injured can result in an assault charge. Rape is also a violent crime that the state takes very seriously. The specific charge will depend on many factors, such as whether a weapon was used.

If you are charged with a violent crime, prosecutors will aggressively pursue the maximum penalty. But the evidence may not support the charges they are filing. There may have been mitigating circumstances. That’s why we work with experienced investigators to learn all we can about what happened. Our goal is to know the facts of the case better than prosecutors.

Sex Crimes

There are numerous types of sex crimes in Connecticut. Criminal charges can include sexual assault, statutory rape, prostitution, solicitation, child molestation, child pornography, voyeurism, and lewd conduct. There are laws against the use of the Internet to commit sex crimes. “Sexting” is also considered a crime in certain situations.

Conviction for sex crime charges can result in a prison sentence and fines. Sentences can be especially harsh if the charges involved a minor. A person convicted of a sex crime may have to register as a sex offender. In addition, there is a stigma associated with these types of charges, and your reputation can be easily ruined. That’s why we investigate to get all of the facts and work to get charges reduced or dismissed, or for a Not Guilty verdict in court.

Drug Crimes

In Connecticut, drug charges include sale or possession with intent to sell a controlled substance, possession or sale within a school zone, illegal possession, illegal distribution of a controlled substance to a minor, and possession of drug paraphernalia.

Any of these charges can have a significant impact on your life. Connecticut takes a very tough stance against illegal drugs and law enforcement agencies spend a lot of time pursuing these cases. A conviction can mean mandatory prison time or heavy fines, and will stay on your record. That’s why you need a criminal defense lawyer who is dedicated to making a positive difference in the outcome.
