Law Office of Alexander F. Harper

Most criminal defense attorneys have very flat backgrounds. They've often done only defense work. I stand out with seven years as a Deputy District Attorney where I performed over 50 trials, thousands of preliminary hearings and other hearings, in both adult and juvenile matters. I am able to relate to prosecutors and see the case from the prosecutors' perspective. As a result, I am more likely to be able to find the best possible solution to your case. I also have 16 years as an officer in the United States Navy. This has provided me with a great deal of experience, confidence, and problem solving ability. If you want a run-of-the-mill attorney who wants to take your money and plea your case out before considering all the options, you can call anybody. If you want an attorney who will carefully analyze your case, treat you as a person, and find the best result possible for you, call me. It is up to defense attorneys to hold cops and DAs up to the standards required by law. I feel privileged every day that I walk into court and protect citizens from unfair treatment, heavy handed law enforcement tactics and wrongful charges. Even if my client broke the law, I take pride in ensuring the prosecution doesn't get any freebies.
