Defending People Against Destructive Criminal Convictions

The power to accuse is the power to destroy, and the direct and collateral consequences of criminal accusation and conviction have never been greater in North Carolina and the United States. State and federal law books are filled with thousands of crimes, from the obvious to the obscure, and each one provides an opportunity for criminal accusation. Even receiving a subpoena or being approached by the government as a witness in a case can have far-reaching implications and warrant the guidance and protection of individual criminal defense representation.

Criminal defense attorney Brad Bannon has over 20 years of experience representing people accused or otherwise embroiled in all manner of state and federal criminal trial court matters — from misdemeanor assault to first-degree murder and other violent crimes, and from drug offenses to complex fraud and other white collar crimes.

Standing Up for Criminal Defendants Even After the Verdict

If you have been convicted of a crime, your need for legal advice doesn’t end when the jury returns a verdict. Patterson Harkavy also represents criminal defendants on appeal and in post-conviction matters, as well as in civil court when their civil rights have been violated through a wrongful conviction.

We provide the accused and convicted with individualized and committed representation. No two people are the same. No two cases are the same. And no two defenses are the same.
