About the DeCurtins Law Firm

At my Charlotte law firm — the DeCurtins Law Firm — I work as a solo practitioner. This means that, while I have support staff, I am the only attorney working on your case. I know my clients and I make an effort to be available when they call. When I am hired to represent you, your case will never be sent out to an inexperienced associate. I will stay with you throughout the entire legal process, from the first time we talk through the resolution of your case.

This is true regardless of the charges you face. From DWI, to assault charges and probation violations, I have the in-depth knowledge of criminal law necessary to help you achieve the best possible results.

Arrests don’t always happen during business hours. For this reason I work with an answering service. When you call the DeCurtins Law Firm toll free at 866-421-1514, you will always speak with a live person — 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

My Philosophy

Respect must be earned. When I take cases, I work hard to earn the respect of my clients through good, meaningful communication and honesty. At the DeCurtins Law Firm I make sure that my clients know what to expect when they arrive in court. I take the time to talk with them about their personal circumstances and legal options.

I use my legal experience and negotiation skills to obtain the best possible results while considering a person's personal circumstances. My belief is that clients are very aware of whether or not a lawyer is sincerely interested in their case and how their result may affect their family and their future (i.e. job, criminal record, and freedom). I feel it is vital to understand my client so I can enable the district attorney and judge to see past the accusation and consider the person before them. I treat my clients the way I would hope to be treated if I were in need of a professional.

The Rae Carruth Murder Trial

My legal career has been marked by many favorable outcomes for my clients. One of the more high-profile ones was my representation of an NFL Carolina Panthers player during the Rae Carruth murder investigation and prosecution in Charlotte, North Carolina. During the approximate 12 months investigation, I represented my client during all interrogation sessions and handled all media requests.   Eventually, both my client and I testified during the Rae Carruth trial.

I encourage prospective clients to contact my office and discuss their cases with me personally. To talk with me about how North Carolina criminal law applies in your situation, contact the DeCurtins Law Firm by calling 704-315-2595 or toll-free at 866-421-1514.
