Manchester Criminal Defense Attorneys

Giving New Hampshire Residents a Strong Fighting Chance

Criminal charges can be terrifying, especially when the prosecution is trying to make an example out of you. It may feel as though your reputation, relationships, freedom, and even future are being put on the line without any regard to you—sadly, this is true for many criminal cases. At Shaheen & Gordon, P.A., we will work to ensure you have a strong fighting chance and that your humanity is not overlooked by the judge and jury.

Our nationally recognized defense lawyers truly care about our clients. Should you hire us, we will devote time to getting to know you so that we can best serve you. For instance, not only will this create a strong attorney-client relationship, but we can also use your background to bolster your chances of success in court. Our tailored defense strategies have resulted in reduced or dropped charges for many state residents over the past 40 years. Let our skilled team fight for you.

Types of Criminal Charges We Defend Against

Our Manchester attorney team is prepared to take on a range of criminal cases, including but not limited to the following charges:

  • Assault and battery
  • Child pornography
  • Domestic violence
  • Drug crimes
  • Federal crimes
  • Driving while intoxicated (DWI/DUI)
  • Internet crimes
  • Juvenile crimes
  • Manslaughter
  • Murder
  • Sex offenses
  • Theft crimes
  • White-collar crimes

If you have been charged with a serious crime, it is crucial that you have a seasoned criminal defense attorney on your side. From reduced job and housing opportunities to strained personal relationships, to social stigma, to the emotional and mental hardship of incarceration, the consequences of conviction can easily last a lifetime. Do not settle for less when it comes to protecting your future.

A Thorough, Tailored Approach to Criminal Defense

In each criminal defense case we take on, we leverage our experience as former prosecutors to predict which strategies the prosecution is likely to use. We then utilize this insight to tailor our defense strategy, doubling down on its strengths and mitigating its weaknesses.

We will also work to uncover any errors made by the prosecution or law enforcement officers, such as with scientific testing, due process, search and seizure, and the reading of your Miranda rights. A minor error could result in a dropped charge or reduced penalty.

Work with Trusted Legal Advocates

At Shaheen & Gordon, P.A., our attorney team will fight to achieve the best possible results for you and your future. We know that trust and communication are integral to criminal defense cases, which is why we take an honest approach to legal counsel: We will remain candid about your chances of success without compromising compassion. With our defense team, you can rest assured that we will fight with your best interests at heart.

“[We] are both deeply grateful to you [Attorney Joe Cherniske] for representing our son in his recent legal trouble. The result was significantly better than imagined, and we do not minimize the effort and skill that went into such a favorable outcome. You have the ability to make your work appear effortless, yet there was clearly a significant amount being done behind the scenes. I remember saying to you in our initial conversation that we needed a lawyer who could be both compassionate and tough when necessary, and you assured me you could be that person. We found this to be true in our interactions with you.”

I cannot begin to describe how much stress and anxiety you [Attorney Breda] saved me from knowing that I had someone qualified, in my corner fighting for me. I really appreciate the effort on your end and am so thankful with how things ultimately played out. My thanks to Heather as well!
