North Las Vegas Criminal Defense Attorney

Defending Against Criminal Charges in Nevada

North Las Vegas is one of the larger urban centers in Southern Nevada. It is the state’s fourth largest city, with nearly 246,000 individuals living in the area as of 2018. It is northeast of Las Vegas, and straddles part of the Mojave Desert.

While its neighbor to the southwest is a notable entertainment hotspot for locals and foreign tourists, North Las Vegas is considered a mecca for industrial development, aerospace, manufacturing, and future technologies research. Warehousing companies and digital startups are also moving to the city and further developing its industrial hubs.

Such a bustle of industrial and technological activity can be a potential breeding ground for crimes. Law enforcement remains vigilant in dealing with everything from petty theft to corporate espionage, and everything else in between. However, there is a good chance that you or someone close to you may be caught up in all the legal mess.

In such situations, you should seek out the assistance of an experienced criminal defense lawyer at Goodman Law Group to help you deal with any North Las Vegas criminal charges.

FAQs

What should I do if I am arrested in North Las Vegas?

If you're arrested in North Las Vegas, remain calm and exercise your right to stay silent. Do not answer questions or consent to searches without first speaking to an attorney. Ask for legal counsel immediately and avoid making any statements that could be used against you.

How does a defense strategy differ between misdemeanors and felonies?

Misdemeanor cases often involve lighter penalties and can sometimes be resolved quickly through negotiations or diversion programs. Felonies, on the other hand, carry much more serious consequences—including prison time—so defense strategies tend to be more complex. Felony defense often includes extensive investigation, motion practice, and potentially going to trial.

What is the process for handling DUI charges in Nevada?

After a DUI arrest in Nevada, you face both criminal and administrative proceedings. You may have to attend a DMV hearing regarding your license suspension and appear in court to address criminal charges. Your attorney will evaluate the arrest procedures, chemical tests, and other evidence to build your defense. Penalties may include fines, license suspension, DUI school, or jail time, depending on prior offenses and circumstances.

What are my rights after I have been arrested?

After an arrest, you have several important rights, which include the right to remain silent, the right to an attorney, the right to be informed of the charges against you, and the right to a fair and speedy trial. You should clearly state that you wish to remain silent and that you want to speak with a lawyer before answering any questions.

"Goodman is a life saver"
Goodman is a life saver! I was in a seemingly hopeless situation and couldn’t have been treated any better by Ross and Tiffanie. He is the absolute best and is clearly respected in the courtroom. He was personally vested in my case and got me the best result possible. Thank you Ross!!!

- Brock
"We are extremely grateful!"
Ross Goodman and his team took care of us during a very uncertain time and helped to guide us through the entire legal process. We greatly appreciate how his team, especially Tiffanie, communicated with us and went above and beyond on our behalf. We are extremely grateful! Thank you Ross!

"He’s hands down the best attorney in Vegas!"
Ross Goodman is truly in a league of his own. Once again, he got another one of my cases dismissed - this time a domestic violence charge that never should have been filed in the first place. From the very beginning, Ross treated the case with the seriousness and precision it deserved. He quickly identified the weaknesses in the prosecution’s case, communicated clearly every step of the way, and fought relentlessly to protect my rights and reputation.

What sets him apart is his professionalism, integrity, and genuine commitment to getting justice for his clients. He doesn’t just settle, he wins with strategy, not luck! If you’re ever facing false or exaggerated charges, do yourself a favor and call Ross Goodman. He’s hands down the best attorney in Vegas!

"Thanks to Mr. Goodman, my situation was resolved with the best possible outcome, and in record time! If you're looking for a criminal defense lawyer in Vegas, he's THE guy."
I cannot say enough good things about Mr. Goodman. After being arrested at EDC, I contacted him to represent me in the resulting case. I was terrified of the potential consequences, but he worked his magic and got the case completely DISMISSED - an outcome that I never even dreamed of!

After consulting with a few other lawyers in the Vegas area, Mr. Goodman's professionalism was a breath of fresh air. He clearly knows the law and is very well connected in the city. Above all else, he relentlessly projects power and confidence in his conversations, a critical trait that every lawyer should have. I can't think of anyone I'd rather have negotiating on my behalf.

Thanks to Mr. Goodman, my situation was resolved with the best possible outcome, and in record time! If you're looking for a criminal defense lawyer in Vegas, he's THE guy.

"His professional and knowledge of Las Vegas law is impeccable."
Ross Goodman has got to be the best attorney in the Las Vegas area. When we needed a lawyer to represent our son, Ross appeared in court on his behalf and had his DUI reduced to reckless driving. His professional and knowledge of Las Vegas law is impeccable. I would recommend Ross to anyone who want excellent representation.

He fights for his clients and I truly thank him for that. I feel fortunate to have made his acquaintance and had his representation. The outcome he was able to secure was a blessing in my life.

- Judy K.
"Don't hesitate, hire him immediately!"
I had met with Ross in his office and within three seconds I knew I had to hire him. His right hand Tiffanie was professional and friendly and kept me informed of all court dates, which Ross appeared twice on my behalf without me even having to show up. I
