We Defend Against Felony Charges
Since 1991, Stephen Rue & Associates has been handling serious legal matters for clients throughout the Greater New Orleans area. Felony lawyer Stephen Rue takes his job incredibly seriously. Our firm fights hard and does what it takes within bounds of the law to get positive results.
Our goal is to achieve the best possible results. Recognizing that each situation is unique, we use a strategy that works in your situation. We may seek to have an investigation stopped before charges are filed, to have charges dropped or reduced, or to have you found not guilty at trial. We also negotiate with prosecutors on your behalf.
The Most Amazing Person and Lawyer
Stephen Rue is by far the most amazing person,and lawyer I have ever met. For the past 3 years he has become part of my life spending countless hours,loss of sleep and a whole lot of dedication of himself to fight for me. He was fully prepared for meetings and trial with the hearing officers and in court . He is exceptionally professional and is a sincere advocate for his clients. Stephen and his associates always kept me up to date on my case and explained everything in detail. Stephen Rue WON my child support case. The opposing attorney asked for a new trial. Stephen WON !!! Motion denied. Then the opposing attorney appealed. Again , Stephen WON the appeal for me. Don't settle for just a attorney. HIRE A GREAT ATTORNEY!!! Stephen Rue.
Rue the day baby!!!
Thanks Stephen ,Jennifer,Jaime and Raul I definitely would recommend for any legal matter you might have !!!
Many of these matters include felony charges in Louisiana state courts:
- Felony DWI/DUI (drunk driving)
- Felony drug distribution or other drug charges
- Homicide/murder defense
- Battery/assault
- Rape
- Resisting arrest
- Illegal possession of a handgun by a felon
Reduction of Felonies to Misdemeanors and Expungement
We often seek to have felony charges reduced to expungeable misdemeanors. After expungement, your criminal record will not be visible on most background checks. This keeps it from being an obstacle to getting a job, renting an apartment or possessing a firearm.
Juveniles Charges With Serious Offenses
We also represent juveniles charged with serious felonies. These matters can contain complex issues of law and fact, so it is critical that you work with an experienced lawyer. We work hard to free our clients of the burdens that they currently face with the Louisiana criminal justice system.
