Criminal Defense

Citizens charged with criminal acts face not only incarceration, but a whole host of consequences stemming from a mere accusation.

In any criminal case, securing quality legal representation is of vital importance.  Oftentimes by the time a citizen accused is released on bail, law enforcement has completed its investigation of the alleged offense(s)…and has determined that there is probable cause for your arrest.  Once a suspect is identified, law enforcement works from a presumption of guilt rather than a presumption of innocence.  IMMEDIATE investigation by an experienced legal team seeking exculpatory evidence is paramount to the defense of the case and the location/identification of evidence and witnesses.

The Law Office of Mark Maltsberger is a team that will help.  We have an on-site staff trained to assist in intake of cases and interviewing witnesses.  We consult regularly with private investigators, polygraphers, forensic accountants, medical professionals, and other experts in preparation of our clients’ defense.

Probate

You have no doubt heard that probate is a very complicated, time-consuming, and expensive proposition.  To some extent it can be all these things, but with proper handling these drawbacks can be minimized.

Having trusted, experienced counsel is invaluable following the death of a loved one. The prospect of gathering appropriate information, drafting and filing appropriate documents, court appearances, identifying and paying creditors, and distributing assets to grieving beneficiaries is daunting. Without appropriate guidance, deadlines may be missed and estate assets that would be distributed to beneficiaries may end up being redirected to legal fees.

A proper estate plan provides peace of mind that your family will avoid unnecessary complications, delay, expense, and grief during an emotional transition. Contact the Law Office of Mark Maltsberger to receive an information packet and schedule an appointment for a free consultation.
