Fahrendorf, Viloria, Oliphant & Oster L.L.P has developed innovative defense strategies for protecting our clients' rights. We prepare every case for trial rather than rushing to a plea bargain. Our extensive preparation and courtroom reputation allow us to generate superior results. One of our strengths is the depth of trial experience of our criminal defense attorneys. Our criminal defense attorneys enjoy a reputation of being skilled trial lawyers, fierce in defense of our clients, but ready to explore reasonable resolutions.

Our criminal defense lawyers help people who are in trouble with the law-charged with complex crimes and not so complex crimes. We understand the criminal justice system at the local, state and federal levels, and know how prosecutors, judges and juries think. Whether you are charged in a complex white-collar crime, a drug crime or a DUI, we can provide you with a superior defense. We have the ability and resources to extensively investigate cases, discovering evidence and interviewing witnesses to construct the optimum defense. Our lawyers prepare each case as if it is going to trial, which gives you better leverage for a plea agreement if that is a path you choose after being fully informed of your options. If you choose to go to trial, we have the experience and ability to get results.

Thomas E. Viloria, Esq., has extensive experience in felony criminal litigation, from attacking a grand jury indictment, negotiating pleas at early resolution to conducting jury trials. This is the kind of experience you need when you are facing a charge of first degree murder, manslaughter, sexual assault, Drug Possession, other serious felonies or white collar crimes where you could be facing many years in prison.

Government prosecutors and law enforcement agencies have significant resources at their disposal in these types of cases. We have access to forensic experts and former state and federal investigators who can thoroughly investigate a case in preparation for trial. By gathering and reviewing evidence and interviewing witnesses, our criminal defense lawyers can carefully evaluate your case, which allows you to make an informed decision on whether to go to trial or to negotiate a resolution. Whether you decide to go to trial or pursue a plea bargain, you can be assured of superior legal representation, with the proper investigation and research.
