We provide expert counsel for attorneys during every phase of the federal and state criminal litigation process. CDS is a legal consulting firm focused on serving the comprehensive needs of criminal law practices throughout the course of a criminal case from the initial meeting with the client, through the discovery, motion, trial, sentencing and post-trial process.

Frequently attorneys take on serious felony cases in areas where they have little prior experience. Unlike the civil process, criminal cases move quickly through the pretrial, trial and sentencing phases and each stage is critical both for the client and the attorney. If an issue is missed or a motion goes unfiled the client may pay with his freedom and the attorney faces subsequent ineffective assistance or malpractice claims. That’s why it is essential to have an expert review your case, confidentially, to make sure you haven’t missed an important issue.

With over 30 years of federal and state criminal law experience, the attorneys at CDS provide expert, proven strategies to assist peers within the legal community.

CDS can also assist with client management either directly or indirectly.
