DUI and Criminal Defense

Resolving Jackson County DUI and Criminal Charges

If you need a criminal defense lawyer to advise you about the best ways to avoid the worst consequences of conviction on drunk driving charges or other offenses, contact the Law Offices of Dennis Bonner & Associates for a free consultation about your options.

Thorough Preparation and Skilled Courtroom Advocacy

With offices in Lee's Summit and Independence, most of our criminal defense practice focuses on municipal court cases in eastern Jackson County, Missouri. We know the courts, the prosecutors and the law enforcement officers. Most significantly, we know the value of thorough preparation for helping you resolve a wide variety of offenses:

  • DUI or DWI
  • Underage DUI
  • Repeat DUI
  • Traffic violations
  • Simple assault, domestic assault or juvenile assault
  • Drug possession
  • Theft, trespass, vandalism and other property crimes
  • White collar crimes such as fraud or embezzlement
  • Sex crimes

Although we don't often take DUI or other criminal matters to trial, we always prepare your defense as if we will. Our commitment to trial preparation represents a major source of our negotiating leverage for reducing the charges against you or getting them dismissed.

Especially for first offenders, our familiarity with the full range of pretrial diversion alternatives can help keep your case out of the criminal justice system altogether. Not only will you have the chance to avoid punishment, you can keep your record clean.

Some of our DUI and criminal defense clients work in licensed professions such as teaching, nursing, real estate or coaching. An arrest and conviction can result in disciplinary problems that might be more severe than the criminal sanctions. Our attorneys will keep your occupational status in mind while resolving your criminal charges, and we can also represent you before your licensing board on administrative proceedings involving your license.
