About Us
Our Mission:
Your freedom is our focus. At Tidewater Defenders, we strive to protect the rights of ever client by providing transparent, adaptable, and comprehensive representation, both while the criminal case progresses and even after the case concludes.
Our Core Values:
TRANSPARENT:
We will not lie to you to get a client’s business. Some lawyers say whatever is necessary to get paid. From the initial case screening to the conclusion of the case, every client deserves to know the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth. Every client will have access to their files, as well as any documents sent or received in his or her case. Questions about case status are always welcome.
ADAPTABLE:
Though we never like surprises, we recognize that the practice of law comes with many twists and turns. We will be ready to navigate changes in the case, as well as the legal landscape as a whole. We recognize that economic conditions, for example, may not allow
clients to drive to an office. We will have technology ready for online meetings and e-signing that complies with law.
COMPREHENSIVE:
When a person becomes a client, our representation does not end at the conclusion of the case. We recognize that criminal defendants should not be defined by their charges forever. We want to assist our clients in growing as a whole person, pointing them to educational, financial, employment, and spiritual resources. The client is not a bottom line in our
business. The client is our business.
We're available 24/7 to support you
