Experienced Missouri Criminal Defense Attorney

If you or someone in your family has been accused of a crime, don't delay. Hire an experienced criminal defense attorney immediately. A good criminal defense lawyer can spend time and money investigating the case and creating a solid defense strategy, while a typical public defender, due to a high case load, can just plead guilty and hope for the best. An experienced defense attorney can minimize fines, avoid jail sentences, or even getting the case thrown out of court.

Bill Perkins, of Perkins Law Office, L.L.C., has spent 33 years taking hundreds of criminal cases to trial. Just a few of the felony and misdemeanor charges he can help with are:

  • Drunk driving offenses: including issues related to driving while intoxicated (DWI), driving with a revoked or suspended license, limited / hardship driving privileges, and more. A first offense in Missouri can lead to a 30-day period of not being allowed to operate a vehicle and a knowledgeable Missouri DWI attorney can find out if the police violated procedure, which would get the case thrown out of court;
  • Serious traffic violations and major traffic tickets: Such offenses can not only cost money, but can also take away points on your driver's license and lead to a suspended or revoked license;
  • Drug charges, including possession, narcotics sales, conspiracy to distribute, and manufacture of methamphetamine (meth), marijuana, cocaine, and other illegal drugs;
  • White-collar crimes: such as fraud and embezzlement;
  • Assault, battery, and domestic assault;
  • Theft, robbery, and larceny;
  • Arson;
  • Homicide, murder, and manslaughter;
  • Other felonies and misdemeanors of all kinds.

Our firm's attorney, Mr. Perkins, has been defending people accused of crimes in South Central Missouri since 1983. Before 1983, he worked for 10 years as a criminal prosecutor, gaining valuable knowledge of how the "other side" approaches criminal cases.
