We Focus Exclusively On Criminal Defense
We are not a legal team that dabbles in criminal defense as a part-time effort. From our firm, we serve Mississippi exclusively as criminal defense lawyers who keep up to date on criminal law. Attorney Andy Sumrall has earned a solid reputation for his skills as a criminal defense lawyer, developed over 50 years in state and federal courtrooms in Mississippi and 11 other states. Attorney Thomas P. Welch Jr. previously served as a lawyer for the Mississippi Bureau of Narcotics. At our criminal defense law firm, we do not take the government’s cases at face value. Instead, we leave no stone unturned when searching for flaws and weaknesses in them. We will review every detail, listen to your side of the issue and inform you of every legal option. We will not railroad you into moving your case forward. If it’s necessary to protect their rights, however, we will be prepared, willing and able to go to trial to fight the charges against you.

Going it alone in hopes of persuading the police or prosecutors to drop charges is not really an option. If you have been arrested or believe you are under investigation, then it is critical to have an experienced criminal defense lawyer in your corner to help guide you and protect your rights. You need a criminal defense advocate from the very start of an investigation – or, in some cases, before you are even charged – to guide you on what to say and what not to say so that you don’t damage your case through incautious talk. To get started on your defense, call 601-533-5551 or contact us online. We serve clients throughout Mississippi and offer free initial consultations.
