Elite Clients Deserve Elite Lawyers
If you suspect you may be under investigation, call right away; We can begin to protect your rights before charges are ever filed.
Prosecution can be political. Former prosecutors know the playbook.
When your reputation, freedom, and livelihood are at stake, you need lawyers who understand the prosecution playbook and can navigate the complexities that come with high-profile representation. Radford & Rome specializes in discreetly handling cases involving celebrities, influencers, executives, licensed professionals, and public figures facing serious allegations and intense media scrutiny. We also know the pitfalls and intricacies involved in representing professionals like other lawyers, doctors, nurses, teachers, and others with licenses that need protection.
Many criminal defense attorneys don’t understand how to help before charges are filed, but we can often intervene even before arrests take place or before law enforcement refers your case to the prosecution, leaving you with a spotless record. We’ve had success with that approach even when serious felony assault, domestic violence, or child sexual abuse allegations are made, but in order to get results like that you need to move fast and retain an attorney as soon as you suspect you may be under investigation.
