DUI / DWI Defense

A DUI charge can quickly turn your life upside down affecting your license, employment, and reputation. At Fascenelli & Associates, we understand the gravity of these cases and provide aggressive, results-driven representation to protect your freedom. We examine every detail of your arrest, from field sobriety tests and breathalyzer results to police conduct and procedural errors. Many DUI arrests involve mistakes in testing or unlawful traffic stops, and our team knows how to identify those flaws to weaken the prosecution’s case. Whether it’s your first offense or a repeat charge, we’ll work tirelessly to minimize penalties, protect your driving privileges, and pursue dismissal or reduction of charges whenever possible.

Domestic Violence Defense

Accusations of domestic violence can have devastating consequences—both legally and personally. Even before a case goes to trial, allegations can lead to restraining orders, loss of custody, and social stigma. At Fascenelli & Associates, we handle these sensitive cases with discretion, compassion, and precision. Our attorneys investigate thoroughly, examining the motives behind the accusations, inconsistencies in witness statements, and any lack of physical evidence. We fight to ensure your side of the story is heard and that your rights are upheld. Whether you’re facing misdemeanor or felony charges, we strive to have charges dismissed, reduced, or resolved in a way that protects your family, your future, and your reputation.

02

Drug Crimes

California’s drug laws are complex, and the penalties can vary widely depending on the type of substance, quantity, and intent to sell. At Fascenelli & Associates, we defend clients against all drug-related offenses, including possession, trafficking, cultivation, manufacturing, and prescription fraud. Our defense strategy begins with a deep analysis of how the evidence was obtained search warrants, traffic stops, and police procedures must all comply with constitutional standards. We fight unlawful searches and challenge improper police conduct to suppress illegally obtained evidence. Our ultimate goal is to reduce or eliminate charges, secure diversion programs when appropriate, and help clients move forward without a criminal record whenever possible.

03

Theft and Property Crimes

Being charged with theft or property-related offenses can threaten not only your freedom but also your reputation and employment opportunities. Our team at Fascenelli & Associates represents clients accused of theft, burglary, robbery, shoplifting, embezzlement, and other property crimes. We understand that each case is unique sometimes involving misunderstandings, false accusations, or lack of intent. We carefully analyze evidence such as surveillance footage, witness testimony, and transaction records to uncover weaknesses in the prosecution’s claims. Our objective is to achieve case dismissals, negotiate charge reductions, or secure alternative sentencing that helps our clients rebuild their lives with dignity and confidence

04

Assault and Violent Crimes

Violent crime allegations are among the most serious in the justice system and can lead to years of imprisonment if not handled properly. Fascenelli & Associates provides powerful and strategic defense for clients accused of assault, battery, manslaughter, or homicide. We understand that these cases often involve self-defense, mistaken identity, or lack of intent factors that can dramatically alter outcomes. Our attorneys work with forensic Exceptional, medical professionals, and investigators to challenge evidence and present a compelling narrative that supports your innocence or mitigates potential penalties. We’re not afraid to take these cases to trial to protect your rights and your freedom.

05

White Collar Crimes

White collar crimes, such as fraud, embezzlement, forgery, money laundering, and insider trading, can destroy professional reputations and carry severe penalties including prison time and restitution. At Fascenelli & Associates, we bring deep legal and financial insight to these complex cases. We conduct meticulous investigations into paper trails, digital evidence, and financial records to uncover inconsistencies and procedural violations. Our firm also understands the importance of discretion in protecting your career and public image. Whether you are under investigation or already charged, we develop strategic defenses aimed at minimizing exposure, negotiating favorable settlements, and preserving your professional future.

07

Federal Crimes

Federal criminal charges often come with harsher penalties and more aggressive prosecution than state cases. At Fascenelli & Associates, we have extensive experience defending clients in federal court, where the rules, procedures, and evidentiary standards are distinct. We handle cases involving wire fraud, drug trafficking, tax evasion, firearms offenses, and conspiracy charges. Our attorneys work to intervene early sometimes even before formal charges are filed—to negotiate with federal prosecutors and protect your rights. We meticulously review discovery materials, challenge unlawful evidence, and develop sophisticated defense strategies to secure the best possible outcome in high-stakes federal matters.

Juvenile Defense

A criminal charge can derail a young person’s life before it even begins. At Fascenelli & Associates, we are committed to helping minors and their families navigate the juvenile justice system with compassion and care. We defend juveniles accused of theft, assault, drug possession, vandalism, and other offenses, always prioritizing rehabilitation over punishment. Our team works to ensure that one mistake doesn’t define a young person’s future focusing on diversion programs, community service, and educational opportunities rather than incarceration. We also fight to keep juvenile records sealed to protect your child’s privacy and long-term prospects.

08

Probation Violations and Appeals

If you’ve been accused of violating your probation, you could be facing serious consequences such as extended probation terms, additional fines, or jail time. At Fascenelli & Associates, we understand that not all violations are willful—sometimes they occur due to misunderstandings, missed deadlines, or unexpected circumstances. We represent clients at probation violation hearings, presenting evidence and testimony to show compliance or justify any alleged breach. Additionally, if you believe your conviction or sentence was unjust, we handle criminal appeals reviewing trial records, identifying legal errors, and pursuing reversals or sentence modifications to protect your rights and restore fairness to your case.

09

Expungements & Record Clearing

A criminal record can follow you for years, limiting your job opportunities, housing options, and ability to rebuild your life. Fascenelli & Associates helps clients clean their records through expungement and sealing procedures. We assess your eligibility under California law, prepare the necessary petitions, and represent you in court to argue for your record’s removal. Expungement allows you to move forward confidently without the burden of past mistakes. Whether your case involves a misdemeanor, felony, or juvenile record, we’re here to help you start fresh and reclaim your future
