Greeley Criminal Defense Lawyer

Being arrested or accused of a crime can affect nearly every part of your life. Depending on the charge, you may face jail, fines, probation, loss of employment, restrictions on your rights, or lasting damage to your reputation.

You should not assume that an arrest will automatically result in a conviction. The prosecution must prove its case, and there may be important questions involving the evidence, witnesses, police procedures, searches, statements, or constitutional rights.

As a Greeley criminal defense lawyer and former prosecutor, Brandon Marinoff understands how the government approaches criminal cases. He carefully analyzes the facts, identifies weaknesses in the prosecution’s case, and helps clients understand their available defenses.

Criminal Cases We Handle

DUI and DWAI
Drug possession and distribution

Assault and violent offenses
Theft and property crimes
Felony and misdemeanor charges
Traffic offenses
Probation violations

Greeley DUI Lawyer

A DUI or DWAI arrest can create two separate problems: a criminal court case and a driver’s license matter. Deadlines may apply, so it is important to obtain legal guidance as soon as possible.

A Greeley DUI lawyer can review the traffic stop, field sobriety testing, chemical test results, officer reports, and other evidence. Our firm helps clients understand both the criminal and driver’s license consequences of a Colorado DUI charge.

Greeley Drug Crime Attorney

Brandon’s experience as the former head of the Weld County Drug Task Force gives him substantial knowledge of drug investigations and prosecutions.

Search and seizure
Search warrants
Confidential informants
Surveillance
Vehicle searches
Possession versus intent to distribute
Laboratory testing
Statements made to police
Constructive possession
Drug task force investigations

If you need a Greeley drug crime lawyer, our firm can examine how the investigation was conducted and determine whether the government’s evidence can be challenged.

Domestic Violence Defense in Greeley

A domestic violence arrest can quickly affect your freedom, home, family, employment, and ability to possess firearms. A protection order may also prevent you from returning home or communicating with certain family members.

Brandon Marinoff represents clients accused of domestic violence-related offenses and works to protect their rights while helping them comply with court orders.

Deportation and Removal Defense

Removal proceedings can place your family, career, and future in the United States at risk. If you receive a Notice to Appear, are detained by immigration authorities, or believe you may face deportation, speak with an immigration attorney promptly.

A Greeley deportation lawyer can evaluate your immigration history, family relationships, criminal record, and possible forms of relief. Depending on the circumstances, options may include asylum, cancellation of removal, adjustment of status, waivers, or other defenses.

Green Cards and Citizenship

Our firm helps eligible clients pursue lawful permanent residence through marriage, family relationships, employment, humanitarian programs, and other available pathways.

We also assist permanent residents who want to become United States citizens. A Greeley citizenship attorney can review your eligibility, identify potential complications, prepare your application, and help you get ready for the naturalization process.

Criminal Charges and Immigration Consequences

Criminal and immigration law frequently overlap. Even a misdemeanor charge or negotiated plea may create serious consequences for someone who is not a United States citizen.

A criminal case may affect:

Lawful permanent residence
Visa eligibility
Naturalization
Admissibility
Immigration detention
Removal or deportation
Eligibility for future immigration benefits

Brandon’s experience in both areas allows him to consider the criminal and immigration consequences of a case together. This is especially important for green card holders, visa holders, DACA recipients, and undocumented individuals facing criminal allegations.
