San Diego Criminal Attorney

Are you facing criminal charges in greater San Diego and looking for answers?  Whether you’ve been arrested for DUI, assault, fraud, drugs, theft, or another offense, the attorneys at RJT Criminal Defense can help.  Founder Ryan J. Tegnelia is an experienced criminal defense lawyer and former prosecutor, and he understands what it takes to provide you with the best chance of a dismissal, a reduction in the charges against you, or a not guilty verdict.

The fact is that when charges are formulated by the police and the prosecutors, they have significant leeway in identifying what laws you’ll be charged under.  A simple shoplifting charge, for example, could wind up as a burglary case.  The penalties, as wells as the availability of alternative sentencing, vary greatly from case to case, even where the underlying facts are essentially the same.  This is where experience, reputation, and negotiation come into play, and having the right lawyer at your side can make all the difference when it comes to reining in excessive charges and penalties.

Don’t leave your case, or your future, to chance.  Contact RJT Criminal Defense and find out what we can do for you.
