Criminal Defense Attorney Albuquerque

Being charged with a crime or arrested can make anyone feel scared, overwhelmed, and unsure of what to do next. Even a minor charge can carry severe consequences if not handled properly. When facing criminal allegations in Albuquerque or anywhere in New Mexico, having an experienced attorney is critical for navigating the complex legal system and developing an effective defense strategy.

The stakes are high when your future is on the line. You need an attorney to fight relentlessly for your rights, freedom, and future. That's why choosing the right Albuquerque criminal defense attorney for your situation in Albuquerque is so essential. Many attorneys do not have the skills and track record to take on the prosecutors and harsh judges in the local criminal justice system. It would help if you had someone who understands both sides of these cases to anticipate moves before they happen.

Why Albuquerque Criminal Court Experience Matters

The Law Office of Anthony Griego, LLC stands out with its founder's diverse background. He has worked extensively as an Assistant District Attorney and a criminal defense attorney.

He served as Assistant District Attorney in Bernalillo, Cibola, and Sandoval Counties. He spent time directly prosecuting complex felonies in the violent crimes division. This job and the experience it came with gave him valuable insight into prosecution strategies and made him intimately familiar with how prosecutors manage cases. He has seen firsthand what works and what doesn't from that perspective.

Very few defense lawyers have backgrounds on both sides like this. It allows Anthony to bring in-depth experience prosecuting severe charges like homicide, assault, domestic violence, robbery, and more. He knows what you're up against and how to counter it.
