CRIMINAL DEFENSE & EXPUNGEMENTS

Poisson Poisson & Bower provides vigorous representation to those arrested and accused of a crime. We handle misdemeanor cases including theft, shoplifting, and simple drug crimes. We also represent those accused of felony crimes. Our attorneys appear in both District Court and Superior Court in New Hanover County and Pender County. Children under 18 who are arrested often appear in different courts with slightly different proceedings. Poisson Poisson & Bower attorneys represent juveniles who are facing arrest and prosecution.

Traffic tickets and citations can seriously affect your insurance and driving record. Our attorneys handle these matters and are often able to avoid the necessity of a person having to appear in court. We work with our clients to eliminate or mitigate the consequences of a traffic citation or charge.

In addition, Poisson Poisson & Bower represents defendants in an expungement action. An expungement is a court process to remove a criminal record. In North Carolina, a person may only be granted an expungement one time and only for a case which resulted in a not-guilty finding or a dismissal. Because of the limitations for those who are eligible for expungement, it is especially important to seek out legal advice before going to court for an offense.

If you need the assistance of an attorney, but are not in the Wilmington, North Carolina area (New Hanover or Pender Counties only), please contact attorney Christine Farrell for the recommendation of another attorney who can serve your needs.
