Charged with Resisting Arrest Charges? Turn to Former Prosecutors

Take a deep breath and remember – we, at Visco & Selyem Criminal Defense, are here to protect your rights. We have a wealth of experience and proficiency in presenting effective defenses to these charges.
Our advantage lies in our past - we're former prosecutors turned leading criminal defense attorneys, offering you the insights of both sides of the law. We have successfully navigated thousands of such cases, and we're ready to give your case the dynamic defense it requires.
In California, we understand the complexities of the two different “resisting arrest” charges – Penal Code section 148(a)(1) and Penal Code section 69 and we know how to maneuver through the wide variety of opinions on what constitutes “force”. We’re not afraid to challenge officers who may acted unlawfully or used excessive force.
Facing a felony conviction? This could mean up to 3 years in prison, a permanent mark on your record, or even loss of employment. Don’t leave your future to chance. Instead, let us fight for your rights, freedom, and your future.
