A criminal charge changes everything. Whether it is a first-time DUI or a serious felony, the decisions you make in the first days after a charge can affect the outcome of your entire case. Corey Beck has 26 years of experience handling criminal defense matters in Las Vegas. He digs into the details of every case, challenges evidence that should not be there, and works toward the best possible outcome for every client he represents.
Should I talk to police before hiring an attorney?
No. You have the right to remain silent and the right to an attorney. Exercise both. Anything you say can be used against you. Call Corey before speaking with investigators.
What happens at my first court appearance?
At your arraignment, charges are formally read and you enter a plea. Corey prepares clients for every step so nothing comes as a surprise.
Can a DUI charge be reduced or dismissed?
Possibly. Corey reviews all evidence including the stop, field sobriety tests, and breathalyzer calibration to identify weaknesses in the prosecution's case. Every case is different, but early intervention matters.
A DUI charge does not automatically mean a conviction. Corey examines every element of the stop, including whether law enforcement had legal grounds to pull you over, how field sobriety tests were conducted, and whether the breathalyzer or blood test equipment was properly calibrated and maintained. Errors in any part of the process can create grounds for reducing or dismissing charges. Early action gives Corey the most options to work with.
Drug charges in Nevada range widely in severity depending on the substance, quantity, and circumstances of the arrest. Corey reviews the details of every case, including how evidence was obtained and whether search and seizure procedures were followed correctly. An unlawful search can be grounds to have evidence thrown out entirely. Whether you are facing a possession charge or something more serious, Corey builds a defense around the specific facts of your case.
Domestic violence allegations are taken seriously by Nevada law enforcement and prosecutors. An arrest can happen quickly, and the consequences of a conviction go well beyond jail time, affecting employment, custody, and housing. Corey works to understand the full circumstances of every case and develops a defense strategy based on the evidence, not assumptions. If you have been arrested or believe charges are coming, call immediately.
