Dedicated Criminal Defense Attorney Serving Platte City And Platte County, Missouri

If you have been arrested or charged with a crime in Platte County, you are likely feeling a great deal of stress. This area, with its blend of suburban and rural communities, has a unique legal landscape. The outcome of your case can impact your career, especially if you work for a major local employer like Ford or a government contractor that requires security clearance. At The Law Office of Andrew T. Christie, LLC, we provide an assertive defense. We understand how a criminal charge can affect the lives of service workers, families and young professionals in our community.

A Local Approach To Your Defense

Hiring a Platte City criminal defense attorney who understands the local courts is crucial. Your case will probably go through the Platte County Circuit Court, and you will deal directly with the Platte County Prosecutor’s Office. Our firm is familiar with the specific procedures and practices at these local offices. Whether the Platte City Police Department or the Platte County Sheriff’s Office handled your arrest, we are prepared to challenge their procedures and protect your rights from the very start.

Criminal Charges We Handle

We provide a strong defense for a wide range of common criminal charges in Platte County, including:

  • DUI/DWI: Law enforcement is highly active on major routes like I-29 and Highway 92. As your Platte County DUI attorney, we can challenge the stop, field sobriety tests or chemical test results to defend your license and freedom.
  • Drug crimes: With the I-29 and I-35 corridors, drug-related offenses are a significant concern. Our Platte City drug crimes lawyer is ready to defend you against possession, distribution and other charges.
  • Property crimes: We represent clients facing charges of theft and other property crimes. These are a concern for businesses and residents throughout the county, from Weston’s tourism district to the busy retail areas of Platte City.
  • Violent crimes: If someone accuses you of a violent crime like assault or domestic violence, we will work tirelessly to protect your rights and challenge the prosecution’s case.

In any case, we will build a strong defense tailored to your unique situation. We know that good people can find themselves in bad situations. Our job is to fight for a positive outcome for you.

We Are Here To Fight For You

Remember, you have the right to remain silent and the right to a lawyer. The police and prosecution are not on your side. We are. We will handle all communication with law enforcement and the prosecutor’s office so you don’t have to.
