Criminal Defense
The Knox Law Center: North Carolina Criminal Defense Attorneys
At The Knox Law Center, our criminal defense lawyers strive to tip the scales of justice in our clients’ favor. We understand the resources the police and prosecuting attorneys have to convict people charged with a crime. We provide the same resources in our clients’ defense. We understand that there is a sea of difference between being charged with a crime and being guilty. Therefore we zealously represent clients from Charlotte, Cornelius, Greensboro, Raleigh, Durham, and Chapel Hill, North Carolina who have been charged with a criminal offense.

North Carolina Drug Defense Attorney
Our drug defense lawyers have successfully handled hundreds of cases involving a variety of drugs including methamphetamine (meth), cocaine, heroin, and marijuana. We handle drug defense cases in state and federal court. As with other criminal offenses we understand that being charged is not the same as being convicted. Often overzealous police and prosecutors perform illegal searches and seizures. We have the experience and skill to handle a variety of drug cases and have successfully defended numerous clients.
North Carolina DWI Lawyers
If you have been stopped and charged with a drunk driving or driving while impaired (DWI/DUI), we have the skill and experience to mitigate the penalties associated with a DWI/DUI conviction. It is imperative that you contact us quickly. If you are arrested for DWI/DUI your license will be automatically revoked for thirty days. However, with our help it can be reinstated for limited use after ten days. In addition, we can help you fight the drunk driving charge that may increase your insurance premiums and could subject you to jail time.
Speeding Ticket Attorney
For most people, going to court for a traffic violation is their first contact with the criminal justice system. We can help with a variety of traffic violations from speeding tickets to reckless driving. Our lawyers understand that traffic violations can have serious consequences. They can result in increased insurance premiums, license revocations, and job loss (if you drive for a living). We take traffic violations seriously and can help you avoid the severe penalties associated with such convictions.
