Skillful North Carolina Attorney Defends Clients Accused of Crimes

Dedicated Charlotte criminal defense lawyer protects clients’ freedom

If you’ve been accused of a crime, working with a seasoned criminal defense lawyer can improve your chances of getting your charges reduced or dismissed. I formed my North Carolina firm, Daniel J. Clifton Attorney at Law, to represent clients who are facing all types of criminal allegations, including drug crimes, DWIs and assault. With over 30 years of legal experience, I know how to fight the prosecution’s case and pursue positive outcomes for my clients.

Aggressive advocate defends North Carolina residents against felony and misdemeanor charges

When a conviction involves the possibility of hefty fines, a tarnished reputation and years in prison, you need a tough attorney on your side to help protect you. I serve the Charlotte community in a wide range of criminal defense matters, including:

  • Violent crimes — If you’ve been accused of assault, domestic violence crimes or some other violent offense, I’ll use my experience to defend you against the prosecution.
  • Drug crimes — Whether you have been charged with trafficking, manufacturing, distributing a controlled substance or another drug crime, I’ll build a strong defense aimed at achieving an acquittal or reduced charge. When this isn’t possible, I advocate for rehabilitation instead of incarceration.
  • Gun and weapons crimes — I understand the constitutional issues surrounding gun and weapons crimes and will aggressively assert your rights in court.
  • Theft — No matter what type of theft crime you have been charged with, I will use every defense at my disposal in order to reach as positive an outcome as possible.
  • White collar crimes — I defend clients against charges of fraud, embezzlement and other white collar crimes in North Carolina. I’ll do everything possible to protect your reputation and freedom.
  • Motor vehicle crimes — Whether you’ve been arrested for a DWI or are facing charges for traffic violations, I have the experience needed to represent you competently.

I also help with parole and probation matters, working hard to provide post-conviction support for my clients.
