Being charged with a crime does not make you guilty. Every person charged with a crime must be fundamentally considered "innocent until proven guilty." It is the job of law enforcement and prosecution to prove their case beyond a reasonable doubt and it is our job as Virginia criminal defense attorneys at Barnes & Diehl, P.C. to ensure that your case is resolved according to the facts and the law

At Barnes & Diehl, P.C., we offer sound legal advice and the aggressive defense of criminal charges for individuals in Richmond and throughout Virginia. As a compliment to our Family Law practice, lead criminal defense attorney Michael HuYoung is skilled in the investigation and defense of criminal charges related to a divorce, child custody or other family law issues.

False / Retaliatory Domestic Charges

Individuals involved in a divorce or Virginia family issues may find themselves facing false or retaliatory accusations of domestic violence, sexual assault or child molestations. These charges are often leveled punitively by a former spouse seeking to strengthen their position during a divorce or child custody action. These charges are very serious and can result in fines, jail time and a permanent criminal record if not addressed immediately and thoroughly by an experienced criminal defense trial lawyer.

While we are a large firm, we never lose sight of the personal interaction required to guide a client facing Virginia felony or misdemeanor charges through the intimidating process of arrest, trial and appeals. Unlike many Virginia lawyers, at Barnes & Diehl, P.C. we are criminal trial attorneys capable of preparing and presenting complex criminal defense actions at all levels of the state and federal courts. Since 1978, our firm has maintained a reputation for quality legal representation that will often lead prosecution to negotiate a favorable settlement rather than face us in the courts.
