Kansas City Criminal Defense Law Firm Free Consultations: 866-457-7549

When you are charged with a crime, it is not the time to pick a lawyer at random. You want a lawyer who has experience, practices exclusively in criminal defense, knows the criminal justice system in your area, and is devoted to his clients.

I am Paul D. Cramm. I practiced law at two different Kansas City law firms prior to opening my own law office in 2000. Since establishing this law firm, the practice has been exclusively devoted to all levels of criminal defense from misdemeanor to felony. My cases have included relatively straightforward charges of shoplifting to complex DUI and vehicular homicide cases involving forensic expert witness testimony.

Success in each case can be measured in different ways. The "gold standard" in criminal defense is outright acquittal of the charges at trial, or dismissal of the charges due to inadmissibility of evidence. Success in a manslaughter case or federal charges with damaging evidence may require extensive negotiations with the prosecutor for conviction on a lesser charge, reduced fines, or a recommendation of probation as opposed to imprisonment. No matter what criminal charges you face, your defense should be thoroughly researched, meticulously planned and aggressively litigated. One of my criminal defense strategies is a simple one – we strive to work harder than the prosecution.
