A MIRACLE
...A friend of mine recommended me to the lawyer Russell Babcock who immediately took care of my problem. A truthful, reliable lawyer, with a humanitarian soul, who understood my need and made me feel completely convinced and confident of being the right person to defend my daughter... the result was much better than expected. Thank you, lawyer Rusell. Thank you for all your support and attention.

GREAT PROFESSIONAL

...The moment I met Russell, my heart knew Russell was the perfect choice. His attention to detail and his knowledge was breathtaking. Mr. Babcock instantly pointed out important details that other lawyers I talked to did not catch. He goes above and beyond my expectations including checking on my mental health from my federal case. I listened and trusted with everything Russell said. At the end, I am extremely thankful for the outcome that we got!! Absolutely incredible attorney!

Why You Need To Start Building Your Defense Now

California law is known to be extremely tough on federal crime cases. It takes very little evidence for you to be implicated, arrested, and/or charged with a federal crime case. 

If you’re convicted, you could face any of the following penalties:

Imprisonment

You can spend up to a year in jail for a misdemeanor, and up to 4 years in jail for a felony charge.

Probation

You might have 5 years of probation, no matter the number of offenses.

Costly Fines

Based on the severity and specifics, a conviction could cost you thousands upon thousands of dollars.

Prohibition of Possessing Firearms

You can lose your right to possess firearms if you are convicted of domestic violence.
