We Are Trial Attorneys, Not Plea Attorneys

All too often, people arrested for a crime lose their ability to think rationally about their situation. They may say something to the police that jeopardizes their case. They may to plead guilty just to get it over with.

This is a mistake. An experienced criminal defense attorney can make a difference.

At Ross & Calaway, we defend persons accused of all types of misdemeanor and felony crimes in the Ohio court system. We have a successful record, and will work to provide a strong and effective defense of your rights and freedom.

Tenacious Advocacy from the Start to the Finish
Our defense lawyers do not consider a plea negotiation until all other options are eliminated. We prepare every case carefully, with the expectation that we are going to trial. In a number of cases, we have obtained dismissals, reductions in charges, exclusions of evidence in pre-trial motions, or diverting the case out of the court system completely.

By carefully examining all of the evidence and preparing for trial, this puts the client in the best position to achieve an acceptable or positive outcome — whether that eventually occurs through a dismissal of charges, victory at trial, or a negotiated plea.

Ross & Calaway has handled cases ranging from disturbing the peace to murder, and everything in between. In DUI/OVI, juvenile defense cases, violent criminal cases, and in property crimes cases, we will work to overcome the charges facing you.

We are trial lawyers, and we are ready and able to defend you in court. From the start to the finish, we will provide a tenacious criminal defense for you.
