Greg Girard and Mark Prothero have been practicing Criminal Law for over 50 years combined.  The expertise they have developed allows them to represent defendants charged with the simplest of crimes to crimes of severe magnitude.  These nationally renowned criminal law attorneys are qualified to represent defendants in every type of court environment, from Municipal Courts to the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals, including persons who are facing the death penalty.

Greg and Mark can defend clients against all types of misdemeanor charges, including D.U.I.s, reckless driving, street racing, negligent driving, hit and run, and driver’s license violations.  Their work with these crimes also includes representation at administrative hearings before the Department of Licensing.  Other misdemeanor charges that they defend include theft, domestic violence, and drug and alcohol-related offenses.


Mark and Greg also have decades of experience in the defense of felonies including murder, manslaughter, sex offenses, drug offenses, offenses involving firearms, vehicular assault and vehicular homicide, and “strike” offenses such as robbery, burglary, kidnapping, and assault.  They are also experienced in the use of forensic DNA in criminal investigations.  With their experience, together with the substantial resources of a firm such as Hanis Irvine Prothero, persons requiring defense in a serious criminal matter can be assured that they will have every protection afforded by the law and by the Constitution. 

In addition to the defense of people charged with misdemeanors and felonies, our Criminal Law Department can also assist clients in many related ways.  They can assist clients with extradition issues and civil actions for unlawful detentions; can help defendants in obtaining vacations of criminal convictions and also in getting certificates of rehabilitation.  They can also assist clients with a post-conviction restoration of their civil rights, including their right to vote and their right to possess firearms, through the expunging of a client’s criminal history  [read article to learn more].
