Pittsburgh is a college town, and as a result, there are a lot of underage drinking cases. Born and raised in Pittsburgh, I went to college and law school here as well. I have handled many of these cases, representing students arrested on campus or at bars on the South Side, Station Square, Oakland or The Strip District. I protect the rights of students from Pennsylvania and from out of state studying at schools that include Duquesne University, the University of Pittsburgh, Carnegie Mellon University, and Robert Morris University.

If you have been charged with underage drinking, I will help you explore the following possibilities:

  • Dismissal: Most cases can be dismissed or reduced down to something significantly less severe than an underage drinking charge.
  • Expungement: You do not want any type of criminal conviction on your record, especially if you are applying to medical school, law school, or jobs out of college. Make sure you have your charges expunged, if possible.

In addition to the criminal consequences, an underage drinking conviction will lead to an automatic one-year license suspension, even if it was not a DUI. I can protect your rights at your DMV hearing, in addition to juvenile or criminal court.
