Personal Attention, Focused Legal Practice
Being accused of a crime, or worse, being convicted of a crime, can change your life forever. Moreover, even if you are ultimately acquitted, a criminal charge can have lasting effects on your career, your family and your future. It pays to have an experienced criminal lawyer who will defend your rights and fight for your freedom. The stakes are too high to do otherwise.
At my law firm, the Law Offices of Howard A. Snader, LLC, I use my many years of criminal law experience to defend clients against all types of criminal charges. Practicing criminal law since 1989, I am a former deputy prosecutor for Maricopa County and am one of a limited number of attorneys certified as a specialist in criminal law by the Arizona Board of Legal Specialization. This combination of experience and in-depth knowledge gives me — and my clients — an edge.

Clients
I have represented clients throughout Phoenix and Arizona. I am frequently hired by clients residing out of state needing to resolve criminal matters for themselves or family members in Arizona. They share the need to obtain the most favorable outcome possible, whether the matter is a first-time DUI or a major felony. They appreciate my aggressive legal strategies and effective representation that strives for positive results, however complex the case.
Criminal Defense Practice
Clients who call my law firm speak with me, not an associate or a paralegal. They receive the personal attention possible only in a small firm such as mine. My criminal defense practice includes all misdemeanor and felony charges, from drug crimes involving marijuana, methamphetamine, cocaine and steroids to crimes of domestic violence. Because of my experience in the criminal arena, I am often able to identify the State's weaknesses and aggressively resolve the case in a manner acceptable to my clients: sometimes a dismissal or no charges being filed, or more often with a plea offer that is substantially better than anything other attorneys can obtain. Of course, if the matter were to proceed to trial, I am an accomplished litigator and will provide you the best trial possible.
Location
My law firm is located in the Scottsdale Atrium in the Scottsdale Airpark in Scottsdale It is easily accessible from major highways such as Highway 101 and has plenty of parking.
