Law Offices of Steve M. Wells

Have you recently been charged with a criminal offense? Are you unsure of what actions to take next? If so, it may be beneficial for you to seek representation from criminal defense attorney Steve Wells. Attorney Wells has been practicing criminal defense law for almost 20 years, giving him the experience needed to effectively fight for a client's rights and freedoms. Wells is able to defend clients who may be facing state or federal crimes. While some common federal crimes include tax or mortgage fraud, internet crimes, or drug crimes, common state crimes include firearm offenses, fish and game offenses, and sex crimes. After a client has been arrested and is facing criminal charges, Attorney Wells stresses the importance of taking three specific steps. The first step is to remain silent. Do not speak of your case to anyone—any information you give out could be used against you. The second step is to not allow any searches to take place. Law enforcement will attempt to search your property and belongings, but it is essential that you do not allow these searches to occur until you are able to discuss your case with a criminal defense lawyer. The final step is to contact Attorney Wells, who will advise you of the best actions to pursue, and will do everything in his power to build the strongest defense possible for your case. Among Attorney Wells' many accomplishments, he is a founding President of the Alaska Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers (AACDL), a member of the Board of Directors of the National Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers (NACDL), and a guest lecturer for Continuing Legal Education (CLE) for lawyers.
