The Law Office of Mary Ann Espiritu

The Government has accused you of breaking at least one of its laws – that's all that is needed for you to be arrested and thrown in jail. Now you're caught up in a maze of rules, policy and bureaucracy that can be complicated and confusing. You're probably frustrated and feel as if you've been treated with contempt and disrespect; you feel that way because now, in the eyes of the Government and its agents, you are a criminal. It's easy to become intimidated and afraid when your accuser seems to have unlimited resources and power. At times like these you need a friend who has the education, training and experience to contest the Government's charges; you need an empathetic and compassionate friend who will honestly and effectively express your point of view.
