Civil Law and Criminal Defense Representation

There are times in our lives when our obstacles seem too great to overcome and in those times of need, the appropriate help should be sought. Often times our clients call or walk into our office in a state of great anxiety. We hear things such as “I think I’m being sued. What should I do?” or “I’ve just been arrested. What’s going to happen next?”. We also hear stories from victims of auto accidents that can’t seem to get the assistance they need from the insurance companies. The legal system can be complex and stressful, we take pride in alleviating the stress of your legal burden.

At the Law Offices of Hodge and Snyder our clients have the benefit of being given the personal time and attention that they may not receive elsewhere. It is impossible to handle any two cases identically and it is imperative to your legal representation that you have someone who is adept at adapting to your personal legal needs. We work hard to make sure that our clients understand that in our eyes they are not just a case that needs to be resolved. That they can expect an attorney that will treat them and their case with the level of professionalism and personal empathy that they may feel is lacking in the legal world.

We are experienced in several civil practice areas. We feel that this broad knowledge base benefits our clients as we can advise them from several perspectives at the same time.

Criminal Defense Representation
