Las Vegas, Nevada, Violent Crimes Defense Lawyers
In Nevada and across the U.S., laws and courts treat violent crimes as one of the most serious of all crime categories. People's need for safety and the demands of victims' families have led to harsh penalties for those convicted of violent crimes.
In Nevada, laws governing sentencing for violent crimes involving deadly weapons call for even longer sentences. Sentences double for convictions for violent crimes committed with the use of deadly weapons. For example, burglary carries a common sentence of one to 10 years in prison. Burglary committed with a deadly weapon would carry a likely sentence of two to 20 years in prison.
At the violent crimes defense law firm of Ciciliano & Associates, LLC, we are experienced in fighting violent crime charges. We have successfully handled criminal cases, and attorney G. Luke Ciciliano has worked to prepare violent crime cases in federal courts.

We can work to prove your innocence on the grounds of mistaken identity, violation of rights, lack of evidence and many other defenses depending on the facts of your case. We can also plea bargain, if necessary. In a recent case, we succeeded to have charges reduced from combined first-degree kidnapping and attempted murder to a sole charge of battery, which carries a drastically reduced sentence.
