Dayton Ohio Legal Representation

Divorce/Custody

Divorce is one of the most emotional legal matters. One of ways we can help you get through a difficult time is through good communication. Our divorce lawyers will go into depth about your situation and let you know what you can expect under Ohio divorce law. We are always a phone call away if you have questions about your case.

Criminal Defense

A criminal conviction can affect everything from your ability to find a job, to your freedom to own a gun and go hunting. Before you plead guilty to any criminal offense, you should speak with one of our criminal defense attorneys to find out what the long-term consequences of a criminal conviction will be.

Traffic Violations

Even a minor traffic ticket can have a major impact on your life. Tickets for speeding, reckless driving, or driving with a suspended license result in the addition of points on your driver's license. If you have too many points, you face higher insurance rates or even the suspension of your driving privileges. For certain offenses, you will need to file an SR-22 form (proof of high-risk insurance) with the state. If you have a commercial driving license, traffic citations can mean the loss of your livelihood.

DUI/OVI

Whether it is called DUI (driving under the influence) or OVI (Operating a Vehicle under the Influence), drunk driving is a serious offense in Ohio. A first offense can result in three days to six months in jail, a large fine, a three-year suspension of your driver's license, several hundreds of dollars in a driver's license reinstatement fee, and the need to file an SR22 (proof of high risk insurance) with the state. The true cost of drunk driving can be many thousands of dollars.

Sex Crimes

Sexual assault, rape, Internet solicitation of minors and other sex offense charges are incredibly serious. If convicted, you face a lengthy prison sentence, as well as lifetime registration as a sex offender. An experienced defense attorney is critical in these cases.

Domestic Violence

Domestic violence allegations can arise in any number of circumstances. When the police get involved, it is inevitable that someone will be arrested and face domestic violence charges. In addition, a civil protection order (CPO) will more than likely be issued.

Personal Injury

If you have been injured due to the negligence of another party, you deserve to be compensated for your medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, emotional distress, disability, and other damages. At the law firm of Stamps & Stamps, our lawyers have obtained millions of dollars in compensation for clients throughout Ohio who have suffered personal injuries as a result of slip/trip and fall accidents and other types of negligence.

Auto Accident

Our auto accident lawyers provide personal service and attention to each client. We handle difficult cases, including car accident cases in which our client received a ticket, as well as cases involving a bus or RTA accident.

Medical Malpractice

If you have questions about whether your medical injury or loss was caused by medical malpractice, please contact our law firm. Our lawyers are experienced in analyzing these cases and identifying when you may be entitled to compensation.

Estate Planning & Probate

Many people who come to our law firm for estate planning advice are confused about the many options available to them, including legal wills, trusts and transferring assets to children. At Stamps & Stamps, our estate planning and probate lawyers will help you sort through the options and explain the good and the bad of each.

Bankruptcy

Many people who need relief from credit card bills, hospital bills and other types of debt are concerned that they will no longer be eligible for personal bankruptcy protection under the new bankruptcy laws, which took effect in October of 2005. However, at the law firm of Stamps & Stamps, our bankruptcy lawyers have found that over 90 percent of our clients are able to receive the same or similar relief under the new bankruptcy laws as they would have under the old bankruptcy laws.
