REAL FEDERAL EXPERIENCE

Not every criminal defense law firm is equipped to handle federal charges.

Even if the firm says it’s qualified, ask about experience. Because in federal court, experience makes a difference.

We’ve handled cases in every single federal courtroom in North Carolina.

Federal Charges = Entirely Different Justice System

Your attorney must understand the various rules relating to grand jury indictments, evidence discovery, and deadlines for filing legal motions – and how to work with these rules to get the best result possible under the circumstances.

If you have been charged in federal court, contact Marcilliat & Mills PLLC by email or call 919-838-6643. We will give you a clear explanation of the federal mandatory minimum sentencing guidelines and what to expect. If you hire us to defend you, we will work aggressively to help you protect your rights.

Does Your Case Belong In State Court Instead?

Whenever possible, we fight to have your felony charges reduced to a misdemeanor and returned to the state criminal justice system.

What Other Questions Should You Be Asking?

You should be asking whether the defense attorney you choose to hire has the experience, knowledge, and dedication to “playing the game” in federal court – where it is an entirely different playing field than in state court.

At Marcilliat & Mills PLLC, we have federal trial experience (as well as sentencing hearing experience) fighting charges commonly brought by U.S. District Attorneys.

We’ve fought the following types of charges in federal court:
