Alaska Criminal Defense Attorney

Criminal Defense for Any Crime

At the Law Offices of Robert Herz, P.C., 95% of all cases our firm handles involve criminal defense for crimes charged in state or federal court. Although we represent clients charged with misdemeanors, our skills and experience are most needed in defending clients in federal court, in serious state felony cases and in complex cases involving specialized knowledge.

Criminal defense attorney Robert M. Herz has been a criminal defense attorney since 1988 and has handled some of the most difficult criminal cases tried in Alaskan courts. Attorney Robert M. Herz also represents clients who have suffered civil rights violations.

Representative Civil Rights case: Attorney Robert M. Herz represented a woman who was arrested on theft charges and then raped while in a halfway house. Our law firm successfully sued the Department of Corrections and the Corporation that owned the halfway house.

Defense in Federal Court

If your criminal charge involves US Postal Service, FBI, DEA, IRS, Treasury Department, Immigration and Customs, or interstate trafficking, you may be charged in federal court. If that is the case, you need an attorney with federal court experience. The prosecutors tend to be better than in state courts, the cases are investigated more thoroughly and there are harsher sentencing rules.

A federal drug charge is not your average criminal case. Trust the experience of Robert M. Herz, a lawyer who has been protecting and defending the rights of Alaskans since 1988.

"I am currently lead appointed counsel in the largest sex trafficking case in the history of the District in Alaska. I love being in court in front of a judge and jury and arguing a case and am comfortable and confident in that environment." — Attorney Robert M. Herz
