Criminal Defense Overview

Covington, Louisiana, Criminal Defense Law Firm

It is your lawyer's duty to provide you with the most vigorous, cost-effective representation possible. Anything less than fighting hard to get your criminal charges dismissed or reduced is simply not acceptable.

At the Covington, Louisiana, the Law Office of Ernest J. Bauer Jr., I take my duty very seriously. I am criminal defense lawyer Ernest Bauer, and I am ready to aggressively defend you.

It's my job to defend you, not judge you.

When we meet to discuss your charges, you will find that I am a different kind of lawyer. I will not talk down to you, and I will treat you as an equal. You and your family deserve a defense attorney who will do everything possible to fight for your charges dismissed, or to keep you out of prison if you decide to accept a reasonable plea bargain.

I am a different kind of criminal defense attorney.

I offer experienced legal defense for all state felony and misdemeanor charges. I can work directly with you and give your case the attention it deserves. But being small doesn't mean that you get small town criminal defense. I work with a network of professional consultants and criminal defense experts throughout Louisiana to help build the strongest possible case for you.

I will be right by your side throughout your entire legal process, fighting to protect your rights and to make sure you are treated fairly. I never forget that it is my job, and my privilege as your criminal defense lawyer, to fight to help keep you out of prison.

Aggressive Defense of All Criminal Charges

I defend juveniles and adults facing criminal charges from homicide to simple drug possession and theft.

I also provide aggressive defense against all DUI charges, whether this is your first DUI/DWI or you have been convicted before.

Contact my law office to talk directly with me about your criminal charges. Not a secretary. Not a paralegal. Not a junior lawyer right out of law school. An experienced criminal defense lawyer. I offer a free consultation and often arrange payment terms to help you pay for your defense.
