Experienced Child Abuse Defense Lawyer
Child abuse can include emotional abuse, physical abuse and sexual abuse. Child neglect (such as endangering a child by leaving him or her alone in a house) is also considered a crime. With more than 24 years of defense experience, I have defended individuals charged with all varieties of child abuse.
"I first chose David Owen to represent me based merely on his experience as a defense attorney in state and federal courts, but his personal and professional qualities, as much as his experience, would compel me to recommend him to others." Testimonials
I give every case my personal attention and treat each client with respect. I work hard to show a judge or jury that my client is a person and not a menace to society.
