Experienced Federal Crime Attorneys for Your Case
The attorneys at Gounaris Abboud, LPA have worked for over 3 decades protecting the rights and freedoms of individuals who are accused of federal crimes. Although we have won numerous victories at the local and state levels, we have a proven record of success in federal court. With a conviction rate standing at about 90%, the skills of your defense lawyer could not be more important. While a town the size of Elyria may have a number of fine attorneys, not all lawyers are admitted to practice in federal courts.
Offenses prosecuted at the federal level are subject to different rules and procedures than those at lower echelons of the criminal justice system. Federal sentencing guidelines allow for extremely heavy penalties, including incarceration and fines, to be imposed on those who are convicted.
We defend those accused of a variety of federal charges including internet sex crimes, gun violations, drug offenses, conspiracy and white-collar crimes to list a few. While our experience in federal courts is an advantage, there is another vastly important type of experience that can, in many instances, make the difference in your case.

Our firm consists exclusively of former prosecutors and/or judges.

We know exactly how investigators gather and compile evidence for their cases.
Our lawyers understand the methods that prosecutors use to charge individuals with crimes and how they try their cases. We are intimately familiar with every aspect of the criminal justice process. Most importantly, our attorneys also understand what to look for to find the weak points in a case.
