Phoenix Criminal Defense Attorneys

Defending Your Rights and Freedom

In a criminal law matter, nothing less than a strong and effective defense is acceptable. Your freedom and your future are on the line.

Burns, Nickerson & Taylor is a team of experienced criminal defense attorneys that works to protect the rights and freedom of people facing difficult legal problems.

Experienced Trial Advocates

Each of our attorneys have over 20 years of trial experience. In thousands of cases, ranging from murder to misdemeanors, we have used our knowledge and abilities to obtain positive results for our clients.

Our criminal defense practice spans the entire spectrum of cases. In addition to defending clients at trial, we provide advice and representation before, during and after trial.

An attorney is available 24 hours a day. We can represent you in jail court and bail bond hearings, to protect your rights and fight to obtain your release on reduced bail or without bail. In many cases, we have succeeded in convincing prosecutors not to file charges or to file lesser charges through representation before an initial hearing. We provide aggressive representation with the goal of obtaining a dismissal, an acquittal or acceptable plea bargain. Our firm helps people regain their fingerprint cards and provides other post-conviction services.

In your case, we will work to obtain a favorable outcome, while protecting your rights at all times.

A Team Approach

While you will work directly with one attorney throughout your case, you will have the benefit of a team of knowledgeable advocates on your side. Our attorneys meet regularly to discuss the cases they are handling. They share ideas and insights. They challenge each other with questions, arguments and alternative theories. In this way, you will benefit from the many years of experience our attorneys possess.

Act Quickly to Protect Your Rights

An attorney can discuss your case at any time of day. If necessary, we can represent the accused in jail court to obtain his or her release.

Burns, Nickerson & Taylor is here to serve you — to provide you with responsive service and aggressive representation. You can depend on our firm to do everything possible to achieve a good outcome for you.
