What to Expect

Whether you have been arrested or charged with a criminal violation, the choices you make at this time can affect your life long after your legal matter is resolved.

When you hire Wampler & Passanise, you get a team of legal professionals committed to ensuring you get the best legal defense.

We practice a team approach and surround your case with the investigators, researchers, paralegals, and defense attorneys you need to fight for your rights.
At any given time, one or more team members work on your behalf. The legal process can be difficult to understand. Visiting a criminal defense attorney’s office can be upsetting because it’s unknown.
