Decades Of Experience On Your Side
I, Robert W. Davis, Jr., have more than 25 years of experience defending individuals who have been charged with federal crimes. I have appeared before the Mississippi Court of Appeals, where I litigated a successful appeal of a manslaughter conviction. I also have successfully litigated criminal law cases in both federal and state courts, making me particularly qualified to handle an array of federal criminal cases, including:
- Drug offenses: I have handled cases involving drug trafficking, possession with intent to distribute and conspiracy charges, helping ensure my clients receive a strong defense against aggressive federal prosecutors.
- Internet crimes: With the rise of digital crime, I have defended clients accused of offenses such as identity theft, hacking, cyberstalking and online fraud.
- Sex crimes: Federal sex crime cases carry severe consequences, and I provide aggressive defense strategies for those facing charges such as child pornography, sex trafficking and other related offenses.
- Embezzlement: I have successfully defended clients against federal embezzlement charges, analyzing complex financial records to challenge the prosecution’s claims.
- Murder: Defending against federal murder charges requires an in-depth understanding of forensic evidence and federal criminal procedure, both of which I leverage to protect my clients’ rights.
- Kidnapping: I provide a vigorous defense for those accused of federal kidnapping offenses, challenging the prosecution’s evidence at every turn.
- Fraud: I defend clients charged with wire fraud, mail fraud, bank fraud and securities fraud, developing tailored defense strategies based on thorough investigations.
- Tax evasion: Federal tax crimes require a deep understanding of financial laws, and I work closely with forensic accountants and tax professionals to develop robust defense strategies.
- Firearm crimes: I represent clients facing federal firearms charges, including illegal possession, trafficking and violations of federal gun laws.
- Assault: I meticulously analyze the evidence to build a strong defense to reduce or dismiss charges.
I understand the high stakes involved and work diligently to build strong, strategic defenses tailored to the unique circumstances of each case.
