Any paperwork you have already received — a subpoena, complaint, indictment, target letter, search inventory, bail paperwork, or correspondence from an agency — along with dates and the names of any agencies or attorneys who have contacted you.

Telephone (215) 840-9119, or use the contact form. For urgent matters, telephone the office rather than submitting a form. Please do not send highly sensitive details until an attorney-client relationship has been established.
