Mr. Carlin limits his traffic ticket cases and other misdemeanors to the Kentucky counties of Jefferson, Oldham and Bullitt with his Felony Practice available in any part of Kentucky.

As an experienced Louisville Criminal Law Attorney, I will fight for your rights in court when you have been arrested in the Kentucky counties of Jefferson, Oldham or Bullett.

With over 33 years of Criminal Law experience, I have represented and successfully assisted over 4,000 criminal defendants, had 170 jury trials in State and Federal Courts, helped many people resolve their criminal cases and defended over 300 citizens charged with driving while intoxicated (DWI).

Having your DWI/DUI charge dismissed is important to you, and you cannot afford to put yourself in the hands of a “once-in-a-while” DWI defense lawyer. The selection of an experienced DWI defense attorney is the first step towards regaining control of your life.

If you have been charged with a crime, the decisions you make about your case can literally change your life. It is your life and liberty that is at stake – experienced legal representation counts.

As a skilled Louisville Criminal Law Attorney, I have substantial trial experience in a vast array of criminal cases, including:

• Assault
• Conspiracy
• Credit Card Abuse
• Criminal Appeals
• Criminal Syndication
• Driving Under the Influence (DUI)/Driving While Intoxicated (DWI)
• Drug Cases
• Federal Trials
• Kidnapping
• Murder, Manslaughter and Homicide
• License Suspensions
• Probation Revocations
• Rape and Sex Offenses
• Robbery, Burglary and Theft
• Stalking and Trespassing
• Traffic Offenses
• Expungements
• White Collar Crime

I understand medical injuries from my training in emergency medical practice. I am experienced in DNA issues and scientific studies (forensics), e.g., analysis of dead bodies, causes of death, hair and blood analysis, gunshot residue, polygraph issues, fingerprints, etc. This unique background allows me a much greater understanding of forensics. It is dangerous to trust government-paid expert witnesses – a client often needs an independent scientific expert to analyze the evidence fairly.

I have handled 34 murder cases to conclusion – most by jury trial. Fourteen of these were capital cases where the death penalty was an issue. None of my clients have received the death penalty to date; four of them won outright.

Individuals found to violate a criminal law whether through their own admission of guilt or through the determination of a jury are subject to fines, imprisonment, probation and community service, among other penalties in the Commonwealth of Kentucky. The outcome of any criminal case depends upon the facts surrounding the crime charged, the strength of the evidence, the legal validity of law enforcement and courtroom procedure, and the goals and strategy of the government and defense. I will navigate you through this complicated legal process.

As a skilled Louisville Criminal Law Attorney, I limit my practice to the Kentucky counties of Jefferson, Oldham and Bullett.
