An Aggressive, Passionate, and Scientific Approach to Criminal and DUI Defense

Aggressive and passionate, Frank Mungo understands what is at risk when you or your loved one is accused of a crime - your very freedom is at stake!

Passively waiting for the prosecutor to bring charges or waiting for the prosecutor to provide discovery once charges are brought are the biggest mistakes most inexperienced criminal defense lawyers make. A better approach, the one used by Frank Mungo, is to:
• Investigate: before evidence is lost, gather as much information as possible;
• Analyze: if necessary, assess the evidence using the latest scientific methods;
• Respond: strengthen the defense with scientific and objective evidence.

Premier Criminal Defense and DUI Attorney with a Human Touch

Having a successful result in a criminal or DUI trial begins with a solid, caring relationship with your lawyer. Words are inadequate to describe the fear, stress, and uncertainty you feel when you or a loved one is arrested or investigated for committing a crime. The solution to this emotional crisis and the pathway to a successful result is a lawyer who listens, understands, and communicates with you. Frank Mungo wants to really know who you are and learn your situation-your side of the story.

Three key benefits of this level of communication are:
•Defending your case becomes a partnership-a team effort;
• Knowing your story reveals both strengths and weaknesses of the case;
• Presenting the case as a story that explains the injustice, persuades the jury to care and fight for you.

Experienced Criminal Lawyer Fighting for You

In 2009, I was part of a three-person-trial team that defended Cheryl McCafferty, a successful mother of two with no criminal history, who was charged with murdering her husband. At the start of trial, many believed it was an open and shut case for murder. However, the team took an aggressive position and argued self-defense.

During the trial, I cross-examined over 20 professional witnesses, including police officers, computer, firearm identification, blood spatter, and gunshot residue experts. At the conclusion of the trial, the jury acquitted Cheryl McCafferty of murder and convicted her of the lesser included offense of manslaughter 1st degree. McCafferty received a finding of domestic violence in her case. This finding made it possible for her to go before the parole board after she served only 20% of her sentence instead of the normal 85%.
