Domestic Violence

If you have been arrested and charged with domestic violence or spousal abuse, the consequences are severe. The court can issue emergency protective orders that can separate your family, remove you from your home, and prevent you from having unsupervised contact with your children. You can even go to jail. With such severe consequences, you need an aggressive and experienced attorney like Correen Ferrentino to protect your rights and present your side of the story. During a portion of Ms. Ferrentino's 13-plus years practicing law, she worked exclusively on domestic violence cases. She has intimate knowledge of protective order issues and other aspects of domestic violence law, and she will fight for your rights. She has successfully handled hundreds of domestic violence cases, and has secured outright dismissals in many of those.

DUI/DWI

In California, police often make DUI/DWI arrests by following people driving out of bar parking lots and pulling them over-in many cases without a valid reason. If you have been arrested for DUI/DWI, you need an attorney who has obtained dismissals of numerous DUI/DWI cases because of illegal stops or arrests by the police. You need Correen Ferrentino to hold the police accountable for their actions and make sure that none of your Constitutional rights were violated during your arrest. Her thorough investigation and rigorous cross-examination of the arresting officer can result in the reduction or dismissal of your charges.

Juvenile Law

When a juvenile is arrested in California, a court will decide whether he or she will be detained in juvenile hall or allowed to go home. If the child is allowed to go home, he or she may face home confinement or other restrictions. If your child has been arrested, you need a skilled and aggressive attorney like Correen Ferrentino on the case. She can answer your questions about the juvenile court process, advocate on your child's behalf at hearings, and get your child back in your home where he or she belongs.

Criminal Appeals

Every person convicted of a misdemeanor or felony in California has the right to appeal his or her conviction to an appellate court. A criminal appeal is not the same as simply retrying your case, and successful appeals require an attorney well-versed in the intricacies of the appellate process. Attorney Correen Ferrentino has handled many successful appeals. In fact, she is so skilled at appeals that her services as an appellate attorney are even sought by other lawyers. She is a highly-effective appellate advocate, and will work to get your conviction overturned.
