Strong, compassionate defense for your most challenging legal needs.
"I'm here to make sure your side of the story is told."
Attorney Eric Blankenship
Everyone makes mistakes.
You don't have to pay for it for the rest of your life.
Criminal court can be intimidating, uncertain and complex. That’s why you need a dedicated criminal defense lawyer who knows both sides of how the courtroom operates. Does it feel like your life is on the line? Are you worried about having to go to jail? Are you afraid this is going to affect your family, your job, your reputation? These are all realistic and understandable fears. Especially when there’s a chance the whole story isn’t being told. There are, as we know, two sides to every story.

What types of cases does Blankenship Law handle?
We focus exclusively on criminal defense, handling cases such as DUI/OWI, drug crimes, domestic violence, theft, violent crimes, and more. Our team of former prosecutors uses insider knowledge to build strong defense strategies tailored to your situation.
Why should I hire a former prosecutor as my defense attorney?
Former prosecutors understand how the state builds its case and can anticipate prosecution tactics. This gives us a strategic advantage in challenging evidence, negotiating plea deals, and securing favorable outcomes for our clients.
What should I do if I’m arrested?
Remain calm and do not speak to law enforcement without an attorney present. Anything you say can be used against you. Contact Blankenship Law immediately to protect your rights and start building your defense.
Can I get my charges reduced or dismissed?
Many factors influence case outcomes, including evidence strength, legal errors, and witness credibility. We thoroughly investigate every case to identify weaknesses in the prosecution’s argument, often leading to reduced charges or case dismissals.
