State and Federal Criminal Law in South Carolina
The criminal trial attorneys of the Monckton Law Firm are committed to conscientious client service for anyone facing serious criminal charges along the Grand Strand. We serve local residents and businesses, college students, visitors from other states, and young people involved with the juvenile justice system. We handle felonies and misdemeanors, state and federal cases, violent crimes and white collar crimes, and the related problems that a criminal prosecution can mean for you: professional licensing difficulties, driver's license suspension, asset forfeiture, and even academic discipline at a college or university.
Contact a skilled criminal defense lawyer at our Myrtle Beach office to learn how we can go to work to minimize your exposure to punishment while expanding your options for a favorable resolution of your case. We offer free consultations and accept major credit cards. Find out how we can apply our experience and knowledge of the local charging practices and court procedures to your benefit.
William H. Monckton, VI and Dean N. Mureddu both have more than 15 years of criminal trial experience. Billy Monckton, a Myrtle Beach native, is a former assistant solicitor, while Dean Mureddu got his professional start as a Horry County public defender. Clients of the Monckton Law Firm thus benefit from a variety of perspectives in developing and executing the defense strategy that will work best to resolve your case.
Finding the best options to resolve your state or federal case
Our main objective is to protect you from the worst potential consequences of a criminal prosecution. In many cases, we can work toward a sentence of community service rather than jail on a negotiated guilty plea to a reduced charge. In other cases, it will be advisable to present a fully developed defense at trial. No matter what charges you face, we work closely with you to find the approach that best fits your situation and objectives.
