The circumstances of each situation have an enormous impact on the nature of the charges and the likelihood of a conviction. It is important to find an attorney who understands the law and the criminal justice system in order to protect legal rights.

The practice of the Law Offices of Timothy B. Rien is dedicated solely to criminal defense law in order to provide the high quality service and knowledgeable representation that clients deserve.

Kidnapping and Child Abduction Crimes

The firm represents clients accused of kidnapping in many situations, including charges of kidnapping for purposes of robbery or rape, kidnapping in the course of a carjacking, kidnapping for ransom, and others. Kidnapping and child abduction are different crimes. In cases of parental kidnapping, where child custody is at issue, the actual charge of kidnapping may not be appropriate. The specific facts of a given case may make all the difference in terms of punishment and the manner in which the case should be handled.

An astute attorney needs to take the time to fully understand the facts and background of each case.
