The long-term consequences of a domestic assault conviction can have a lasting negative impact on your life and your family. People convicted of domestic assault are not treated equally in divorce and child custody arrangements. They also are not permitted to possess a fire arm of any kind, including a hunting rifle.
Winning cases on appeal is more difficult than winning at the trial level. It is a highly demanding and technical area of criminal defense that requires effective legal strategies, strong oral and written arguments, voluminous research, and a thorough understanding of the law.
DUI/DWI
It can happen to anyone: one too many drinks with dinner and you are stopped for drunk driving on the drive home.
Traffic Violations
Traffic laws are designed to help keep everyone safe on the road. The state takes these laws seriously, imposing fines and potential license suspension on violators. You may be innocent of all charges, or you may need legal advice or representation to help mitigate the effects of the charges you face. The experienced Memphis traffic violation attorneys at The McAfee Law Firm, PLLC are here to help.

Assault
A conviction on domestic violence or domestic assault charges has immediate and long-term negative consequences. Most clients are rightly concerned about the immediate consequences: they could end up in jail.
Murder
Martin “M” Lewis, 35, was convicted by a jury more than a year ago for the 2007 murder of Mario McNeil, an enemy of drug lord and multimillionaire Craig Petties.
Identity Theft
Homicide
Money Laundering
Lewis showed little reaction to his punishment of life in prison, mandatory under federal law for conspiring with others to carry out McNeil’s contract killing. His cousin, Clinton “Goldie” Lewis, 37, is serving a life sentence for hiring Martin Lewis as the gunman. Both also were convicted of other charges historically used for members of the Mafia, including racketeering conspiracy and money laundering.
