Criminal Defense Lawyers Serving Boise & Meridian, Idaho

At Shep Law Group, we believe that every person deserves a strong defense and fair treatment under the law—no matter the charges they face. Being accused of a crime can be one of the most overwhelming experiences of your life. You may feel frightened, confused, or even hopeless as you face the criminal justice system. Whether you’re under investigation, have just been arrested, or are already facing formal charges, it’s critical to have experienced legal counsel by your side from the very beginning.

Our criminal defense team provides aggressive, strategic representation for individuals across Boise, Meridian, Ada County, Canyon County, and throughout the state of Idaho. We handle a wide range of misdemeanor and felony cases and are fully committed to protecting your rights, your freedom, and your future.

Protecting Your Rights at Every Stage

Criminal charges can arise from a variety of situations—some that happen in an instant, and others that result from long investigations or misunderstandings. Regardless of the circumstances, your legal rights must be respected at all times. The earlier you contact an attorney, the better your chances of securing a favorable outcome.

We work with clients at every stage of a criminal matter, including:

– Pre-arrest investigations
– Arrests and interrogations
– Bail hearings
– Arraignments
– Plea negotiations
– Motion hearings
– Trials and sentencing
– Appeals and post-conviction relief

You should never navigate any part of this process alone. Law enforcement and prosecutors have vast resources and experience—and their goal is to secure a conviction. We level the playing field by fighting back with knowledge, preparation, and a relentless focus on your defense.

Types of Criminal Cases We Handle

Shep Law Group defends clients against a wide spectrum of charges, including but not limited to:

– DUI/DWAI and traffic-related offenses
– Drug possession, trafficking, and distribution
– Domestic violence and no-contact order violations
– Assault and battery
– Harassment and stalking
– Sex crimes, including rape and exploitation
– Theft, burglary, and robbery
– Juvenile offenses
– White-collar crimes and fraud
– Probation violations

Each case is unique, and the stakes are high. A conviction could mean time in jail or prison, loss of employment, professional license consequences, immigration issues, and permanent damage to your reputation. With so much on the line, you need a defense attorney who will treat your case with the seriousness and attention it deserves.

Your Defense Strategy Starts Here

We approach every case with a personalized strategy designed around your specific situation. No two cases are alike, and we take the time to understand every detail of your case—your background, your goals, and the evidence being used against you. From there, we build a solid defense to either fight for dismissal, seek reduction in charges, or secure a favorable plea deal if that’s in your best interest.

Possible defense strategies may include:

– Challenging the legality of a search or arrest
– Disputing witness credibility or reliability
– Suppressing improperly obtained evidence
– Providing alternative explanations or alibis
– Demonstrating lack of intent or mistaken identity
– Showing violations of your constitutional rights

Our attorneys know the tactics used by law enforcement and prosecutors, and we won’t hesitate to challenge their case at every opportunity. Whether your case ends in a negotiated plea or goes all the way to trial, we’ll stand by your side and fight to protect your freedom.

You Are Presumed Innocent

Being charged with a crime does not make you guilty. Under both Idaho and federal law, you are presumed innocent until proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt. Unfortunately, the court of public opinion—and sometimes the system itself—can make you feel otherwise. At Shep Law Group, we never lose sight of your rights, your dignity, and your humanity.

We believe in second chances and in holding the government accountable to the highest legal standards. You deserve to have your story heard and to have a legal team that will advocate for you without hesitation or judgment.
