If you have been charged with a criminal or traffic offense, or are currently under investigation by a law enforcement agency for potential criminal charges, we are here to help you. From an initial consultation, to assisting you during a police interview, first appearances, bond hearings, pre-trial conferences and trial, we will be with you every step of the way to insure your rights are protected. We realize the extreme worry and fear which a criminal charge can cause, not only for you, but for your family as well. We will treat you with dignity and respect as we represent you and your interests throughout the process. We understand that your case is important, and you will always be in charge of all decisions which affect you and your case. The Law Office of Christopher Houston Rumfelt, PLLC works for you, and will always put your interests first. Please note that the NC Rules of Professional Conduct prohibits attorneys from accepting criminal law cases on a results based or contingency fee basis. Therefore we must charge a fee upfront, but we will be happy to work with you on various types of payment plans/options. Any initial consultation fee will be credited to your account should you choose to hire us, and will be waived if we are unable to accept your case.
