Our Practice

Deandra Grant Law limits its practice to DWI, criminal and federal defense. That focus is deliberate. Attorneys who handle every type of case cannot develop the depth of forensic science knowledge, courtroom experience, and legal specialization that DWI and serious criminal defense demands. Every attorney at Deandra Grant Law is here because they chose this work and not because it was assigned to them.

Every case at Deandra Grant Law begins with the same question: what does the State’s evidence actually show, and how was it obtained? For DWI cases, that means an independent review of the breath or blood test results, the SFST administration, the stop, and the arrest. For drug cases, it means an independent review of the laboratory methodology, the weight determination, and the chain of custody. For violent crime cases, it means a rigorous examination of the evidence, the complaining witness’s credibility, and the lawfulness of the search and seizure.
