If you or your son or daughter has been arrested and charged with a felony or misdemeanor crime, with drunk driving, or even with a traffic violation, we have one immediate and important piece of advice for you: Don’t make a statement without an attorney present.

• Don’t chat with the police to be polite.
• Don’t make any admissions to family or friends.
• Don’t make a statement or sign anything.
• Don’t even leave a detailed message on the machine of a lawyer.

DO contact the Tyler Law Office at (573) 358-4245. If you don’t immediately reach defense attorney Kimberly Tyler, leave a message telling us how to reach you and what you were arrested for. Attorney Tyler makes jail visits and can help you get bond or negotiate a bond reduction.

At the Tyler Law Office of Bonne Terre, Missouri, our job is to protect your rights in the criminal justice system. We defend people facing misdemeanor and felony criminal charges in St. Francois County, Washington County, Crawford County, Jefferson County, St. Louis County, Madison County, Sainte Genevieve County, and Iron County.

Criminal defense lawyer Kimberly Tyler began her law career as a public defender in 1988, working her way up to tackling the most serious cases. She also served as associate circuit court judge for Washington County before going into private practice.

The first steps you take after an arrest can have a big impact on your case.

One of the most common mistakes people make after being arrested on a misdemeanor crime, for domestic assault, for drunk driving, or for a traffic violation is to assume that they have no defense and to plead guilty. Just because you’ve been charged with a crime, that does not mean the prosecutor has the evidence to prove it, or that you’re guilty of the crime with which you have been charged.

Even for a first offense, quality representation could prevent you from getting a criminal record, save you from adding points to your driving record, or prevent your insurance from going up. We offer an initial consultation for only $25 so you CAN afford to talk to an attorney.

DWI / DUI Defense

A drunk-driving charge will have an immediate affect on your driver’s license. Even if you’re not convicted, you could lose your license for 90 days if you don’t ask for an appeal of your license revocation.

You have 10 days to file an appeal. Contact our office immediately for legal representation at your administrative hearing before the Missouri Department of Revenue–Traffic Division, and your criminal case.
