PRACTICE AREAS
Whitehouse Law Group’s criminal practice is grounded in the fact that our criminal justice system is inherently unjust. Though its most foundational premise is “innocent until proven guilty”; around 75% of the people in jail in this country have not been convicted of any crime. We fight daily to have our clients released from custody prior to trial. Mrs. White is a zealous advocate and firmly believes in the State’s burden to prove their allegations beyond, and to the exclusion of every reasonable doubt. We are committed to protecting your constitutional rights and humanity. Click the button above for more information.
An unfortunate truth is that our Constitutional Rights in theory are not always honored in practice. This is especially true in the criminal justice system. Whether intentional or through other failures, your Constitutional Rights deserve protection.

SHE WILL NOT BACK DOWN…
When your freedom and livelihood are at stake, you need an experienced attorney to fight against the resources of the government. Erian White is a passionate, aggressive trial attorney who is not only skilled, but unafraid to stand against the weight of the government for your rights and freedom.
Facing criminal charges is without a doubt a terrifying experience. Though the wheels of Justice turn slow, you will easily find yourself in a system that snatches freedom quickly, often times unfairly, despite our country’s most core constitutional concept of “innocent until proven guilty”.
Effective representation requires consideration of so many unexpected aspects of life such as citizenship, public assistance, driver’s licenses, child custody and more. Additionally, prior criminal history can significantly impact potential sentences for even non-violent felonies and misdemeanor cases. Your case should be handled by the best, and no case is too small.
It is Erian’s life mission to ensure that your rights are always secure, and that the government meets its burden in each and every case she handles. If you have been arrested, believe you are under investigation for a crime, or otherwise believe your rights have been violated, contact Whitehouse Law Group today.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
-
If you ever have to ask yourself this question, the answer is YES. Even witnesses to crimes may need to consult with an attorney before speaking to police. If you are ever questioned by the police, even at the scene of a crime or traffic stop, always invoke your right to have an attorney present. There is NO information that you can give the police that cannot wait until you speak with an attorney.
-
Absolutely not. Even prior to the filing decision, there are many steps an attorney can take to begin working on your case. In particular, evidence such as videos and other physical evidence may not be preserved if you wait to hire an attorney.
-
There is no way to actually predict how long a case will stay open. The length of a case depends on a few different factors, including but not limited to: the amount of discovery/investigation, the penalties, the amount of open cases, the schedule of the court/attorneys, the availability/cooperation of witnesses, and more.
-
If you are convicted of a crime, there are a range of direct and collateral consequences. Some of the most common are the loss of the right to vote, ability to own/carry a firearm, drivers license suspension/revocation, fines, and the loss of public benefits. Some specific crimes have specific consequences such as sex related crimes, DUIs and crimes against children.
-
Dismissal is ultimately up to the State in most cases. Sometimes, there may be facts or circumstances to support a Motion to Dismiss, but they are case specific. Even in those cases, the decision is up to the Judge. Your best option as a Defendant is to prepare as thoroughly as possible to put your case in the best position to be resolved favorably.
-
Not likely. Miranda does not apply in every arrest, even if you did make statements to the police. When Miranda does apply, it is unlikely that a Motion to Suppress Statements will result in a dismissal of the charges.
-
Through your attorney, yes. Never talk to a prosecutor without an attorney. Ultimately no one is entitled to a plea, so any offer or acceptance of a counter offer is at the discretion of the prosecution.
-
Probation is not always the best option to resolve a case, and may not even be an option in some cases. While on probation, you will be required to keep consistent contact with your officer, your freedom of movement will be limited, you may be required to take drug tests, be employed, pay restitution and or complete community service. Most importantly, violations of probation mean that you will now face the same consequences from your original arrest, except, the standard to prove the allegations in a violation are significantly less than in a regular criminal case.
