Finding the Right Approach to Your Defense in South Louisiana
As an experienced trial lawyer, Bill Faustermann understands that every case is different, every client is different and small distinctions of fact can make a huge difference to the strategic considerations that guide criminal defense decisions. If you need advice about your legal options in terms that make sense for your situation instead of somebody else's, contact the Faustermann Law Firm, L.C., in Slidell.
Our law firm's goal is to help each client overcome the challenges of the immediate criminal charge on terms that not only minimize your exposure to punishment, but that also take due account of your long-range professional, educational or family interests. Because we work closely with each client we serve, you'll have a good idea of the possibilities for your defense, and we'll have a good idea of what's most important for you to protect.

In DWI defense, most people are interested in protecting their right to drive. We represent people charged with drunk driving in the criminal case and in the administrative license revocation proceedings at the Department of Public Safety. We handle all kinds of Louisiana DWI cases, ranging from first offenses, child endangerment and underage drinking violations to repeat charges and felonies related to serious injury accidents.
We also investigate and defend other kinds of criminal cases throughout the region, including St. Tammany Parish, Tangipahoa Parish and Jefferson Parish. By developing valuable leverage in the pretrial stages of the case, we can often achieve dismissal, reduction of the charges, or favorable plea arrangements that can protect your future interest in expungement.
Examples of the cases we handle include:
- Drug crimes involving possession or distribution of marijuana, cocaine, prescription drugs or other controlled substances
- Assault and domestic violence
- Weapons offenses
- Shoplifting, vandalism and property crimes committed by juveniles, young people or adults
As a former prosecuting attorney in juvenile court, Bill Faustermann can protect your child's interests when facing the risk of adult punishment for a serious offense committed while underage. His knowledge of the various treatment, diversion and counseling programs throughout the region can help find the right alternative to keep a case in juvenile court or even out of the criminal justice system.
All clients of the firm benefit from our experience and familiarity with the charging practices and procedures in the different courts of South Louisiana, together with the local availability of such alternative dispositions as drug court, diversion, deferred prosecution or other outcomes that can protect your record.
