WELCOME TO THE INTERNET HOME OF GYLLENBORG & DUNN, a top-rated criminal defense law firm located in Olathe, Kansas. We represent individuals and corporations in criminal matters in the federal, state and municipal courts. This website provides information about our legal experience, knowledge and abilities in order to help potential clients and referring attorneys decide whether to seek our professional services. We hope you find it useful for that purpose.
No other area of the law allows the government to intrude more deeply into the life of an individual than does criminal prosecution. The search of your body, your home, or your vehicle by the government, with or without a warrant, is just one feature of criminal prosecution that makes it uniquely personal. Another is the potential loss of significant individual freedoms, including the right to personal liberty, the right to travel, the right to privacy, the right to associate, the right to free speech, and the privilege to operate a motor vehicle, watercraft, or aircraft. Equally distressing, once a prosecution begins the public often considers the accused to be guilty of the crimes charged, before any evidence has been presented in court.
For these and other reasons, we make sure that our client's criminal defense is handled confidentially, ethically, and zealously. We also scrupulously honor our client's wishes regarding the resolution of the case. At Gyllenborg & Dunn, we discuss potential legal issues and possible outcomes of the case with our client, and together we make well-informed decisions about how the defense should proceed. The client who desires a trial to a jury or a judge will get a seasoned and experienced criminal defense trial lawyer. The client who wishes to have the case resolved quickly and discreetly without trial will get a skilled negotiator and a zealous advocate. All clients are treated with respect, loyalty, and professionalism.
We hope this website attracts new clients to our law firm, and we extend our thanks to the many people who have recommended us to their clients and friends over the years. We appreciate the expression of confidence and trust that a personal recommendation represents. While we practice only in the field of criminal defense, we receive many requests for legal advice in other areas of law. As graciously as we receive referrals, we offer referrals of excellent lawyers in areas of the law as diverse as adoptions, banking, child custody, customs, divorce, employment discrimination, estate planning, immigration and deportation, personal injury, real estate, tax planning, and workers compensation.
