With a degree in law enforcement, experience working in the Connecticut Public Defender's office, and success in many criminal cases, Tina Sypek D'Amato has the skills and knowledge needed to defend clients against a wide variety of state and federal criminal charges. Whatever federal criminal charges you may be facing - federal gun charges, larceny and robbery charges, or federal drug conspiracy charges - you need a fierce advocate on your side. If you have been arrested for rape, risk of injury to minors, assault or domestic assault, or for drug manufacture or sale, our law firm can protect your rights.

Whether you are charged with a felony or a misdemeanor, the stakes are too high not to pull out all the stops in fighting the charges against you. A criminal conviction may result in jail time, dramatic fines, and even difficulty with employment for the rest of your life. A conviction on a sex crime can result in mandatory lifetime sex offender registration. Even relatively minor charges such as criminal mischief, breach of peace, and drug possession can result in serious consequences and can stem from an unlawful traffic stop.

Criminal charges are frightening to most people, and rightfully so. However, worse than not understanding what is happening to you is not knowing what to expect.

When armed with all of the details of your case, criminal defense attorney Tina Sypek D'Amato can usually tell you what to expect every step of the way. Tina explains in detail what can be done and what needs to be done to achieve favorable outcomes such as a "not guilty" verdict, case dismissal, or a sentence to a diversionary program such as a drug education program, accelerated rehabilitation, a supervised diversionary program, an alcohol education program or a family violence program .

As someone who has known the challenges of addiction and substance abuse, Tina empathizes with clients who have gotten in trouble with the law primarily because of a drug or alcohol problem. This knowledge and empathy give her deep respect for each individual for whom she acts as an advocate in the criminal defense system.

The criminal justice system can be a maze for those who are unfamiliar with it. Allow Tina to guide you on the best path forward. Your criminal arrest doesn't need to be your life's last chapter. When Tina advocates for you, she will defend your Constitutional rights every step of the way, and aggressively pursue the most beneficial outcome.
