Attention - Advocacy - Results
Whether you are formally accused of a crime or under investigation by law enforcement, navigating the legal landscape is a stressful and intimidating task. A criminal conviction, or even simply an accusation, can jeopardize a person’s employment, education, and reputation. These can also lead to incarceration, debt, and publicity. Davis W. Hewitt is a skilled attorney in Northern California with the knowledge and experience needed to defend the accused and mitigate collateral consequences.
Davis aims to resolve matters quickly, discreetly, and without disrupting his client’s lives. A graduate of U.C. Berkeley and U.C. Hastings College of the Law, he is a competitive attorney who works tirelessly to achieve the best outcomes for his clients. He is based in Chico and serves Butte and adjacent counties.
An Experienced Attorney
Davis has tried as lead counsel over 50 jury trials to verdict. He has represented clients facing life imprisonment for murder, third strikes, and serious sex offenses. Most people who come to him, however, are facing far less serious accusations and have had little or no prior contact with the criminal justice system. Davis believes that good people can find themselves entangled within this system. When that happens, he uses zealous and creative advocacy to free them from its grip. He is attentive to his client’s needs and goals, and is committed to fighting for their freedom and defending their rights.
