Experienced Criminal Defense Lawyer

My name is Francis E. Farren, and I have worked in the criminal justice system for more than 20 years. Before becoming a criminal defense attorney, I was a deputy attorney general for the Delaware Department of Justice. For eight years, I prosecuted hundreds of people for a wide-range of criminal offenses, such as: traffic offenses, burglary, robbery, domestic assault and capital murder.

I started the Law Offices of Francis E. Farren in 2006 with a unique perspective - I have a thorough understanding of how the other side works. As your criminal defense attorney, I have the experience and knowledge to develop a compelling legal argument. My job is to dig into the case against you while working aggressively to preserve your rights and freedom.

What Can I Do For You?

The penalties for an assault conviction can include jail time, fines, probation, house arrest and community service, depending on whether or not you are sentenced for a misdemeanor or armed assault. I have an extensive background working with investigators to develop persuasive legal arguments that has resulted in countless not-guilty verdicts. For example, I carefully review the evidence to develop an aggravated assault defense based on a variety of factors, such as:

  • Self defense
  • DNA evidence
  • Lack of whiteness credibility
  • Falsely identified by witnesses

As the worst case scenario - if you are convicted - I will aggressively negotiate to help you get a reduced sentence.
