Additionally, I handle matters that often arise during an arrest or after a case is resolved, including money and asset forfeiture, expungements and probation and parole violations.

The people accused of a crime in this country face difficult times and the process is a strain on the individual and his or her family. Fortunately, we have laws in place to protect you and give you an opportunity to defend yourself against the purported allegations. If you find yourself accused of a crime, you need a lawyer who cares about the outcome of your case and can fight for your future.
When you're facing the resources of the prosecutor's office, you need a lawyer who will provide you with quality criminal defense. You need someone to help you level the playing field and give you a fighting chance. I started my Lafayette, Louisiana, law firm to make sure you could have quality criminal defense representation.
Many assault and battery charges involve people with differing opinions and often occur while under the influence of drugs and/or alcohol. An argument starts over something insignificant, one thing leads to another, and a fight ensues. It could happen to anyone. Although this story is common, it often leads to serious criminal charges.
If you or someone you care about has been arrested for or charged with credit card fraud, you can take an immediate step in the right direction by talking to a skilled defense attorney. The penalties upon conviction for credit card fraud can be severe and place limitations on your rights, freedom and future.
If you are facing drug charges in Lafayette Parish, St. Martin Parish, Acadia Parish or other surrounding Parishes along the Interstate 10 corridor, you have the right to dedicated defense counsel. Since becoming a criminal defense attorney in 2003, I have been focused on fighting to protect my clients' rights.

Donald Cleavland is very professional, dedicated, hardworking, caring, supportive, and just an all around admirable guy. I could not have chosen a better attorney to defend me in court. Donald was successful in having both of my felony cases dismissed and he made it look easy. His first words to me were “this is not only about your freedom, but more importantly your future”. He made sure that I was able to be here for my family and raise my son. His staff is very friendly and respectful, and very involved, also keeping clients updated with the case and all scheduled court matters. I put all
