Opposing party received 47% less alimony, 10% less equity from marital residence, 10% less from retirement account, and 100% less from inheritance after trial than last demand. The moment a legal problem enters your life, it may seem as if your world is spinning out of control. You can never get far from the obstacles that come with the worry.
When the problem involves possible loss of your freedom due to a criminal charge, a divorce affecting your family life or a serious injury resulting in medical costs and lost earnings, the frustration and fear can be overwhelming. I am attorney Albert Hansen, with offices in Portsmouth, New Hampshire, and Kennebunk, Maine, and serving surrounding communities.

Services
You probably hoped you would never need to hire a lawyer. But now that you are facing a serious legal problem, choosing the right attorney will be the most important decision you make during the entire process. While every practicing attorney in New Hampshire, Maine and Massachusetts will be licensed, there are many other factors to take into consideration.
I handle a variety of criminal law offenses from misdemeanors to felonies, including traffic and motor vehicle offenses, DWIs/OUIs, alcohol and drug crimes, theft, sex offenses and assaults, domestic violence, restraining orders and administrative proceedings. In order to be successful in issues of criminal law, you need more than just knowledge and experience.
Facing domestic violence charges means you are already facing condemnation in the court of public opinion. If convicted, you may face the loss of your family and possibly time behind bars. If the police are called to the scene of a domestic disturbance in Kennebunk or Portsmouth - or most other communities in Maine or New Hampshire - they will generally make an arrest.
Having a misdemeanor or felony drug charge on your record can ruin your reputation for years, possibly affecting opportunities for employment, education, government programs, as well as adverse immigration consequences.
If you have been questioned by police about a connection to illegal narcotics or have already been arrested and charged with a misdemeanor or felony in Kennebunk, Portsmouth or surrounding communities in Maine or New Hampshire, you need serious representation by an experienced lawyer right away.Not only your reputation is at stake, but also prosecutors are under pressure to seek a conviction with the most severe penalties possible.

You may have heard of assault and battery and wondered what the difference is between the two charges. In some places, the law defines assault as the threat of bodily harm, whereas battery is the act of actually harming a person. In many places, however, the law only uses the term assault to cover both situations, and battery is no longer used.

Al Hansen was very quick to respond when I needed help. I am from out of state and he was able to handle everything for me promptly and professionally. He explained everything to me as he did it and answered all my questions. His prices were more than fair and I would recommend giving him a call if you are in need for a honest lawyer to handle your situation.

I never thought I would find myself in trouble with the law but when I did I was scared and did not know where to turn for help. A relative who was very happy with the results of a legal issue that Attorney Hansen handled for him recommended that I talk to Attorney Hansen as soon as possible to help lessen some of my worries. I called Attorney Hansen's office and was able to meet with him that same week. Attorney Hansen explained everything in detail and guided me through every step of this legal nightmare that I found myself in. Attorney Hansen went through all the police reports, evidence, and

Attorney Hansen is very compassionate and takes the time to really speak with you. He asks questions and listens to every word. He goes to the mat for you and throughout the need for his services, checks on you, not only for your legal matters but on your well being also. He responds quickly to emails/phone calls which is rare! I highly recommend Attorney Hansen.

Al got the job done efficiently and in a timely manner and always answered or returned emails either that day or the next morning. I never felt that I could not get ahold of my lawyer. He explained every step process in the case and helped me get a favorable outcome.

Mr. Hansen has represented me in regards to a family law matter, and I wanted to express how pleased I was with time, and dedication he puts into his work. Mr. Hansen followed up with my requests, and made sure everything was done with care and compassion during this difficult time. I would recommend Mr. Hansen to anyone who inquires.
