Law Firm Victories
From high-stakes felonies to the quiet cases no one but the accused ever notices, Jim Shaw NWA Criminal Defense Team keeps stacking victories the same way we practice: meticulous investigation, relentless pressure, and a refusal to let bad assumptions become bad convictions. In the last stretch alone we’ve secured multiple Not Guilty verdicts, exposed over-charged cases, unraveled manufactured accusations, and forced dismissals where the evidence couldn’t carry the State’s story. Whether it’s dismantling a decades-old allegation, beating back overzealous searches, or showing a jury the truth before their pizza arrives, we do the same thing every time—make them prove it. And when they can’t, our people walk out whole.
