Main Services

As a full-service criminal defense attorney, I offer comprehensive legal representation and defense for virtually all criminal charges. I handle both felonies and misdemeanors in both Tahoe City (Placer County), and Truckee (Nevada County). I take on cases including:

  •  DUI
  •  Drunk in Public
  •  Drug Possession
  •  Drug Sales
  •  Domestic Violence
  •  Theft
  •  Assault and Battery
  •  Gun Charges.

Additionally, I provide my clients with a level of support not available from many other criminal lawyers. A DUI charge, for example, mandates a complicated series of steps by the defendant, the failure of any one of which to execute possibly resulting in higher fines, increased jail time and longer suspension of driving privileges. Unlike many defenders, I take the time to spell out to my clients exactly what they need to do and by when to ensure the best possible outcome, both when contesting charges and when pleading out.

DUI Defense Lawyer

Martin Gibson has a proven track record as a DUI defense lawyer and has been successfully defending and assisting individuals charged with driving under the influence of alcohol and/or drugs in the Truckee Lake Tahoe area since 1999. When you hire Alison, she will do everything in her power to minimize your financial, time, effort, and emotional penalties and make the process as easy as possible for you. It’s nice to work with a lawyer that knows the process, has extensive experience, and really cares about you.

Criminal Defense

I have successfully defended against almost every kind of crime that can be charged in California, including allegations as serious as manslaughter, rape, and felony assault, to possession, transportation and possession for sale of every kind of drug, as well as driving under the influence, domestic violence, and violations of the business and professions code for unlawful licensing activities.

Marijuana Defense

Since 1999 I have successfully defended those charged with such crimes as Cultivation, Transportation and Possession with intent to sell marijuana. I have assisted people in perfecting and raising a valid medical marijuana defense (under the provisions of Health and Safety Code section 11362.5 et. seq.) in cases where charges have already been filed, and I have advised hundreds of individuals in how to avoid detection and prosecution for conducting medical marijuana businesses.

Misdemeanors and Felonies

Misdemeanor crimes are punishable by a maximum term of incarceration in the county jail of one year or less. Felony crimes are punishable by a state prison term or death. State prison terms can be determinate (such as four years) or indeterminate (such as 25 years to life) depending on the severity of the charges and a defendant’s criminal record.
