CRIMINAL DEFENSE ATTORNEY IN OAKLAND, CA
DARRYL A. STALLWORTH
ATTORNEY AT LAW
After playing football at UC Berkeley and graduating with a B.A. in political science, I decided to enter into the legal profession and dedicate my life toward protecting the rights of the criminally accused in my community and abroad
WHAT TO DO IF YOU’VE BEEN CHARGED WITH MURDER
1. REMAIN CALM AND COOPERATE
The most important thing you can do for yourself when you’ve been charged with a serious crime is to stay calm and cooperate with law enforcement. Any actions to the contrary can only hurt your case.
2. DO NOT SPEAK WITHOUT A LAWYER PRESENT
This step can be crucial to the outcome of your case. You are not required to answer any questions about the investigation without a lawyer present. As they say on T.V. — anything you say can and will be held against you in court.
3. CALL ME FOR HELP

THE STALLWORTH DIFFERENCE
If there’s one thing I’ve learned throughout the years, it’s how devastating a criminal conviction can be on a person’s life. Whether you’re facing a DUI, drug possession charge, or something more substantial like murder or sexual assault, a guilty verdict can have lifelong consequences.
That’s why it’s important to have an experienced criminal defense attorney who actually cares about your well-being. For over a decade, I’ve been working with individuals throughout Oakland and Alameda County to provide them with strong representation against whatever criminal charges they may be facing.
So what is the Stallworth difference? It’s providing top-quality criminal defense services that can be individually tailored to the circumstances of your case. It’s about treating every single client with the respect and dignity that they deserve, regardless of the charges they’re facing.
