All PracticesCriminal Law
If you have been charged with a crime, you need to hire an experienced criminal defense lawyer immediately.
There’s a lot at stake—a criminal conviction can cost you more than your freedom. You can face fines, jeopardize a professional license or make it difficult to find the right place to live or get financial aid for college. You want an attorney who’s been in the trenches, who knows how to prepare and present a successful defense to a jury.
At Black & Davison, P.C., we have aggressively protected the rights of individuals in Pennsylvania for more than half a century. Before joining our practice, partner Jerrold A. Sulcove was a successful prosecutor in Cumberland County, Pennsylvania. He has a comprehensive understanding of how the state prepares and prosecutes criminal cases.
Criminal Defense Practice
We handle all types of criminal cases in Pennsylvania, from traffic offenses and misdemeanors to felony charges.
When you hire us to defend you on any criminal charge, we conduct a thorough investigation of what happened, looking carefully at police reports and questioning all relevant witnesses to craft the most effective defense. We’ll look at how police gathered evidence against you, confirming that there was probable cause for any search, seizure or arrest. If irregularities are found, we’ll seek to exclude evidence improperly obtained or dismiss charges, if appropriate.
We defend people charged with all types of crimes, including:
-
Homicide — murder, manslaughter and involuntary manslaughter
-
Theft crimes — grand and petty larceny, shoplifting, misappropriation of goods, embezzlement
-
Drug offenses—possession, trafficking, cultivation and conspiracy

Sex crimes—sexual assault, rape, molestation, public lewdness, and prostitution and soliciting
