CRIMINAL LAW

Bohdan Zelechiwsky is an experienced attorney with over 30 years of experience in private practice and 18 years of those years as a member of the Northampton County Public Defenders Office. I have defended individuals shared with DUI/DWI cases, drug offenses, theft and receiving stolen property, sexual assault, burglary, assault, and embezzlement. I have defended individuals who were charged with murder and were facing the death penalty.

What sets me apart from many other criminal defense attorneys is my experience and willingness to take a case to trial. I have handled federal cases and other serious charges such as robbery, arson and mandatory minimum drug cases in Lehigh County, Northampton County, Carbon County, and throughout Pennsylvania.

My primary concern is for the welfare of my client. My client is not just another file number. I am always accessible to my client and take the time to fully explain all the options that are available to them. I am also able to negotiate with the prosecutor the most favorable plea for my client when the prosecutor knows that I am not afraid and prepared to go to trial, if necessary.
