Areas of Practice
DUI Defense
Facing a DUI charge can be overwhelming, but I am here to protect your rights and fight for the best possible outcome. With 22+ years of experience in DUI defense, I challenge evidence, negotiate on your behalf, and work to minimize penalties or get charges dismissed.
DMV Hearing Defense
Protecting your driving privileges is crucial. I will challenge license suspensions, including working with expert toxicologists to dispute evidence, improper law enforcement procedures, lack of evidence or timing discrepancies. Throughout the process, I fight to safeguard your rights and keep you on the road.
Domestic Violence
Accusations of domestic violence can have serious legal and personal consequences. I provide a strong, strategic defense to ensure your side of the story is heardโchallenging false allegations, impeaching witness credibility when applicable, and pursuing the best possible resolution, whether through dismissal or trial, I'll fight to protect your rights and future.
Expungement & Sealing Arrest Records
I can petition the court to dismiss felony or misdemeanor charges, helping you clear your record through expungement and restore opportunities for employment, housing, and more. If you were arrested, but never charged, I can also request the court to seal your arrest record, keeping it from most public access. Let me navigate the process for you and advocate for a fresh start.
Gun Charges
I offer assertive legal representation to safeguard your 2nd Amendment Constitutional rights to bear arms and 4th Amendment rights against unconstitutional search and seizure of your person, residence or car. I meticulously examine every aspect to challenge the search and evidence. As with all offenses, I pursue case dismissals, or if not possible, negotiate the most favorable reduction in charges.
Criminal Defense
If youโre facing criminal charges, having an experienced defense attorney is crucial. I provide strategic legal representation across a wide range of cases, ensuring your rights are protected and that you receive fair treatment. Whether challenging the evidence, fighting for dismissal or negotiating for reduced charges, I am committed to delivering the strongest possible defense for your case.
Priorities
I meticulously analyze every aspect of your case to challenge the evidence, identify weaknesses in the prosecution's case, and aggressively pursue the best possible outcome.
๏ปฟ
My priority is to:
I.
Seek Case Dismissal
by challenging procedural errors, insufficient evidence, and violations of your rights.
II.
Reduce Charges
through strategic negotiation and compelling legal arguments.
III.
Take Your Case to Trial
by rigorously challenging the prosecution's case and fighting for a Not Guilty verdict.
IV.
Post-Case Advocacy
I can petition the court to have your prior convictions dismissed and also petition the court to seal your prior arrests, in most cases.

I highly recommend Amber Bellante. She was professional, responsive, and efficient throughout the entire process. She handled my case quickly and achieved the best possible outcome. Communication was clear, and I always felt informed and confident in her representation. If youโre looking for an attorney who is knowledgeable and delivers results, she is an excellent choice.

I couldnโt recommend Amber Bellante enough. She was efficient, direct, and approachable, which made the entire DUI process feel seamless and far less stressful than I ever expected. Amber was kind, guided me through every stage with clarity and care, stayed on top of every detail, and ultimately helped lower my consequences immensely. Truly grateful for her expertise and professionalism.

I had a very great experience retaining Amber to help me on a very quick, but annoying legal matter. From the first contact, she was right on top of things. She always was available by text and phone, and made me feel like my time was valuable to her as well. She was very easy to talk to, she listened to all details, and handled my matter with ease. The thing I liked most about having Amber help me was she was very down to earth. A lot of attorneys can make you feel like you are wasting their time when it doesnโt involve something major or a big payday. Not Amber. It was more like I was talking to a friend on the phone with her communication style and the comfortability I had in talking with her. I would recommend Amber to anyone friends or family. She deserves all the positive feedback she receives and works hard for her clients in this city. 10/10

Amber was amazing! Anytime I had questions she was able to answer all the questions i had confidently and clearly. She was very informative throughout the whole process which helped me feel more secure with everything. In the end iโm very happy with my results and I would recommend her 100% !!

Amber did a great job going to court and getting some things cleared off my record. She communicated with me at every stage and did exactly what she said she was going to do. She charged me market rate with a small discount because I had multiple issues. Great work. Highly recommended.

I was really impressed with Amber Bellante's legal serves. She is dedicated to my cases, hard working and never gives up! She knows what it mean to be a great attorney; she most certainly is one of the best. Amber successfully got my resisting arrest case dismissed and resolved without a violation of probation, no additional time or penalties. I highly recommend Amber Bellante to anyone who needs a criminal deference attorney. I have trusted Amber Bellante to handle my cases for the past decade and she will continue to be my attorney from the next decade, 2020's. -Kirk Kuykendall

Highly recommended for DUI's cases. She was able to erase them from my record with only one phone call. She is very personable and efficient! I highly recommend amber bellante for all of your legal needs
