Criminal Defence
When the government builds a case against you, you need someone who already knows how they think.
The Mission: Justice Beyond the Criminal Case
Criminal charges carry real consequences — your freedom, your name, your future. Long before a case reaches court, the State is gathering statements, reviewing evidence, interviewing witnesses, and developing a narrative designed to convict. You cannot afford to meet that power with inexperience.
Miiko Anderson is a Certified Criminal Law Specialist, former Senior Deputy District Attorney, and experienced trial lawyer who trained police officers, judges, forensic teams, and prosecutors on how to evaluate evidence, assess trauma, interpret witness behavior, and build (or dismantle) a case.
She was also trained by the United States Secret Service in complex digital evidence investigation, giving her an unusual investigative advantage in cases involving cell phone forensics, deleted messages, wiretap material, location tracking, video footage, and data extraction. Where many defense attorneys rely entirely on outside experts, Miiko understands how digital evidence is constructed, and more importantly — how it falls apart.
This inside knowledge is not theoretical.
It is practical.
It is tactical.
And it is used for your benefit.

Why Clients Choose Miiko Anderson
Clients choose Miiko because she doesn’t defend passively — she defends forward. She identifies investigative gaps, exposes prosecutorial weaknesses, challenges false assumptions, and ensures judges see the person behind the paperwork. Her prosecution background allows her to anticipate strategy, evaluate risk, and counter arguments before they are made.
Some attorneys wait to see what happens at arraignment.
Miiko prepares to shape what happens next.
This is not surface-level defense.
This is strategy — layered, informed, intentional.
Juvenile Criminal Defense (Subsection of Criminal Defense)
Youth deserve support, direction, and opportunity — not permanent labels.
Teenagers make impulsive decisions. Trauma impacts behavior. Identity is still forming. A single moment should never define a lifetime.
Miiko’s approach to juvenile cases emphasizes rehabilitation, growth, and opportunity. She works to secure outcomes that prioritize treatment over incarceration, counseling over condemnation, and future protection over permanent branding. Her trauma-trained advocacy helps courts understand the context behind behavior — not just the allegation itself.
Juvenile matters include:
• Delinquency court defense
• Probation issues and violation hearings
• Diversion + program placement
• Trauma-based behavior interpretation
• School discipline crossover representation
