Melissa W. Sullivan
Personal Injury and Criminal Defense Attorney
Melissa W. Sullivan joined the firm in 2015 after over a decade in criminal prosecution. Her experience in a wide range of driving cases, including serious violent felony driving cases, challenges to search warrants, gives her a keen advantage. As a personal injury lawyer, she can can uniquely empathize with clients who have been injured: while 20 weeks pregnant with her second child, she was struck as a pedestrian while in a crosswalk. The baby was fine, and has been born happy and healthy, but it took months for her to recover from the nerve pain caused by being hit by a vehicle.
Melissa now focuses her representation on personal injury negligence claims and criminal defense matters. Melissa particularly enjoys helping those who have suffered serious injuries from car, bicycle, and crosswalk injuries. She is also exceptional in her representation of those charged with all manner of criminal offenses. Melissa strives to fully understand a client’s case and story. She works tirelessly with prosecutors to negotiate the best possible results for clients. When negotiations fail, or trial is otherwise necessary, Melissa is known for being a highly skilled advocate who strikes to the heart of issues for her clients. Melissa is exceptionally well qualified in all aspects of criminal defense, but is particularly sought out in driving offenses and assault charges.
