Delaware Criminal Lawyer

Fifteen years. No other criminal defense attorney in the Dover, Delaware, metropolitan region can say that they have as much experience as a former prosecutor in the district attorney’s office. Today, I add that experience to five years of criminal defense representation as a solo practitioner to help my clients get the best possible outcome for their charges.

I am criminal defense attorney John Garey. I left the Kent County Office of the District Attorney and opened the Law Office of John R. Garey in 2003 after more than 15 years as a prosecutor. Now, my only focus is using my experience and unique perspective on criminal law to protect the futures of people charged with DWI, drug charges, assault and all other criminal offenses.
