Practice Areas: Criminal Defense , Internet , Federal Crime, Federal Crime, Federal Crime

I first became interested in becoming a lawyer after reading books about noted trial lawyers such as Gerry Spence, Race Horse Haynes and Melvin Belli.  I was inspired by their stories to go to law school even though I had already graduated from college and owned a successful business.  I sold my business, was admitted to law school and dedicated myself to learning everything I could about being a courtroom lawyer.. I learned that trying a case well is a skill that can’t be learned just from books.  It takes a  lot of experience in a courtroom to really develop the ability.. I have now been a trial lawyer for over 27 years.  My first jury trial took place in 1987-an acquittal on a DUI case.  Since that time, I have tried many cases in both State and Federal Courts ranging from murder and drug trafficking down to accusations of stealing a pack of gum from Krogers.  Most cases settle without the need for a trial but I believe my clients receive more favorable offers of settlement because Prosecutors know that if an offer is not fair, I will not hesitate to go to trial and that I have the skills and experience to obtain a favorable outcome.

Practice Areas: Education

Cravens works primarily in the areas of employment law, school law and workers’ compensation law. While the three areas overlap, they are just different enough to challenge him. Cravens stays on top of the law in each area, and researches the latest changes of the law and how it affects his clients. “You constantly have to study the law because it is always evolving,” Cravens said. “That is why it is referred to as practicing law.”. Workers’ compensation law changes more frequently than the other types of law Cravens practices. Workers’ compensation proceedings are controlled by statutes and regulations established by the state legislature and are affected by state courts’ interpretation of the statutes and regulations. As a result, the law changes often. “The changes are far more frequent than any other type of law I practice,” Cravens said. “The statutes and regulations are very detailed. There are specific factors and formulas that you have to know how to apply to the facts of each case. A minor adjustment in the statutes and regulations can drastically affect your clients’ interests and can spawn a great deal of case law.”. The law in the employment area changes more with federal legislation and litigation. Cravens has followed employment law as it changed and transformed since he began practicing in 1992. The Americans with Disabilities Act has been particularly interesting to watch, as the definition of who qualifies as an individual with a disability under the Act has changed drastically throughout Cravens’ practice. Employment cases can be brought in state or federal court, venues in which Cravens enjoys working.. “I like the fact that my work involves advising clients in addition to representing clients in litigation,” Cravens said. “We do a lot of counseling with our clients in the employment and school areas to keep them out of litigation. Workers’ compensation is primarily litigation, so I am comfortable in a private meeting giving advice or in a courtroom representing my client.”
