Melody Anchietta

Firm: Melody Anchietta, Attorney At Law, Llc
Po Box 3102 , Cheyenne , Wyoming 82003
Practice Areas: Criminal Defense
I worked as a public defender for more than 10 years, first in Kansas City, Missouri, and then in Cheyenne, Wyoming.  During that time, I represented people who were charged with crimes ranging from fishing without a license to first degree murder.  No matter what the charge, I did my best to help my client through the difficult process and obtain a favorable outcome for them.. In order to help my clients achieve their goals, I became skilled at helping my clients find community programs to help with substance abuse and other issues; I learned to successfully negotiate with prosecutors for more lenient sentences, and I learned how to present my client's circumstances to the judge in the best way possible.. And when my client chose to go to trial, I fought hard for them.  I have tried more than 25 cases to a jury, and have obtained many acquittals.. Now, I have opened my own low-volume private practice so that I can dedicate more time and attention to each client.
