At Harper, Evans, Hilbrenner & Netemeyer, our criminal defense lawyers defend people accused of kidnapping. If you have been charged with this crime, you likely know how severe the repercussions could be. Our job is to prevent you from having to face those repercussions. With more than 100 years of combined experience, we are good at our job.
Frequently, kidnapping charges arise out of child custody disputes. In the midst of the dispute, one parent may run off with the child or simply keep the child away from the other parent. The people charged with this crime are often surprised at the severity of the charges they face. They do not recognize what they have done as kidnapping, since it involved their own child. Unfortunately, this is a very serious matter and requires the attention of knowledgeable Missouri kidnapping attorneys.
In addition to providing skilled criminal defense, our law firm also features family law attorneys who prove to be quite helpful when these types of kidnapping and child custody scenarios arise.
Felonious restraint is a crime similar to kidnapping. Like most kidnapping charges, it also typically arises out of domestic disputes. Often in relation to a divorce, a couple may get into heated arguments. One party may want to leave. The other party may block the door or otherwise prevent the other from leaving. That party may then be accused of felonious restraint and, depending on the situation, potentially also domestic violence. These are complex and emotional situations. We are here to help you through this.

Our lawyers are aggressive and thorough. We know that we cannot rely on the police investigation, because police miss things. We need to conduct our own investigation. That means visiting the scene of the alleged crime and re-interviewing witnesses to sift through half-truths that may have been told to the police. We will bring in private investigators and legal experts to ensure that we have every fact at our disposal. Once we have gathered all the facts, we use them to build a strong criminal defense case to protect you.
A paralegal will collect some basic information, including your availability, and call you back to schedule a meeting after checking our attorney’s schedules. Call 573-442-1660 today.
Complete the form to the right with your contact information and some details about your case. We promise you’ll hear back from us, usually by the next day.
Our law firm’s location in downtown Columbia gives our attorneys convenient access to the Boone County Courthouse and City of Columbia Municipal Court.
