Representing the Accused in Central Ohio Since 2000
United States District Court Southern District Ohio

The United States District Court of the Southern District of Ohio

The Southern District of Ohio is one of two federal district courts in Ohio handling both criminal and civil cases where the defendants are charged with a federal criminal offense and the amount in controversy exceeds $75,000, or if there is a federal question involved. Unlike a state court, all of the judges in this federal court are selected by the president and confirmed by the United States Senate and serve for life.

In the Southern District, it is especially critical to have an experienced attorney with a deep knowledge and understanding of the law. Funkhouser Law is a great choice. Call Funkhouser Law for a free consultation and accurate assessment of your case.
