Defending Rights. Delivering Results.
Legal problems are personal. Your representation should be too.
When you’re facing a criminal charge or recovering from a serious injury, the legal questions are only part of what’s on your mind. You may be afraid that an arrest will take you away from your family or put your job at risk. If you’ve been injured, getting through the day may already be difficult, especially when you’re missing work and medical bills are piling up.
It’s a lot to carry while trying to decide who to trust with your case. You should be able to tell a lawyer what happened in your own words, ask the questions that are worrying you, and get an explanation you can understand. That first conversation should make clear where you stand, what needs attention now, and what to do next.
At Boyadzhyan Legal Shield, you work directly with founding attorney Knarik Boyadzhyan from your first consultation through the resolution of your case.
Criminal Defense & Personal Injury
Boyadzhyan Legal Shield defends people facing criminal charges and helps injured people pursue compensation from those responsible.
Criminal Defense Protecting Your Rights, Your Freedom, and Your Future
At trial, the prosecution has to prove its case beyond a reasonable doubt. We examine the evidence and how it was obtained, looking for weaknesses in the prosecution’s case and violations of your rights.
The firm represents individuals facing DUI charges, domestic violence allegations, assault and battery charges, and other criminal matters.
You don’t have to wait until charges are filed to speak with an attorney. We also advise people under investigation on how to respond when law enforcement asks for an interview or a statement.
Personal Injury When someone else’s conduct causes serious harm, accountability matters.
An injury claim needs to account for how the injury has changed your life: the treatment you need, the work you’ve missed, and the pain or limitations you’re living with. We work to document those losses and build the evidence needed to support your claim.
Boyadzhyan Legal Shield represents people injured in vehicle accidents, on unsafe property, and in other circumstances where someone else may be legally responsible. The firm also handles wrongful death claims.
Honest communication and tenacious representation guide every case.
Direct Work With Knarik
Knarik takes the time to learn what happened and how it is affecting your life. You discuss your questions and concerns directly with her as your case progresses.

We begin by examining the facts and evidence, including the points the other side is likely to dispute. We prepare to argue your case in court and use that preparation to guide negotiations and the advice we give you.
Straight Answers
Knarik explains where your case is strong and where it is vulnerable. Before you decide whether to accept a plea offer or settlement, she talks through its terms and the risks of taking the case to trial.
