Introduction
With 20-plus years of combined experience in criminal law and representation of thousands of people in Southern California criminal courts, Attorney Skip Allen Feild, APC operates a Riverside criminal defense firm built on a team approach that sets it apart from single-attorney practices. The office at 6809 Indiana Avenue Suite 153, Riverside, CA 92506, reachable at 951-300-8867, holds weekly team meetings to review police reports, evaluate plea offers, and track trends and changes in the courthouse, ensuring that every attorney on the team is aware of the current legal landscape, recent court decisions, and shifting practices at the local district attorney office.
The team approach means that no client case is handled in isolation by a single attorney who may or may not be aware of the latest developments in the court where the case is pending. Cases get the benefit of collective knowledge built from thousands of prior representations and continuous monitoring of courthouse changes.
Practice Areas
DUI and Drunk Driving Defense
DUI cases are among the most common matters the firm handles. California law sets a blood alcohol concentration limit of 0.08 percent, but the firm approach to DUI defense recognizes that a positive test result is not the end of the analysis. The legality of the traffic stop, the administration of field sobriety tests, the calibration and chain of custody of testing equipment, and the specific facts of each case all generate potential defenses that must be evaluated individually.
Domestic Violence and Assault Defense
Domestic violence charges carry consequences that extend beyond the criminal case itself: simultaneous family law proceedings including legal separation, dissolution, or restraining orders frequently accompany these charges. The firm has attorneys who focus specifically on domestic relations matters, providing representation that addresses both the criminal charge and the parallel family law proceedings that domestic violence accusations generate.
Drug Charges
Drug charges ranging from simple possession to distribution fall within the firm practice. The firm evaluates suppression issues, chain of custody problems, and other evidentiary challenges in drug cases, recognizing that the government must satisfy procedural requirements at every stage of the investigation and prosecution.
Felony and Misdemeanor Defense
The firm defends clients charged with all felony and misdemeanor crimes. Beyond DUI, domestic violence, and drug charges, the practice covers embezzlement, attempted murder, murder, white-collar crimes, shoplifting, theft, identity theft, traffic crimes, violations, and infractions, reckless driving, hit and run, driving while suspended or revoked, and other criminal matters.
White Collar Crime Defense
White-collar criminal cases including fraud and embezzlement require a different investigative and legal approach than violent crime defense. The firm handles these matters with attention to the financial documentation, corporate records, and regulatory context that define white-collar prosecutions.
Traffic Crimes and Infractions
Beyond standard criminal matters, the firm represents clients facing traffic crime charges, violations, and infractions. Reckless driving, hit and run, and driving while suspended or revoked are among the traffic-related matters the practice handles.

Client Focus
The weekly team meeting structure is the operational mechanism behind the firm approach. Police reports, plea offers, and courthouse developments are reviewed collectively, meaning that individual attorney knowledge gaps are covered by team awareness. A recent change in how a local judge handles plea negotiations, a new district attorney policy on certain charge categories, or an appellate decision affecting a common defense argument all get shared across the team before they affect any case.
Free phone interviews allow potential clients to discuss their situation before committing to representation. Payment plans with no interest, including deposits and arranged monthly payments, address the financial barrier that legal representation can present for clients who have just been arrested.
