I am the founder and owner of Steve Rice Law, a firm of criminal defense attorneys serving South Central Pennsylvania. Our main office is in Gettysburg. We have branch offices in Chambersburg, Hanover, and Carlisle. We're different than most firms. It's not because we do criminal defense. What makes us special is, we don't do anything else. We do one thing: Defend people accused of crimes -- DUI, murder, and everything in between.
