Law Office of Caroline M. Elliot | Criminal Defense in Honolulu, HI (h1)
The Law Office of Caroline M. Elliot is a criminal defense practice based in Honolulu, Hawaii, with a mailing address at P.O. Box 3254, Honolulu, HI 96801, and can be reached at (808) 570-5545. Elliot was licensed to practice in Hawaii in December 2021 after more than twelve years working as an assistant public defender in Wake County, North Carolina, and she now represents clients in both Hawaii state and federal courts.
The firm’s practice covers state and federal criminal defense, including drug crimes, DUI and OVUII, gun and firearm charges, and white-collar allegations, along with post-conviction relief such as expungements, parole hearings, and sentence modifications. Elliot’s background handling complex felony cases and high-stakes murder trials as a public defender informs her approach, which emphasizes tailored defense strategies, close review of the evidence, and identifying constitutional violations that can be raised at trial or on appeal.
Elliot’s history includes leading the Innocence Project and Death Penalty Project during law school and working with the Center for Death Penalty Litigation, a background that has earned her, according to the firm, respect from judges, prosecutors, and peers in the Hawaii legal community. That combination of public defender trial experience and post-conviction advocacy work underpins the firm’s reputation for handling serious criminal matters with a defense-oriented, client-focused approach.
