How Can a Criminal Defense Lawyer Help Me and My Case?

The criminal procedure process can be complex and can deal with many specialized issues of law. Having an experienced attorney can help through that process. From bond hearings, to probable cause and indictments, to preparation of the actual trial, the criminal process is a lengthy and nuanced area of practice.

Having an attorney with experience in this field is crucial to successfully defending your case while maintaining the stresses that come with being charged with a crime. Not only do you have to deal with the upheaval in your own life, defending yourself in court adds all of the legal pressures of the case onto your shoulders as well. Your criminal defense attorney will build your case with interviews, research, and other methods of collecting information that exposes the strengths and weaknesses of your matter.

The evidence against you needs to be scrutinized by an experienced professional that can leverage additional resources to determine any legal theories to be explored on your behalf. The potential of your being acquitted of the crime or getting the right plea for your case increases dramatically with a criminal defense attorney skilled in negotiating your case with opposing counsel.

If your case does go to trial, we will participate in your defense by helping with jury selection, presenting arguments, examining witnesses, and persuading the jury that the prosecution’s case against you does not meet the required burden of proof.
