If you or a loved one has ever been arrested or under investigation, you know the importance of having a criminal defense attorney by your side. Also, you know how important it is to have one with you every step of the way.
When it comes to criminal law, any interactions you, the client, has with government officials or police officers can be used against you. Once your Miranda Rights are read to you, any information you say can be used against you in court. And for most, the knowledge of what information can and cannot hurt your case is unclear.
How Soon Should I Seek Representation?
As mentioned above, timing is of the essence when it comes to criminal matters. The sooner you seek assistance from a criminal defense lawyer, the better. With defendants facing criminal charges, jail or even prison time is almost inevitable without the right representation.
To help aid you in your fight against the charges you are facing, our experienced team can give you the legal advice and expertise you need. Having a strong defense lawyer in your corner is not only important in this instance—it’s necessary.
Don’t Leave Matters to Someone You Don’t Know
Foregoing the opportunity to obtain your own criminal defense lawyer means putting your trust in someone the state will assign to represent you. With this course of action, you have no say in who defends you.
On the other hand, choosing your own attorney will ensure a level of comfort and protection during your case. And if your case goes to litigation, the journey between client and attorney could be a lengthy one. We recommend working with someone you trust.
