When Should I Hire A Criminal Defense Attorney?
At the very least, you should contact a lawyer as soon as you think you might be in legal trouble. This means calling a lawyer before talking to the police. This means calling a lawyer before the first court hearing. This means calling a lawyer before a charge has been formally filed. In many instances, individuals are arrested but given a notice of a court date for a later time. Don’t wait until after the case is charged to contact an attorney. What is better than a win a trial? The sweetest victories are those that come before a charge is even issued. This saves the client public embarrassment, the anxiety of what will happen while the case is pending or how it will end. Often times, criminal cases can take months to resolve. Living under the stress of uncertainty can be devastating for clients. Some potential clients have indicated they preferred to wait until the District Attorney’s Office decided whether or not to file a charge against them before hiring a lawyer. At our firm, we believe this is a mistake. Early intervention may lead to no charges being filed against you or reduced charges being filed against you
