Why should I hire a criminal defense attorney?
Due to the complexities of the legal system, the knowledge and experience of a criminal defense attorney is crucial in making sure your rights as an individual are protected. A criminal defense attorney can mean the difference between facing a prison sentence and being found innocent.
Some things to keep in mind when dealing with law enforcement:
While a criminal defense attorney will work with you to protect your rights, there may be a brief time in which you are facing law enforcement alone. It is important that you navigate these interactions successfully in order to limit any unnecessary altercations.
- Never exhibit aggressive behavior toward a law enforcement official. This includes verbally disrespecting or physically resisting a police officer.
- Know your rights – if you would prefer to remain silent or you do not wish to consent to a search, make your intentions known in a calm, respectful manner to prevent further trouble.
- Hire a criminal defense attorney as soon as possible
What to look for in a criminal defense attorney:
