Company description
When you have a criminal charge against you, the first thing you should do is hire an experienced lawyer. Representing yourself in court is always a bad idea, and public defenders are so overworked that they hardly have time to think about your case, let alone prepare a proper defense strategy. The benefits of having a good lawyer on your side extend to more than just a favorable outcome of your case. A good lawyer can console you and guide you through the court process so that you understand what is going on rather than being left in the darkCriminal defense cases can have a variety of different solutions. A good attorney can recommend probation and house arrest instead of incarceration, or recommend rehab for drug-related charges instead of time in jail. If the crime is a first offense, then a good lawyer could even recommend a suspended imposition of sentence (SIS), wherein the accused goes on probation with the prosecuting attorney and the charges are dropped if probation is complete.
