I recently hired Henry Kass and am so glad I did. Although I had a small matter, Henry treated me like I was his only client. He was professional, knowledgeable, expedient and his follow up was amazing. More importantly, he cared. He was able to use his relationships at the courthouse to our benefit. I highly recommend Henry Kass.

I would absolutely recommend Henry and the MKFM firm to all my friends and family. My case was a contested adoption and ended up also including a side appeal case as well. It was an extremely long and litigious case that required patience, expertise and attention to detail. We won our case handedly and we would not have without Henry's extensive knowledge in case law, brilliant trial composure and overall calm, composed and very confident demeanor. In fact, the Appellate court saw fit to have Henry's arguments entered into case law for future cases. If you need an attorney who can get the job done, look no further, this firm does not mess around.

I came to Henry with a divorce case previously handled by another attorney that was extremely long, complicated, and for which there was no similar precedent. Add to that a change in the divorce law while in process, and the complexity magnified. I truly believe had it not been for Henry's intelligence, tenacity, deep understanding/amazing total recall of the law, and spirited desire to make things right, my outcome would have been financially and psychologically disastrous. I cannot say enough good things about Henry's skill, competence and patience, and would highly recommend Henry to anyone looking for an ethicial and upstanding attorney for the best possible legal outcome.

My wife was test driving at a big name car dealership, when one of the dealerships people slammed into the back of her. Both my wife and my mother-in-law were in the car and suffered injuries. We were referred to him by a friend of ours, who took the case. A few months later, when all was said and done, they both got 5-figure checks in the settlement. We have since referred Joel to a number of friends and business associates. He has done a stellar job on each one. Highly recommended.

From the beginning of my experience with David, he has delivered on his promises. I was cited for a DUI. He told me he knew everyone including the DA's at Van Nuys court from his decades of experience; it was amusing but true. David referred me to Anthony Scott for my DMV hearing and with his expertise, the DMV set aside my license suspension. David ensured me that this favorable result and his expertise would strengthen my case. Two months later, my DUI charge was dismissed to an ex. speed plea! I prayed such a significant reduction, and with David's magic, it became a reality. If you're in need of a DUI criminal defense attorney, look no further.

I was charged with "DRIVING ON A REVOKED LICENSE". For the first time ever in my life, I was facing FELONY charges. Was worried beyond belief. Was I going really going to jail? What about my job? My bills? My family? According to the law I was facing up to several years in jail and hefty fines. Not to mention worst of all--a FELONY CONVICTION. Not good. Paul was assigned to my case through the Larry Davis Law Group. Simply put: HE'S EXCELLENT. I've never had, witnessed, or felt what it's like to have a REAL lawyer represent me. Long story short, my case was reduced to a misdemeanor with no jail time and minimal reporting duties to the probation department. I was blown away. This man is a pro's pro. He's completely competent and knows how to defend his clients. He has a counter move for everything that can be thrown at you in court from the prosecution. If you just trust in him (and the Larry David Law Group for the matter), I'm certain you will be more than pleased with your representation. I would give this man 1 million stars if I could. GREAT JOB AND THANK YOU AGAIN. My life as it is was given another chance and I plan to make the most of it. THANK YOU, THANK YOU, AND THANK YOU. )

I have been nothing but pleased with Joe and his entire staff. My first call into this office, Joe took my call directly and I could immediatly tell he was an attorney sincerely vested in his clients and thier cases. He has a level of humanity and integrity that is frankly hard to find in the field. He agreed to take on, what I was repeatedly told by nearly everyone, was an "unwinnable" case agianst The Department of Human Sevices over a TRAILS finding. Joe and his staff were so incredibly responsive, efficient and thorough in their assistance and handling of my case. Having them on my side to handle all the legalize, I knew that I was in the best of legal hands possible in a part of the law way over most people's heads. For the first time in years, I could focus just on LIVING. Our TRAILS appeal, that won an Administrative Law Judges ruling in our favor back in 2018, was overturned CDHS themeslves (because they can do that!) and went all the way to th Colorado Court of Appeals where it was unaimously reversed again by all three judges, back to the ALJ initial decision. Our case was also a precident setting, published opinion! I could not have done it without Joe's hard working team! Thank you Joe!!

Words cannot describe the care, patience, understanding and quality of work performed by Joe and his team.

He really knows how to handle people and made what was a very emotionally difficult situation just a little better by his thoughtful and caring manner. I really don't think another firm would have stuck with us and brought our matter to resolution. He is a skilled attorney and I count myself fortunate to have had him on my side.

Sarkis gathered the necessary evidence, started working very diligently with the detective who was investigating the case, had numerous telephone conversations with him, also had a face to face meeting and was able to get the file closed without any charges being filed. He was always accessible either via phone, text or an email. We were happy to hire Sarkis and would recommend him ti anyone. Thank you Sark!

I contacted David’s office and was meet with his lovely Assistant she went over the initial details and told me David will contact me. David did just that and told me what the price was going to be after the payment was made, David sprung into action and got to working on the case.

Always understanding that sometimes good people find themselves in bad situations and using his knowledge and position to work the magic needed. David actually listens with an open mind comprehending all details. Always returning calls and staying on top of things. When I was unjustly sentenced to life in prison, he fought until he seen me released. Since, I've found myself needing help again. David is amazing with results that leave me dumbfounded and living carefree. It is not unusual for him to make a call to just check on them to make sure everything is OK. I can't say enough. Other lawyers I know, well, you know. This man is the weight on the legal scale I would always call.

I’m not a repeat offender or an experienced criminal, so when I heard that there may be an arrest warrant issued in my name, I quickly panicked. I wasn't familiar with the arresting process and pictures from bad cop dramas filled my head. However, I called Carlos, and he calmly explained what I could expect and immediately researched my specific issue. Talking to Carlos was like talking to a calm friend – a really smart, calm friend. After looking into my situation, he presented options and we quickly came to a solution. Should I ever be in this situation again – and I hope I’m not – I will immediately call Carlos. He’s the gold standard.

Carlos Rodriguez did a wonderful job on my case, which was dismissed. Carlos was proactive, responsive, and very conscientious. He did a great job of obtaining all of the relevant evidence and then giving good advice on the best course of action. Carlos also went beyond the scope of his duties to rectify issues outside of the legal system caused by the false accusations made against me. His fee was reasonable and he never tried to "nickle and dime" me. I would strongly recommend hiring Carlos.

Matthew Sadler is an amazing attorney. He has helped me on several legal matters and needs. Unfortunately, I have been involved in a few unjust situations in which my options appeared limited, and a satisfactory resolution seemed out of reach. I met with many attorneys who would not take my case because I had already won my arbitration, and they did not want to tackle the many gray areas in my case. My situation was particularly challenging, one that would likely (and did) daunt less talented attorneys. I found that the lawyers that I contacted either didn’t want to take on a case that was primarily based on moral principle or they were too afraid of fighting the opposition. Matt Sadler was different. He refused to be intimidated and was not afraid to take on my adversaries. More importantly, he was willing to fight tirelessly to ensure that I received the justice I deserved. I was impressed with Matt’s work ethic for so many reasons. He always listened to me, took the time to read through my documents carefully, and probed further when more information was needed. Matt was honest, professional, organized, transparent, and candid when he needed to be. He always communicated with me in a timely manner and kept me informed about matters pertaining to my case. Matt personally addressed my case when it came time to go to trial, guiding me calmly through every step and ensuring that the process was civil and dignified. During the proceedings, Matt was completely focused with an aptitude that made me feel like his most important client. Ultimately, Matt negotiated a settlement that was satisfactory to me. Although more than seven years have passed since I first started working with him, I continue to send family and friends to Matt’s law firm. I recommend Matt unequivocally. There is no other attorney who compares to him. He has a high level of expertise in his field, and he has clearly demonstrated a high level of competence, capabilities, and compassion for justice. If you have a need for exceptional legal representation in personal injury, labor law or any other legal matter, I emphatically recommend the Sadler Law Group. You will indeed be fortunate if you acquire his services. I am extremely grateful to Matt Sadler for resolving my legal issues, and he will forever be a hero to my family and me. Thank you, Dan Nolan

While inquiring a new attorney for my (high conflict) family law case I asked both family and friends for recommendations. Attorney Chatterton came highly recommended from both sides. I was immediately impressed by Attorney Chatterton during our initial consultation. Not only was I able to give ample information but also very specific details pertaining to my case that prior attorneys had dismissed my concerns for. Attorney Chatterton did not once interrupt and instead, listened intently to my concerns, and at one point asked me to continue when I thought I was taking up his time. He found my case extremely interesting. Ive now been through five years of legal representation and never has a prior attorney been able to do what Attorney Chatterton accomplished for me. With less than a week to prepare before the motion hearing, Attorney Chatterton was able to analyze my case history and represent me to the fullest, without any further hearings, or case modifications (exactly as I was hoping). I only wish I would have had his representation from the beginning. Attorney Chatterton’s professional and legal experience has provided me with secure advocacy for all my future legal needs. I will continue to look to him for guidance and recommend him to others due to his outstanding and exceptional services.

Camy Schawm Wilcox and her team are some of the best family law attorneys in Central Florida. Camy handled my divorce and dependency case involving a termination of parental rights. I believe Camy is the only family law attorney in Central Florida who could have achieved the outcome we did, most attorneys in the area were simply not qualified or willing to take on a case this complicated. Camy was on top of everything from day one and addressed every curveball thrown at us with speed and efficiency, (and boy were there a lot of them). Camy is very honest and straightforward with her thoughts and opinions. Personally, I love that! I never found myself wondering what she meant when she said something. I tend to be blunt myself and appreciate direct communication. Camy can absolutely be aggressive in court when she needs to be however she’s also very respectful and courteous to all parties involved in your cases. Camy works very hard for her clients and makes it a point not to engage in unethical or unprofessional behavior. Even when the opposing side is engaging in this type of behavior Camy maintains her integrity. Time and time again, the outcomes in the end were a good reflection of her professional behavior. This certainly doesn’t go unnoticed by the judges or their assistants either. To say Camy is a hard worker is an understatement!! She is a machine!! Camy and her team always communicated with me regularly. Camy even worked my case from her mother’s hospital bedside when it became necessary and it wasn’t uncommon to see an email come through during the evening hours. That said, when there’s nothing really happening (which happens a lot in the court system), Camy NEVER bombarded me with trivial things just to bill hours. If everything was quiet, then everything was quiet. This can be nerve wracking, however running up your bill with unnecessary questions and comments when there’s no reason would be nerve wracking as well. Camy, associate attorney Leah, paralegals Gio and Shannon, and firm administrator Debbie are an incredible team of professionals who worked tirelessly for my family. They are absolutely the ONLY attorneys who could have done what they needed to do to protect innocent children from being placed in harm’s way due to a biological connection. I highly recommend Camy and her team to anyone who needs a family law attorney or an attorney for a dependency case. I haven’t had a need for representation in any of the other areas of law that the firm practices in, but I wouldn’t hesitate to call them should the need arise. Camy doesn’t take on cases in areas of the law that she isn’t familiar with and if something happens to come up that she isn’t familiar with, (as it did in my cases) she never hesitated to reach out to a colleague for assistance. That speaks volumes about her character to me. My cases certainly were not considered “normal” circumstances and this firm fought long and hard for my family until we were ALL safe. For our family, they are Superheroes!! I still think of these ladies often and my youngest still asks about them and misses them too! After going through something like we did with an amazing team of “Superheroes” standing beside us throuought the duration, there is a fondness in my heart almost like that of family that just can't be explained in words. Thank you Camy Wilcox and Associates for all you do!! The slogan on their website without a doubt sums it up “When you're going through your worst, we are at our Best”

My situation was on that I would never wish on my worst enemy. I was falsely accused, and the law required a sentence which would have consumed most of my adult life. Jill was recommended to me by another Lawyer who is amazing herself, which let me know that Jill is the BEST of the best. Throughout the process Jill exhibited a superior knowledge of the system, a familiarity of the city and process which only comes on the other side of years of experience, and a professionalism that is unmatched. I was justifiably afraid, at times wanting to play "backseat lawyer" due to the black hole which is Google. Jill maneuvered me through it all, the emotional ups and downs, and achieved an outcome that is nothing short of amazing. While "justice" in my case is an approximation, I'm free of this burden, able to live my life and pursue a future. While I want to put this whole tribulation behind me, and hope to never have to use her services again, I have no desire to lose contact with Jill as a person. Having someone save your life, and be such a true soul in the process is something beyond value. If you need representation, don't hire a lawyer, hire a GLADIATOR, hire Jill Polster.

Mr. Ramey has handled several traffic issues for me in the past - alleged super speeding, school bus passing, and red light violations (among other things) – and my charges have always been dropped or reduced (no points!!). I'm a busy girl with more to do than attend hearings, and I'd rather not admit guilt by paying the fine (and risk upping my insurance), so I always consult Mr. Ramey no matter how minor the ticket. (Rolling stop, fender-bender...I've called up his office at least a half-dozen times over the past ten years and have recommend him just as often.) A girlfriend of mine recently got into a bit of trouble. Not to get into details, but the charge was more involved than my usual petty ticket, and I (of course) referred her to Mr. Ramey. Mr. Ramey was not able to work on the case directly, but his associate, Gregory Bianco worked magic and got all charges dropped. She could not be happier, and I'm just glad Mr. Bianco was able to provide the same level of service I promised her Mr. Ramey would.

I called the law offices to contest a traffic ticket. Being my first time having a ticket contested, I called the offices a lot more than necessary and they were 100% helpful and very patient with my questions. They told me what could happen and they were spot on. Best of all, they got rid of my ticket.

Pat Gitre is the quintessential genius in the legal field. She is the epitome of a guardian angel and the attorney for any integrous human pursuing justice. Ms. Gitre embodies the fundamental qualities to fight and care for others’ human rights. Gitre’s legal brilliance is unparalleled, with a distinctive drive to circumspectly achieve the principal outcome. Her unremitting passion in the diligent pursuit of truth displays a level of tenacity and grit directly aligning to presenting an infallible case for her clients. I, a naïve novice to the unethical underworld of one’s capacity to make false assertions, engage personal political agendas, and crave unwarranted greed, ensued a necessitated need for Pat Gitre’s aptitude. Immediately upon the first conversation with Gitre, an inner certainty was established to aid my desire for sureness and ultimately substantiated such thorough investigating with my case. She worked with me personally, communicated with me directly, and cared about me genuinely. Ms. Gitre sought critical particulars and unapologetically asked direct questions to gain an all-encompassing depiction of what transpired with the false accusers. I instantaneously consumed a knowing that God placed her in my life, at this exact moment, to traverse my case proving my innocence. Justice consummated by Gitre’s relentless, unwavering, and uncompromising exertion for truth and rightness. She vigorously and victoriously achieved favor of the Court to grant a motion to Remand a Grand Jury indictment. Ms. Gitre’s persistence for aptness in a fair and unprejudiced representation fueled the drive to attack an area of legal proceedings that most rarely venture, much less conquer. She continued assertiveness to influence the dismissal of all deceptive charges brought against me, further corroborating that Pat Gitre was indeed my miracle vessel from The Lord. Pat Gitre’s keen awareness of societal behaviors, her ability to examine the most obscure details, along her presence of mind to professionally piece together an otherwise unidentifiable puzzle has earned her the rightful highest praise. She is direct yet compassionate in her steadfast approach with the highest level of integrity and professionalism. I solemnly advocate the recommendation of Pat Gitre and urge any human, necessitating such paramount justice, to retain the services of Pat Gitre, by far the most promising experienced attorney.

Patricia is very professional and straight to the point. She was very helpful and thorough in my case. She explained everything to me in detail. Thanks to her my charges were dropped from several possible felonies of transportation and sales of cannabis to a misdemeanor for possession of cannabis. I don't intend to get in trouble again out in AZ, but she would be the first person I call!

We worked with Ms Higdon for a case for my son. From the very first meeting she was very empathetic and very easy to approach. She met us and within seconds she was already guiding us. Since he had health issues it was a very delicate case to handle. But she was able to get it to our favor. She was very professional to send all the reminders for all the documents that were needed and was always on top of it. I loved working with her and she was always very encouraging. I would highly recommend her to any one. I have heard many lawyers are very money minded but she cared about her clients. She was very straightforward and said what her fees was but after that it was her client that she worried about and did all that she could to help her client.

I cannot say enough good things about Mary Higdon. First of all, she is extremely kind. That matters when under stress. Secondly, she gave me a free consultation, but I hired her halfway through, because I loved her manner. Her willingness to listen (at a time most lawyers wouldn't answer their phone) and the way she immediately told me what to expect in the next day/weeks ahead was so calming and helpful. She is impressively communicative. Every time I contacted her, I heard from her almost immediately, but always that same day. We have not met in person but she gives you the feeling you are her most important client. I found her retainer fee to be completely reasonable. Don't think twice. You won't be sorry. Hire Mary Higdon.

I had the pleasure of hiring Mary Higdon as my attorney for a few misdemeanors I encountered while I was attending IU. She is unbelievably responsive - When this happened, I gave her a panicked phone call on a Sunday afternoon (Outside of business hours) and she was able to pick up and assure me I was going to be OK over the phone before meeting with her in person. When we first met, I asked her why she got into law in the first place, and I was answered with a genuine story from past experience on the mistreatments of defendants. Over the course of the case, I could tell immediately that story was the truth because she did everything she could to help me in my case, reduce the sentence, make sure I was being treated fairly, and able to support myself while the trial was ongoing. Here I am a year later, truly pleased with the outcome of my case, which is my I am writing this review. If you want a lawyer who ACTUALY cares about her defendants and will listen to what you're saying, provide a great plan of action, and frequently check-in with you; even when there is no need, go with Mary Higdon. I'm thankful to have found her while I was living in Bloomington.

I am a Chinese national who recently moved to the United States. Due to my unfamiliarity with American traffic laws, I once failed to stop in time when I saw a police car with its sirens blaring. At the time, I didn't have an Indiana driver's license, and due to a language barrier, the police arrested me and charged me with attempting to use a vehicle to escape—a felony in Indiana. Fortunately, I met ROY, a very friendly and understanding lawyer who took the time to talk to me about other things to make me feel better. He advised me to get a driver's license, which I promptly did. At my first court appearance, ROY explained my situation in detail to the prosecutor, emphasizing that it was a misunderstanding. The prosecutor accepted this explanation and dismissed the charges. The entire process went very smoothly, and I didn't receive any punishment. ROY's fees were also very fair; I ended up spending much less on legal fees than I had anticipated. I highly recommend ROY, and I will certainly refer my friends to him if they encounter similar problems in the future.

Hiring Mr. Butler was one of the best decisions we made when we needed legal assistance. He was very professional, kept us informed at all times and was always honest no matter what the situation was. Mr. Bulter also did not "break the bank". He was very fair with his billing hours and if it was something that would help him in cases in the future (discovery), he did not charge us! The one thing he told us quite often was, "Live your life and let me do the worrying for you." And that is exactly what he did. He may have had other clients, but with his availability to us and consistent communication during any development no matter how minute or big it was, you would have never known it. He made us feel as though we were a top priority, which helped ease our minds during a time that could have been extremely stressful. I pray we will never need his assistance again, but we are definitely keeping him on speed dial, because with him on your side, your half way to victory!

What a Criminal Defense Lawyer Can Do for You

A criminal defense lawyer provides legal representation to individuals or organizations accused of criminal conduct. If you're facing criminal charges, a defense lawyer will work to protect your rights, build a defense strategy, and ensure you receive a fair trial. Their primary goal is to reduce or dismiss charges, secure an acquittal, or negotiate a favorable plea deal.

Criminal defense lawyers have extensive knowledge of criminal law and court procedures. They investigate your case, identify weaknesses in the prosecution's evidence, and represent you in court, ensuring that you have the best possible defense.

When Should I Hire a Criminal Defense Lawyer?

It’s crucial to hire a criminal defense lawyer as soon as possible if you are facing any criminal charges. Some situations in which you should seek legal representation include:

  • Arrest or police questioning: If you've been arrested or are under investigation, hiring a lawyer early on can prevent self-incrimination and protect your rights during police questioning.
  • Felony charges: Crimes such as murder, assault, drug trafficking, or robbery carry severe penalties, including long prison sentences. A defense lawyer is essential in these cases.
  • Misdemeanor charges: Even for less serious offenses like DUI, theft, or simple assault, a lawyer can help reduce penalties, negotiate alternatives to jail, or get charges dismissed.
  • Plea negotiations: If you’re considering a plea bargain, a lawyer can evaluate the deal, advise you on its consequences, and negotiate for more favorable terms.
  • Probation or parole violations: If you’ve been accused of violating probation or parole, a lawyer can defend you against additional penalties or revocation.
  • Juvenile offenses: For minors charged with criminal acts, a criminal defense lawyer can protect their future by minimizing legal repercussions or keeping the case in juvenile court.

What Does a Criminal Defense Lawyer Do?

Criminal defense lawyers provide comprehensive legal services to protect their clients’ rights throughout the criminal justice process. Their duties include:

  • Case evaluation and investigation: Reviewing the evidence, interviewing witnesses, and investigating the facts to develop a strong defense strategy.
  • Legal advice: Advising you on your rights, the charges you’re facing, and potential defense strategies, including whether to take a plea deal or go to trial.
  • Negotiating plea bargains: Working with prosecutors to negotiate a plea deal that could reduce charges or minimize penalties.
  • Court representation: Representing you in all court hearings, including bail hearings, pretrial motions, trials, and sentencing hearings.
  • Filing motions: Filing motions to dismiss charges, suppress evidence, or reduce bail, depending on the specifics of your case.
  • Trial preparation and defense: Preparing a defense strategy and presenting arguments, evidence, and witnesses during trial to contest the prosecution's case.
  • Appeals: If you are convicted, a defense lawyer can appeal the conviction or sentence, arguing errors in the trial process or legal rulings.

How Are Criminal Defense Lawyers Paid?

Criminal defense lawyers generally charge clients in one of three ways, depending on the complexity of the case and the lawyer’s experience. Payment structures include:

  • Flat fee: For straightforward cases (e.g., minor misdemeanors), some lawyers charge a one-time flat fee that covers all aspects of the defense.
  • Hourly rate: For more complex or ongoing cases, lawyers may charge by the hour, with rates varying based on the lawyer’s experience and geographic location.
  • Retainer fee: In cases where extensive work is expected, the client may pay a retainer fee upfront. The lawyer then bills against that retainer for their work on the case.

The cost of criminal defense services can vary greatly, so it’s important to discuss fees during your initial consultation.

How Much Does a Criminal Defense Lawyer Cost?

The cost of hiring a criminal defense lawyer depends on several factors, including the severity of the charges, the complexity of the case, and the lawyer’s experience. General cost guidelines are:

  • Misdemeanor cases: For relatively minor offenses, such as a DUI or petty theft, a flat fee may range from $1,500 to $5,000.
  • Felony cases: More serious charges, such as assault or drug trafficking, can range from $10,000 to $100,000 or more, depending on the complexity and duration of the case.
  • Hourly rates: For cases billed by the hour, lawyers may charge anywhere from $150 to $500 or more per hour, depending on their expertise and the case's location.
  • Additional expenses: You may also be responsible for other costs, such as filing fees, expert witness fees, or the cost of private investigators.

Be sure to clarify the lawyer’s fee structure and any potential additional costs during your consultation.

Top Questions to Ask a Criminal Defense Lawyer

Before hiring a criminal defense lawyer, you’ll want to ensure that they’re a good fit for your case. Here are key questions to ask:

  1. What is your experience with cases like mine?
    Make sure the lawyer has a strong track record with the specific type of criminal charges you’re facing, whether it’s DUI, drug offenses, or violent crimes.
  2. What is your fee structure?
    Ask how the lawyer charges for their services and whether you’ll be responsible for any additional costs.
  3. What are the potential outcomes of my case?
    A good lawyer should provide an honest assessment of your case and the likelihood of dismissal, a plea bargain, or conviction.
  4. How many cases have you taken to trial?
    While many criminal cases settle with a plea deal, it’s important to hire a lawyer with courtroom experience in case your case goes to trial.
  5. Who will handle my case?
    Ask if the lawyer will be personally involved or if other attorneys in the firm will handle most of the work.
  6. How do you communicate with your clients?
    Be clear on how often and through what channels you can expect updates on your case.

How to Check the Credibility of a Criminal Defense Lawyer

To verify the credibility of a criminal defense lawyer, take the following steps:

  • Check their standing with the state bar: Confirm that the lawyer is licensed and in good standing with your state’s bar association. Look for any past disciplinary actions or complaints.
  • Read online reviews and testimonials: Platforms like Avvo, Martindale-Hubbell, or Google can provide insights from previous clients about the lawyer’s communication, professionalism, and case outcomes.
  • Ask for references: A reputable lawyer should have past clients or other professionals who can speak to their competence and work ethic.
  • Review their case history: Look at the lawyer’s website or professional profile to see their experience with criminal cases, including high-profile or complex cases.
  • Look for trial experience: If your case might go to trial, make sure the lawyer has a strong history of courtroom advocacy and success.

What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?

To make the most of your first consultation with a criminal defense lawyer, bring the following:

  • Details of your case: Be prepared to provide a detailed account of the charges against you, including any documents related to your arrest, police reports, and court dates.
  • Criminal history: If you have any prior criminal convictions, inform your lawyer so they can understand how that may affect your current case.
  • List of witnesses or evidence: If there are any potential witnesses or evidence that may support your defense, share this information during the consultation.
  • Questions for the lawyer: Prepare questions about their experience, legal strategy, and fees to ensure you understand how they will handle your case.
  • Bail or release documents: If you’ve been released on bail, bring any paperwork related to your release conditions or restrictions.

By being well-prepared, you can help your lawyer quickly assess your situation and begin building an effective defense strategy.
