Oftentimes I get new clients that come into my office complaining about their previous attorney. One of the most common complaints from them is that they felt ignored by their former lawyer. They felt like he or she did not explain the case to them, that they weren’t available, that they simply did not care. That will not be the case when you hire me. I make myself available for my clients around their schedule and keep them updated every step of the way. Unlike some other lawyers, I treat my clients as a partner when I handle their cases. I know that their cases are often the most important thing going on in their lives and that they need to be kept up to date with the most recent details of their case, so that they can make informed decisions.
Sometimes folks ask me “Well, can’t I just represent myself?” Depending on your background, the answer here might be yes – however, while you may be capable of representing yourself, facing criminal charges and navigating the criminal justice system is one of the most significant and challenging events in a person’s life, so why would you want to? I usually tell people that you also might be able to pull your own tooth, but isn’t it better to have an experienced Dentist do it for you? You need a professional who truly understands the big picture and knows how to get the job done. With your freedom on the line, don’t leave anything up to chance – make sure that you hire an experienced criminal defense attorney to represent your interests and fight for you every step of the way.
