What do Criminal Defense Lawyers do?
The goal of a criminal defense lawyer is to help you navigate the criminal justice system and help you obtain the most favorable outcome possible for your particular situation. If law enforcement is investigating or arresting you, a criminal defense attorney will make sure that they respect your rights. A variety of procedural issues can also be addressed by defense attorneys, such as:
- Reduce your bail
- Challenging your arrest
- All incriminating statements that you have made to police should be thrown out
- Determining whether any of your rights guaranteed by the United States Constitution have been violated
- Answering any questions you might have regarding your criminal charge
- Working with the prosecutor to obtain a plea deal
Your attorney will also conduct their own investigation to look for the best strategy to defend against your charges, including representing you at trial if necessary.
