Frequently Asked Questions
How Much Does A Criminal Lawyer Usually Cost?
Criminal lawyers base their fees on the complexity of the underlying case. For example, a lawyer will typically charge a lesser amount for a misdemeanor offense versus a felony offense. Fees can vary dramatically between the two types of cases, and our firm assesses each case individually.
How Do I Find A Good Criminal Lawyer?
I primarily recommend that you look for an attorney with experience and with a knowledge base in the specific criminal charges you are facing. I receive a lot of client referrals from existing client recommendations and from lawyers in the community. Client reviews on online services such as avvo.com and Google can be helpful, but it is important to be skeptical of these reviews, too. Above all things, interview attorneys and go with one who makes you feel comfortable and is honest with you about the strengths and weaknesses of your case.
What Do Criminal Lawyers Do?
Criminal lawyers represent individuals who are charged by the local, state, or federal government with criminal offenses and/or violations of city ordinances or state or federal statutes. This representation can begin as soon as there is a criminal investigation and can extend all the way to trial and possible criminal sentencing. Attorneys attend court with their clients, discuss cases with the prosecution and the judge, and work to either negotiate a resolution resulting in a plea or represent clients at trial.
What Is The Difference Between A Civil Lawyer And A Criminal Lawyer?
Civil lawyers represent individuals and businesses in disputes with individuals and businesses. Civil lawyers generally seek money damages or equitable relief to address their grievances. Criminal lawyers represent their clients for violations of criminal statutes or ordinances.
