Suddenly requiring a criminal law attorney, after being arrested for a crime that you did not commit, or being improperly charged for the wrong offense, is more commonplace than you may think. Mistaken identity, being in the wrong place at the wrong time, association with the wrong party and circumstantial evidence are all reasons why a person may be wrongfully charged.

Innocent people are much more likely to make statements, with the assumption that they can explain matters, than is the guilty party. These statements are often damaging to their case, and often taken out of context or improperly noted by the police, without the person realizing it.

Simply saying where you where to prove innocence to an arresting officer, after being informed of your legal rights, could place you exactly where you should not have been. Police are trained experts at trickery – for example, asking you where you were not – to get you to say where you were. You need to have legal counsel present to protect you during any and all questioning. Police will often curtail their questioning in the presence of a lawyer.

As your criminal law attorney, we will thoroughly examine every minute and every step leading up to your arrest. We will question all areas that show even the slightest doubt, any violation of your rights, improper police procedures, witness credibility and motives, and also the methods used in the gathering of evidence. If your case does proceed, we will fight for dismissal or reduction of charges. We will do all we can to win your case and prevent you from having a criminal record, facing high fines, probation and possible jail time.

An experienced criminal law attorney can mean the difference between having a criminal record for the rest of your life without hope of ever passing a background check, and having a spotless record. Your fingerprints, taken by local police for even a misdemeanor and placed on file with the FBI, can carry far reaching implications: they can prevent you from being hired for certain jobs, running for public office or being approved for several different state licenses. An arrest can come back to haunt you 20 or 30 years in the future in ways that you would never expect.

Even a criminal trespassing charge, receiving stolen property or a simple assault charge can be potentially detrimental to your future and must be taken very seriously. Never admit anything to police or the prosecution until you speak to your attorney.
