Defense Law

Criminal defense lawyers provide legal representation of people and companies under investigation for or charged with criminal actions. A defense law firm represents people in matters ranging from local traffic offenses, State-level misdemeanor charges, and felony charges, to Federal criminal charges. Defense law firms manage legal aspects relative to an investigation, arrest, bond hearing, plea negotiations, jury trials, sentencing, appeals, and a variety of post-conviction matters. Many defense attorneys specialize in a niche such as sex crimes, drug crimes, DUI, and Federal crimes. Many of the most experienced defense attorneys with a background working for a District Attorney's office have the advantage of knowing how a prosecution team thinks and plans. A person charged with a crime is not required to hire a lawyer, however; it is very strongly advised to do so.
