This article gives a brief outline of how a criminal defense attorney will assist you with your criminal defense case, from surrendering to police through to the final outcome at trial.A criminal defense lawyer can assist you if you are charged with a criminal offense from the first step of the way throughout the entire case. There is much more to a criminal defense case than just the trial. In most cases, a defense attorney can help before you have even been charged. If you are aware you are under investigation or face imminent charges, a criminal defense attorney can arrange with law enforcement officials for your surrender while ensuring your legal rights are upheld.
A criminal defense lawyer will meet with you after your arrest, in jail if necessary, to review your case and discuss strategy with you. Your attorney will attempt to have you released from custody at that point or, if that is not possible, seek release or request bail at the arraignment. If release and bail are denied, a criminal defense attorney will reapply at every permissible stage of the prosecution process.
A criminal defense lawyer has the research tools and expertise to find applicable statutes and case laws to support your case. If necessary, he or she can hire a private investigator to gather statements from witnesses, visit the scene of the crime and obtain expert opinions.
If it is agreed that a plea bargain is the most advantageous route, a criminal defense attorney will negotiate with the prosecutor for a dismissal or reduced charge and lesser sentence. Otherwise, if the case is to proceed to trial, the criminal defense attorney will represent you at the arraignment, preliminary hearing, grand jury hearing (if you testify), pre-trial motions (if necessary), and pre-trial conference. In the meantime, the criminal defense attorney will request and respond to demands for discovery.
Should your case ultimately end up at trial, the criminal defense attorney is experienced at addressing the judge, jury and prosecution attorneys. He or she is aware of the best techniques for direct and cross-examination of witnesses.
Finally, if you are convicted of the criminal offense, the criminal defense attorney will, with your consent, propose a sentence that is in your best interests or file a notice of appeal.
