Criminal Defense

When you’re accused of a crime, it is important to seek out legal counsel as soon as possible.

The unfortunate fact is that you don’t have to be guilty to go to prison. An excellent example of this is the Timothy Masters case, this is a local case where an innocent man spent the better part of 10 years in prison before it was determined that there had been a mistake and he was released.

Many people make the mistake of thinking they are doing the right thing and will talk to the police. The truth is that when police are talking to you, they are generally talking to you to get information to build a case against you. In the unlikely event that talking to the police is the right thing to do, an attorney should make this determination for you before you speak to an officer.

Police are trained and experienced in interrogation. You need to equal the playing field by having someone in your corner that is experienced in this area before you talk to the police. Lastly, if and when the day of trial arrives, you need to have someone that will do the best they can to defend your position. Going about this alone can have dire consequences.
