Innocent until proven guilty? Yeah, right. That notion seems to be more myth than Constitutional protection these days.

That's why you need an attorney who will listen to your side of the story. You need an attorney who will not be in a hurry to plead you out just to be done with you. And finally, you need an attorney who is not afraid to march into court and fight for you.

There are times when having a lawyer can be considered optional. For instance, a traffic ticket is a great chance to pretend to be Perry Mason.

However, if you are being charged with a Class B Misdemeanor or worse, trying to represent yourself can be a costly mistake.

The District Attorney's office will not negotiate with a defendant. Therefore, any plea you enter is done with no knowledge of your likely punishment. Also, attorneys are trained in how to spot the pertinent legal issues in your case in putting together a defense. Finally, attorneys understand the implications of a criminal record and can help minimize its effect upon your life.
