Are Criminal Defense Lawyers Worth the Money? 

In Uncategorized by Garrett, Walker, Aycoth & Olson, Attorneys at Law

If you are charged with a crime – whether it is something you actually did or are innocent of – it is crucial to have an experienced criminal defense lawyer, like one from Tuttle Law, P.A., on your side who can help protect your rights. Not only will your lawyer know how to navigate the situation, but he or she will do much of the work for your case so that you can focus on other elements of your life while this is all going on. 

A Lawyer Will Collect Evidence

It is important to have a good defense in court. An alibi is often the very best way to prove that you are innocent of committing a crime, but in reality, it is the prosecution’s job to prove that you are, without a doubt, guilty of the crime they are charging you with. Your criminal defense lawyer will know what kind of evidence would help you get off of your charge more quickly and what to not share in court. 

A Lawyer Is Often Ultimately Less Expensive Than Losing Your Case

Your freedom is priceless. You do not want to give up any of your valuable freedoms just because you are trying to save money on legal representation. It is important to have an experienced lawyer on your side so that you can have a greater chance of getting off of your case with as little punishment as possible. This includes both fines as well as jail time. If you go to prison, it is not only an upsetting experience, but you will also be unable to work and continue making money at your job.

It can also affect things like your work life in the future and even where you are allowed to live.

You need to have a lawyer on your side who can save you from these expensive fees and help you retain your freedoms.

 

Contact a Lawyer Right Away

Whether you are guilty or innocent of the crime you are being charged with, you need to reach out to a lawyer immediately who can begin forming your case and speaking to the other parties on your behalf. This will keep you from saying anything that could jeopardize your case or be incriminating in court. A lawyer will be an incredibly valuable resource for you, and you need to make sure that you do not take your right to have legal representation for granted.
