Hiring the Right Criminal Defense Lawyer for You
After experiencing being arrested, most people find themselves in a frightened or panicked state. It is a trying time to make important decisions, but it is imperative that you do your best to remain calm and contact a criminal defense attorney before anything takes place in your case. No matter the reason you are there, being in court can be a nerve-wracking experience, but with a talented, seasoned criminal defense attorney by your side, you’ll feel comfortable and secure in the knowledge that your best interests are being represented, your rights defended and your future protected.
There are several key factors to consider when choosing the right lawyer for you:
Area of Expertise
You should look for an attorney that is board certified in criminal trial law. Board certification is an important aspect of specialization; it provides additional education, evaluation and expertise so they can better serve their clients. Board Certification shows the lawyer is seriously dedicated to his practice and has made substantial effort and investment in becoming a better attorney.
Many criminal defense attorneys specialize in handling specific types of cases such as DUI, Drug and Violent crimes. You want an attorney that has extensive experience representing clients who have been charged with crimes similar to yours. They will have a greater knowledge of that area of law therefore being better prepared to defend you.
Communication
Effective communication skills are such an important quality to look for in a criminal defense attorney. You want someone who is articulate with their words when arguing in your defense, but also someone who can clearly explain the details of your case with you in a language that you can understand. While the facts being presented in court are of the utmost importance, often times, a persuasive argument hinges on the eloquence of the speaker.
Professionalism
You need to have faith in your criminal defense attorney and their ability to build a strong defense for you. Professionalism needs to be shown both inside and outside of the courtroom. Your attorney shows professionalism by being a competent, effective, respectful advocate for you.
