What Steps Should You Take If You’ve Been Charged With A Crime?
If you’ve been charged with a crime, it is important to remain calm, but there are some immediate steps you can take to help your case. These include:
- Remain silent: One of the most important steps you can take is to remember – and invoke – your right to remain silent. Avoid discussing details of the case with anyone except your attorney.
- Gather evidence: Gather any documents or evidence related to your situation. This might include emails, messages or receipts that could support your case. Also, make a list of potential witnesses who might have helpful information.
- Show up: Attend all scheduled court appearances. Missing a court date can lead to additional charges.
The sooner you retain an experienced defense attorney, the faster you have someone looking out for your rights and best interests. You can trust us. We are dedicated to helping our clients understand the charges against them and guide them through their legal proceedings.
Former Prosecutors, Experienced Defense Lawyers
As former assistant district attorneys, our founding partners and criminal defense attorneys prepare every case as if it were going to trial. They get to work immediately, investigating every aspect of your case. Knowing how to find weaknesses in a prosecutor’s case is a tactic that can be used to your advantage. Our lawyers protect your rights by seeking to suppress any evidence that was obtained illegally. They will seize any opportunity to have the charges against you dismissed.
Consequences Of Being Charged With A Crime
Being charged with a crime can have serious consequences. Consequences of a conviction can include fines, probation or even jail time, depending on the severity of the charge. A criminal record can also impact your future, affecting job opportunities and housing options.
Beyond legal penalties, there can be personal repercussions. Relationships with family and friends might suffer, and you could experience stress or anxiety. Additionally, your driving privileges or professional licenses could be at risk. Each case is different, and the consequences depend on various factors. We want to support you during this time.
Criminal Charges And The Impact On Immigration
Not all criminal defense attorneys have experience with the possible consequences a criminal charge and subsequent conviction can have on an individual’s immigration status. If you are not an American citizen and you have been accused of a crime, it is critically important to prove your innocence. Proving your innocence is the only way to make sure that the charges against you don’t affect any ongoing immigration proceedings. We work with clients who are concerned about their immigration status and can create a comprehensive legal defense that is unique to their situation.
