Criminal Defense Attorneys Lawrenceville

Question: How do you prove that you did not open a credit card on some one else name ( daughter)? Mother is being accuse

Answer: The beauty with criminal law is the defendant does not have to prove anything. The state must prove that the person did the crime. Therefore the state will provide discovery (e.g. police report, videotapes, signature cards), which will give the defendant some idea of what the evidence will be at trial. If the accused did not do it, she should retain an attorney and demand a jury trial. If the accused does not want to admit to what he/she has done, she/he must definitely retain an attorney to see if the case can be beaten despite the truth. If the accused cannto afford an attorney, it is anyone's guess what will happen. Just remember: A conviction will never be expunged.

About Me

I hung a shingle in February 2000, because I saw that individuals charged with criminal offenses were being underserved by the attorneys practicing criminal law. Since February 2000, I have represented more than two thousand criminal clients. I only practice criminal law, but I do everything from violations of probation to Supreme Court appeals. There are few attorneys under the age of sixty that have my level of experience. I have tried more than two hundred major felony jury trials. I have tried more than fifty misdemeanor jury trials. In Philadelphia as a prosecutor, I tried more than two thousand bench trials. I have conducted more than three thousand preliminary hearings and bond hearings. Yet, I still have the energy at forty-five to serve my current clients. There is nothing that will occur in a courtroom that I have not experienced before. When you are looking for an attorney, experience is everything.
