Experience and communication are, in our opinion, the two most important factors to consider in hiring a criminal attorney. Your attorney should be experienced in handling the crimes with which you are charged, and should have extensive trial experience. While trial is never the preferred outcome, it is sometimes unavoidable and you must be sure to hire someone who is up to the task. Criminal cases can last for a while. You are hiring someone not just to represent your interests, but to serve as your partner throughout the process. You will want to find someone who can keep you well-informed through all the inevitable ups and downs.
