Criminal cases always cause
distress for those who are involved. It is a good idea to contact a criminal
defense attorney for help.
To give you an idea who to
contact in New Jersey for legal help, here are some guidelines:
1. Do these lawyers have expertise in the field of criminal law?
Criminal cases are different and more
complex than civil cases and corporate cases. Very few lawyers have expertise
in all areas. Most lawyers specialize in specific areas of the law. Try to find
the one who is a real expert in criminal law.
2. Do these lawyers have a winning record?
The size of the law firm is not
important. Your only concern should be the lawyer who is going to represent
you. How many cases has the lawyer won? Does the lawyer have a winning record?
These are important questions to answer before hiring a lawyer.
3. How long has the lawyer been a NJ criminal defense lawyer?
Experience counts. How long has
this lawyer worked in criminal defense? If the lawyer you are choosing has handled
one or two cases, then they might not have the experience you need. However, if
a lawyer is good, inexperience might not be an issue. If the case is complex, then
you might want a more experienced lawyer.
4. Has the NJ criminal defense lawyer won a similar case?
How much experience does the
lawyer have with the type of charges you are facing? There are cases that seem
similar to other cases, but they are different. It is good to try to find a lawyer who has
handled a case similar to yours.
5.
Is the NJ criminal defense lawyer knowledgeable with the case and the
law?
The criminal defense lawyer who
is going to handle your case should be well aware of the facts. The lawyer
should also be aware of laws that can help your case.
