Criminal Defense Attorney

Unlike Personal Injuries, a Criminal Defense attorney is needed when a person has been charged with a crime. This person is often referred to as a defendant, while the person that attempts to prove the charges is called the prosecutor. There are numerous criminal defenses available that may allow a defendant to avoid punishment for his or her actions.

A defendant can negotiate a plea with the prosecutor or can stay quiet and make the prosecutor prove its case. During the process, the defendant can challenge the weight and sufficiency of the evidence that is being offered by the prosecution. The defendant can take a more active approach by offering defenses against the charges.
