How can a criminal defence lawyer help me?

Criminal defence lawyers complete the tasks that must be handled in criminal law cases. They may contact the courts and appropriate lawyers to resolve matters, examine the evidence, present arguments to courts demonstrating their clients’ innocence in the criminal matter, or negotiate with governing authorities to lessen repercussions.
Price of a good criminal lawyer?
The costs of a criminal defence lawyer vary based on the matter at hand. Fees can vary based on the amount of time in court, the type of work associated with the case, and a number of other factors. At Dribbin & Brown, it is our policy that in Magistrates’ Court matters, we provide a quote for services rendered whenever possible – so our clients will know what their representation will cost at the onset. For matters in the County and Supreme Courts, we do our best to explain our fees when the representation begins.

What can I do if I’m not in a financial position to afford a criminal defence lawyer?
