What do criminal lawyers do?
Criminal defence lawyers represent clients in matters involving criminal law violations. Criminal defence lawyers handle the majority of tasks associated with criminal law cases. For example, criminal defence lawyers can examine the evidence against you and demonstrate to courts that the evidence is not as clear-cut as the police state it is. Criminal defence lawyers can also negotiate with governing authorities to lessen sentences or assist in the removal of charges from your record. Criminal defence lawyers ensure that your voice is heard in the courtroom.
Price of a great criminal defence lawyer?
The costs and fees of hiring a criminal defence lawyer will vary greatly based on the matter at hand. Our policy at Dribbin & Brown is, for Magistrates’ Court matters, to quote one fee for services rendered whenever we are able to do so. We want our clients to know exactly what their representation will cost from the beginning. For matters in the County and Supreme Courts that are more involved, we will do our best to clearly explain our fees at the onset.
