How Criminal Defense Works in the Court of Law
Being charged with a criminal offense does not have to feel like you’ve been dealt an impossible hand. It is possible to build a defense and retaliate against the charges. It is your right to use your voice and to use the defense mechanisms that a criminal lawyer can proudly provide. As such, no defendant should automatically plead guilty in response to their charges. In criminal prosecutions under state or federal law, a defendant has the right to propose a defense with the help of a criminal lawyer in an attempt to avoid being held liable for the offense that he or she may have been accused of committing. There are many ways in which our criminal lawyer can build a successful defense against criminal allegations, the most common include the following:
Factual innocence
Violation of constitutional rights
Mental disease
Alibi defense
Self-defense (assault, battery, murder)
Defense-of-others
Defense-of-property
Involuntary intoxication
Duress or coercion
Statute of limitations
Insufficient evidence
These defenses are amongst the many that we can use in order to prove that your actions were based on reason and not purely criminal. By bringing about criminal defense with our expertise and skills, we can help keep the criminal justice system balanced, just, and righteous. Since people can be wrongfully accused, our criminal lawyer fights to make sure that you won’t have to face imprisonment or worse punishment sentencing.
