If
you have been or think that you will be charged with a
crime, it is imperative that you seek legal advice immediately.
The sooner you have competent legal counsel, the
better able that attorney will be to protect your rights.
In a DUII case, for example, you must request a hearing
with DMV to contest your license suspension within 10 days
of your citation or you forever lose that right.
You have important rights, and yet you may not know what those rights are. You may have been given information from others, yet that information may not be reliable.
. . .
If you are under investigation, have been arrested, or are being prosecuted in a criminal matter, you need to know your rights and have an aggressive criminal defense attorney protecting those rights.
Cases
arising out of false charges can be dismissed prior
to the District Attorney filing or indicting the case, but
you need an experienced and aggressive advocate to get
through to the DA and explain your case. If
you are charged, a number of legal avenues exist prior to
getting to trial, including civil compromises and outright
dismissals, but again, you need an attorney who knows the
criminal legal system to increase your odds of something
like this happening.
