Criminal Procedure

Practicing criminal law either as a defense attorney or prosecutor is significantly different than any other area in this profession. A defense attorney specifically holds such a unique place in our society that many often argue when discussing just about any element pertaining to a profession that is unlike any other on earth. We protect people although we are neither physician nor civil practitioner whose main focus is to protect a person’s things.

Defending Crimes Charged by Government

While most will disagree as to how we are to be viewed in society, there is one group that consistently shares the same perception and that is the client.

When it comes to the actual practice of criminal defense there are very complex issues pertaining to the law itself or the tactical manner in which that law is practiced on behalf of the person you are defending.

Explaining the criminal trial process along with the events leading up to resolution is one of the easiest ways to get a client in a mindset that is conducive to assisting their counsel in preparing an overall defense strategy.

William is an amazing lawyer on the first day he took my case from a felony to a misdemeanor. He always answered my calls and text messages, never a problem. He was always the one in court not sending someone else, unlike my last lawyer. 10/10 would recommend. If I ever have any other problems, he will be the first person I call. Shane B.
