FAQ - Is Criminal Defense Representation Affordable?

Is Representation
Affordable?

Yes; however, the better question is: can you
afford not to have representation. Even in the
"simple" cases, clients are typically better
served by having counsel to speak for them.
This is true for a variety of reasons. First, the
lawyer serves as an intermediary who can give
added credibility to the defendant as his (or
her) supporter.

Plus, even the "simplest" case can get complex.
Think of the process by which a woman gives
birth. A doctor does not need to be present for
every birth; however, when a complication
does arises, expert advice becomes invaluable.

Further, we have seen too many clients come
to us after having represented themselves only
to wish they had retained counsel upfront. We
are always willing to help, but we prefer to
assist when it will be most helpful: at the
beginning of your process through the criminal
