Kern County Criminal Defense Lawyers
Thinking About Pleading Guilty? Think Again.
Local courts have seen an increase in the number of cases being filed as overzealous prosecutors try to satisfy a public thirst for convictions.
While some consequences of a conviction are well known (jail time, probation, court fines, drug testing, and classes), consider how a conviction could impact your life:
- Could it affect your job or future employment opportunities?
- How will family and friends react?
- Would it affect your immigration status?
- Could you handle a jail or prison sentence?
Thorough preparation can be the difference between a conviction and an acquittal.
Don’t gamble with your freedom
Don’t wait until your court date to start thinking about your case. Hiring an attorney at an early stage can help preserve evidence and prevent charges from being filed.
- Stay out of jail. Many of our clients NEVER have to go to jail. Even in the most difficult cases, we can negotiate work release or home detention so you can get on with your life without having to miss work or family obligations.
- Stay out of court. In some cases, your case can be handled in the privacy of our office or over the phone. You will not have to miss work or undergo the stress and anxiety of appearing in court.
- Have charges dismissed or reduced. Our attorneys research and investigate all matters thoroughly and pursue every defense in order to get your charges dismissed or reduced to get the best deal possible.
- Clean your record. It's no fun having a conviction on your record where employers and others can see it. These days, anyone can do a quick search and find your conviction. In some cases, we can have the charges reduced or expunged from your record.
