Seeks to Overcome Enforcement Tactics Against You
Once you get involved in the criminal justice system at the level of a violent crime such as robbery or homicide, the system does not want to let you go. Law enforcement officials may overcharge the crime to make sure that the charges stick. Overburdened prosecutors are reading reports of arrest by the police and to them, it looks like you are guilty. Everything that you say will be used against you. You may be under pressure to cooperate for a lesser charge. These are all tactics that do not protect your rights. You need a lawyer who understands law enforcement tactics and knows how to overcome them with thorough investigation and a strong defense.
