The consequences of a formal conviction can ruin your life and if you’ve been charged with a serious crime, you should seek representation from a qualified defense attorney. Charges alone can result in motions to revoke probation and affect you emotionally and economically.
A lawyer who knows the legal system can analyze the case against you and potentially find faults in the prosecution’s case whether evidence was gathered incorrectly or an officer did not have probable cause to stop your vehicle. They can also advise you on any plea deals that may be offered to you.
