Criminal Law

By: Wampler and Passanise
 

Have you recently been charged with a criminal offense in the state of
Missouri? Were you involved in DWI (Driving While Intoxicated),
theft/larceny, domestic violence, or drug possession? Have you been accused
of robbery, rape, burglary, or arson? If so, you need an attorney in
Missouri who you can trust with your case.

The punishment for these crimes, along with other criminal acts, can range
from imposition of fines and community service to probation and life
imprisonment. The punishment depends on the severity of the crime. Find a
Missouri lawyer who will fight for you in court and ensure that you receive
a fair and just decision.

If you have been charged with an attorney, take advantage of your
constitutional right to remain silent.  DO NOT speak to the police, family
or friends about your case until you have consulted with a Missouri
attorney about your case.

Choosing an attorney is an important decision. Simply because a lawyer
bought a catchy radio commercial does not mean they are a good attorney.
You need someone with experience in this area of law and someone who is
dedicated to making sure your case is handled correctly. A successful
lawyer will know how to make critical decisions such as whether your case
should be trial by a judge or jury.

If you are charged with a criminal act, it is important that you get the
best attorney for your case. When searching for the right lawyer in
Missouri, it is essential that you first find out the facts.  Please
consider asking these questions to ensure that you hire the right attorney:


. How successful have your previous criminal cases been?
. Are you willing to fight for my case in court?
. How many criminal cases do you try on average per year?
. Are you involved in professional associations such as the Missouri
Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers (MACDL)?
. How much time are you willing to devote to my case?
. Will you personally be available to discuss my case when I need to?

Bear in mind, the answers to these questions could make all the difference
when choosing a lawyer. A good lawyer should be willing to go above and
beyond to make certain that your case is managed with the utmost
professionalism, yet will give you the personal attention you need.
