“A Lawyer Has a Duty
to Give His Client the
Best Possible Advice
without Regard for
His Own Financial
Circumstances”
Says John Grisham,
An American Bestselling Writer And
Attorney

CRIMINAL DEFENSE
ATTORNEYS
– Who Are They?
A criminal defense
attorney is a lawyer
specializing in the defense
of individuals and
companies charged with
criminal activity.
www.adampeerlaw.com
CRIMINAL DEFENSE
LAWYERS
– What They Do?
The attorney will discuss the specifics
of the case with the client to get
information to help build a defense to
the charge(s). The criminal defense
lawyer will use this information in the
various motions and pleadings, he or
she will have to draft on the client’s
behalf, during plea negotiations, and
during the trial.
Some of the tasks that criminal
defense lawyers routinely perform are:
www.adampeerlaw.com
Task #1 - Provide an objective
perspective of the client’s situation
and explain to the client what is likely
to happen, which is vital for the client,
especially in making a decision about
how to respond to any “plea bargain” a
prosecutor may offer.
Task #2 - Negotiates with a prosecutor
on behalf of the client in an attempt to
reduce the charges or lessen the
punishment recommended by the
prosecutor at sentencing.
www.adampeerlaw.com
Task #3 - Suggest sentencing,
treatment, and rehabilitation programs
tailored to the client's specific needs,
which may help the client avoid future
clashes.
Task #4 - Interview witnesses,
formulate cross examination questions
and create defense strategies.
www.adampeerlaw.com
DO I NEED A
CRIMINAL JUSTICE
LAWYER?
If you are facing criminal
charges, a criminal defense
attorney can help represent
you in court. Or, if you have
been the victim of a crime, a
criminal prosecutor can help
you through the process.
