What Are Criminal Law Cases?

Criminal law covers a wide variety of subcategories. If you’re accused of a crime, you need an experienced criminal defense lawyer to work with you to help ensure that you aren’t unfairly treated throughout the process, and that you aren’t convicted of a crime that you didn’t commit. Some of the most common criminal charges include:

If you or a loved one is accused of a crime, don’t try to tackle the charges alone. Hiring an experienced Phoenix criminal defense attorney is the most effective way to ensure that you will achieve the best possible result in your case.

Who Is At Fault?

Mere criminal accusations or charges don’t necessarily mean that you’re guilty. Oftentimes, police or prosecutors will accuse people of crimes that they didn’t commit. For example, you may be:

  • Set up to take the fall for someone else. Others are responsible for the crime, but they planted evidence that makes it appear that you’re responsible.
  • Unfairly accused. You may have had nothing to do with the crime, but were in the wrong place at the wrong time, leading to serious legal problems and accusations.
  • Accused with inadequate evidence. You may face criminal charges, but sufficient evidence to prove your guilt may not exist—or was not collected properly and/or legally.

Regardless of whether you committed the crime for which you are accused, you need a criminal defense attorney to represent you throughout the process. Your attorney will ensure that the authorities followed proper procedure during your arrest and did not infringe on your rights, and that you understand the legal proceedings as they occur. The best way to protect your rights is to hire an Phoenix criminal defense attorney.

What Penalties Can I Expect?

The nature of the crime, your past criminal history, and a range of other factors will influence the penalties you face. These penalties may include:

  • FinesFines for some offenses may create long-term financial hardships for you and your family.
  • Your criminal record. A criminal record can cause difficulties down the road, including finding future employment and/or housing. As a result, you want to hire a criminal defense lawyer who can help you avoid a criminal record when possible.
  • Community service. If your alleged crime hurt other people, you may end up needing to complete a certain number of community service hours.
  • Probation. If placed on probation, you may lose certain freedoms, including drug and alcohol use, who you’re allowed to associate with, where you’re permitted to travel, and more.
  • Prison time. A prison sentence may place your entire life hold until your release, at which point you may struggle to piece your life back together. In addition, if your criminal record contains your prison sentence, you may find substantial difficulty obtaining future employment.

An experienced criminal defense attorney can help you understand the legal proceedings and the future ramifications that you may face. In many cases, you may incorporate certain conditions into a plea agreement that will provide increased freedom following your conviction or release. Consider both your immediate freedom as well as long-term consequences, and how those may affect your future. Hopefully, you can limit the effect of any consequences that you may encounter after trial, even if the court convicts you or you plead guilty.

How Much Will a Criminal Lawyer Cost Me?

When you or a loved one is accused of a crime, plenty of worries race through your mind. You may feel concerned about how a conviction will restrict your freedom, what expenses you will incur fighting the charges, what fines you will need to pay, and how much work you will need to take off, among other key considerations. You may also worry about how to pay for a lawyer to represent you.

When you contact Grand Canyon Law Group, we will set up a free consultation, during which you can discuss the details of your case and any estimated costs with one of our experienced Phoenix attorneys. In many cases, hiring a qualified criminal defense lawyer may prove far less expensive than the criminal penalties you may otherwise face. Don’t let the fear of affording an attorney keep you from contacting Grand Canyon Law Group.
