Have You Been Arrested in Lexington? Here Is What to Do.
There are two important steps to take after an arrest. First, remain calm and comply with law enforcement’s requests. Doing this can prevent a situation from escalating. However, you should exercise your right to remain silent. Refrain from speaking with any officers or the prosecution team unless you have consulted an attorney. To this point, seek the help of a defense lawyer as soon as possible. They can provide you with important direction at every step of the criminal process.
Six Advantages of Hiring a Defense Lawyer
During a criminal investigation or after an arrest, it is easy to feel confused about what to do and where to turn for help. One thing should be clear in these moments: hiring a defense attorney is advantageous.
Here is why:
- Legal Experience and Knowledge: Navigating a criminal case is difficult, especially for someone without experience. An attorney’s legal know-how can be a lifeline in crucial moments.
- Rights Protection: It is not uncommon for law enforcement, the prosecution, and others to violate a defendant’s rights. However, many might not know their rights or understand what constitutes a violation. A lawyer can identify and address discrepancies.
- Negotiation Skill: It is possible to settle a case before trial. A qualified lawyer can advocate for lesser charges and an optimal plea deal during negotiations.
- Investigation and Evidence Gathering: A savvy attorney can gather ample evidence, interview witnesses, consult pertinent experts, and challenge the prosecution’s arguments with a well-crafted defense.
- Support During a Difficult Time: Facing charges and potential penalties is stressful. An attorney can help ease the process by offering insights, answering questions, and addressing concerns.
- Sentencing Advocacy: After a conviction, a defense attorney’s job is not done. They can still advocate for a favorable sentence, appeal a decision, or work to expunge the conviction later on.
