Criminal attorneys specifically handle criminal law. Sometimes criminal law goes hand in hand with other types of law, such as family law (injunctions), and personal injury, so criminal attorneys can be well-versed in more than one area of law. Some criminal attorneys take only certain types of criminal cases. When looking for a criminal attorney, be sure to ask what type of cases the office takes and how many of each type of case the firm has tried.
Criminal attorneys will defend you against any criminal charges. If you have been arrested or charged with an offense, a good defense attorney will work to make sure that any legal difficulties you are in don’t hinder you in the future. Some convictions make it impossible for you to be hired at many businesses, or make you ineligible for other activities or benefits, so the criminal attorney works on your behalf to make sure that any criminal charges don’t turn into convictions on your record.
