Often people ask, what can I do now. When anyone faces criminal charges, it is your lawyer that will handle the legal work in the case. There is generally very little that we will need you to do to help you prepare the case from a legal perspective. This is our job.

1. Helps you through the stress of handling the criminal charges;
2. Generally help you in your life
3. Will be very important if you want to work out a plea agreement or are convicted after trial.
