What Do Criminal Defense Lawyers Do?

Defense lawyers do a lot more than just argue your case in court. When you hire McCormack & McCormack, our team will handle all of the following on your behalf:

• Speaking to you to get your side of the story
• Investigating the situation on your behalf by interviewing other witnesses, and examining evidence
• Investigating any misconduct or improper process by law enforcement
• Examining the case against you and filing any complaints with the court on your behalf
• Keeping you informed about what’s happening in your case and what your legal options are
• Participating in the jury selection process to ensure you have an unbiased jury that will provide a fair ruling in your case
• Bargaining with the prosecution to obtain a plea bargain if that’s what is best for you
• Representing you in court if and when your case goes to trial
• Working to have your sentence reduced if you are convicted of the charges against you

If you are facing criminal charges, especially if you are being held in jail when these charges are brought against you, it can be difficult to work through the defense process on your own.
