Choosing the right attorney for the defense of felony charges

On Behalf of | Aug 12, 2015 | Felonies, Other Crimes

Being charged and convicted of a felony could change your life forever while also affecting the lives of your loved ones. When you need a criminal defense attorney in the Cleveland area, you might become overwhelmed by the large array of law firms from which to choose. You need an attorney fast, but instead of choosing the first lawyer you come across, it may benefit you to consider a few important factors before making a decision.

The Goldberg Law Firm believes there is a right attorney for every legal situation, especially when it comes to felonies. Here are some of our time-tested tips for selecting the attorney that is right for you:

— Look for an attorney or firm with experience defending charges similar to yours.– Make sure the attorney is familiar with federal laws if pertinent to your case.– Ask the attorney questions about his or her background and record of accomplishments in the courtroom.– Ask questions about any litigation techniques that may help your case.– Meet the attorney in person to gauge how well your personalities mesh.– Look for an attorney who can explain details in an easily understandable way.– Look for an attorney who displays concern, empathy and understanding.

Another tip we offer is that in a good attorney’s opinion, no question or concern is too trivial to address. Lawyers with a genuine desire to help their clients are always prepared to address any issue the client feels is important.
