Babkes & Associates Offers Advice on the Importance of Retaining an Attorney in All Misdemeanor and Felony Cases

Plantation, FL, December 17, 2015 (Newswire.com) - Babkes & Associates advises on the importance of retaining legal representation in all criminal matters including both misdemeanor and felony cases.

Many people charged with a misdemeanor or felony tend to believe that hiring a lawyer really is not necessary. Those who opt to waive counsel believe they can clearly lay out the facts surrounding their legal issues for the prosecutor, judge and jury. This is a mistake that can have serious legal ramifications.

"Lawyers routinely are able to obtain a dismissal of criminal charges because they are knowledgeable about what to look for in a given case and what appropriate motions to make."

James Babkes, Partner and Attorney

Lay people do not realize that law consists of complicated rules of evidence procedure and substantive rules and regulations. In fact, a person representing themselves is bound by the same legal requirements that apply to lawyers. The only difference is that lay people do not possess the knowledge, training and experience to be able to confidently negotiate the legal maze they may be in.

“If you are facing allegations that you violated criminal laws, it’s in your best interest to obtain a consultation from an experienced attorney,” said James Babkes, Partner and Attorney at Babkes & Associates. “Lawyers routinely are able to obtain a dismissal of criminal charges because they are knowledgeable about what to look for in a given case and what appropriate motions to make.”

Short of obtaining a dismissal of charges, attorneys can often negotiate the participation of the defendant in one of several programs where the end result will be a dismissal.
