Let us help you with your Velda Village Hills MO criminal charge!! We will take a close look at all the pertinent facts of your case and determine the best strategy to defend your rights!
But if you are thinking about representing yourself, there are a few things you should know. While it may seem like the cheapest route to take, serving as your own lawyer normally results in one thing: pleading guilty to the charge.
Pleading Guilty Is Not Your Best Option!!Why is this a bad thing? Because even if the judge does not sentence you to any jail time, a guilty plea will put the charge on your permanent driving record. Once this happens, it will stay there forever. This means that if a person performs a background check on you, it will show up plain as day. So if you were to apply for a job, or rent an apartment, or try for governmental benefits, this criminal conviction will stick out like a sore thumb!!
But we would rather that you avoid all of those negative outcomes! Instead, we will take a close look at the facts of your case, figure out the best defense strategy, and put in the best possible position moving forward! Our efforts will typically result in either a dismissal of the charges (especially if your rights were violated in some way), or in a reduction of the charges to a lesser offense!!
