If you are looking for legal representation on your Bridgeton MO criminal matter, then you have come to the right place!! Our team will make a close examination of the pertinent facts surrounding your case, and come up with the best defense strategy available.
Very often, our efforts will result in a reduction of the charges down to some lesser offense (like “littering,” which does not show up on your record). And sometimes, we can get the charge thrown out altogether (this can happen if the police officer who issued the citation in some way violated your Constitutional rights).
Pleading Guilty Is Not Your Best Option!!The alternative to hiring a Bridgeton MO criminal defense attorney is that you defend yourself. But this option usually results in a simple guilty plea. The reason why is because the judge will very often make it seem as if that is your best and/or only option available. And the judge might even sweeten the deal by saying that if you plead guilty, he won’t hit you with any jail time. At this point, many people believe that they have struck gold! And they plead guilty as a result.
But making this choice has some long term consequences that the judge will not tell you about. For instance, a guilty plea will allow the state to put the charge on your permanent record. So when you apply for a job in the future, your potential employer will see it, and you could easily be screened out as a candidate.
Fortunately, it does not have to turn out this way!! All you need to do is give us a call!
