What should you do if charged with a crime in Olivette MO? You should give us a call right away. Why? Because doing so will greatly increase your chances of receiving a favorable outcome on your case. How so? Because the vast majority of people who represent themselves (without a lawyer) end up pleading guilty to the charge.
Pleading Guilty Is Not Your Best Option!!And if you plead guilty to the charge, then it will become a part of your permanent record (as a criminal conviction). This in turn will lead to difficult problems in the future. Like what? To begin with, most employers run criminal background checks on potential employees. If you have plead guilty to a misdemeanor charge in Olivette MO in the past, it will show up, and you will likely be screened out as a candidate.
The same fundamental idea would be true in regards to renting an apartment, taking out a business loan, or applying for student financial aid. But it does not have to turn out this way!! There is a much better path to take!
Our goal would be to make sure that this charge does not ruin your life (or in any way hamper your progress towards achieving your future plans). One way in which this could be done is by working out a deal with the local prosecutor to get the charge reduced to something minor (like “littering,” which will not show up on your record at all). And in some cases, we can get the charges thrown out altogether (especially if your Constitutional rights were violated in some way during the police officer’s investigation and/or arrest).
So give us a call, and we will get to work on your case right away!!
