Pleading Guilty Is Not Your Best Option!!Most people, when charged with a criminal offense in the state of Missouri, do nothing more than plead guilty to the charge. There are a variety of reasons for why this happens: 1) the individual lacks sufficient funds to hire a lawyer; 2) the individual doesn’t believe that such a charge is “any big deal”; 3) the individual is led to believe by the court that pleading guilty is the best alternative.
None of these reasons are good enough to plead guilty! To begin with, our firm makes sure to keep our fees as low as possible (because we want everyone to have a chance at legal representation). So please do give us a call so that we explain how the whole process works (while answering all your questions, and describing your full range of options).
But if you are under the impression that pleading guilty is “no big deal,” then please read the following carefully: a plea of guilty will allow the state of Missouri to put the charge on your permanent record as a criminal conviction. This in turn will have a tremendous impact on your future prospects (such as employment, housing, and student loans). Why? Because most employers, landlords, and business entities run criminal background checks on all potential applicants. And if your record is unclean, then you will likely be screened out as a candidate.
