Only $450 - Crestwood MO Misdemeanor Criminal Defense

Have you been cited for trespassing, or marijuana possession, or stealing in Crestwood MO? Do you understand the consequences of pleading guilty for such an offense? Do you know about the long term effects of pleading guilty?

Because if you are unaware of the answers to these questions, then you really should give us a call!! Many people think that they can simply represent themselves on a criminal matter. And that is certainly your right (the law does not require that you get an attorney to help you out).

But here is how that idea is going to play out: you go to court by yourself; the judge calls you up to the podium, and reads off the charges; the judge will then ask how you wish to plead (guilty or not guilty); you will start to give your version of the events and/or facts; the judge will cut you off, and ask you how you wish to plead; you will likely persist in making an argument (because you are under the impression that that is your chance to explain things); the judge will cut you off again, and ask if you want to set the matter for a trial; you will then say that you’re not an attorney; and the judge will state, “Then you should go hire one!”

When we are hired, the first we take a close look at is whether or not we can get the charges dropped (this might be possible if there were an Constitutional violations of your rights). Or we could work out a deal with the prosecutor (to try and get the charges reduced to a lesser offense). And in some cases we can get an SIS, which suspends the imposition of any charge (and if you stay out of trouble during the probationary period, the charges drop off as if they never existed).

Either way, you should get in touch with us as soon as possible! We will get started on your case immediately!!
