Many defendants wish they had chosen private criminal law firms because they have dedicated their careers to helping defendants get positive results so they can get their lives back on track. They have also spent significant time learning the intricacies of criminal law investigation and litigation within their specific state as well as within the local community and are much more willing to bring a case to trial because of their extensive experience defending a multitude of different misdemeanors and felonies. Moreover, this will further protect your rights, as you will not feel pressured to take an undesirable plea deal instead of working toward a reduced sentence or the elimination of the charges.
