How much will it cost to hire your firm to defend me?
The fees we charge in criminal matters depend on a number of factors, some of which are:
- the severity of the crime you are accused of;
- the number of crimes you are accused of;
- whether you have a criminal record;
- whether you are eligible for a pretrial divisionary program;
- whether the case is a state or federal case;
- whether the case will go to trial or will be resolved through some type of pretrial resolution, such as a dismissal because of a violation of your rights or a negotiated plea bargain with the prosecution.
We strive to set a fee that is fair and reasonable and which compensates us for our time and talent. We also need to get enough money up front so that we do not have to worry about whether we are going to get paid for efforts.
We suggest you call us to get a fee quote over the phone. There is no charge for such a phone consultation.
