Do not represent yourself and risk a permanent black mark on your record. It has long been stated that “he who represents himself has a fool for a client.” (Lincoln). Don’t be a fool—get competent legal representation to defend your rights and to help you weed through the criminal justice and court system. It is an unfortunate reality that we all make mistakes, and sometimes those errors have criminal implications.
Be sure you understand all of the legal ramifications of the charges against you and get counsel who can steer you through the criminal process and help you get the best results with the least imposing and permanent consequences.
The Criminal defense lawyers at Adams Legal Group, PLLC, are located in downtown Morgantown and provide criminal legal services to the greater Morgantown WV community in all types of misdemeanor and felony criminal matters, as well as in Federal criminal cases in the United States District Court for the Northern District of West Virginia.
Our attorneys also serve Marion, Preston, Harrison and Taylor Counties in criminal defense cases and frequently travel to Kingwood, Fairmont, Clarksburg, Philippi, Elkins, Buckhannon, and Grafton to represent clients in court. If you have been arrested, charged, indicted or arraigned on criminal charges for any criminal offense in Monongalia, Marion, Preston, Harrison, Barbour, Randolph, Upshur, or Taylor County, it is imperative that you retain competent criminal legal counsel early in the process to preserve and protect your rights.
Without counsel to steer you through the process, you could end up at a serious disadvantage in negotiating a plea deal with the prosecutor or in preparing your defense for trial. Worse yet, if your matter goes to trial and you do not have a competent, experienced trial lawyer defending your rights and investigating the State’s case against you, this lack of preparation can seriously hamper your ability to present your best defense.
Additionally, once at trial, the manner of presentation of evidence and testimony is key to your success. Moreover, knowing the law – the criminal charges against you, the applicable defenses, sentences and possible alternative sentencing possibilities, such as diversion programs, deferral options, probation or home confinement are key to both presenting your defense and negotiating a plea. Call us today and get an aggressive and knowledgeable criminal defense advocate on your side – (304) 381-2166.
