5 Tips for Choosing your Criminal Defense Team


No one wants to be in the position, but let us admit, life happens. When you are facing a situation when it is necessary to hire a criminal defense team you need to ensure that you are hiring the best possible team to defend you in court. The Law Office of Jennifer A. Curry wants nothing more than for you to be comfortable and confident in your case when going into court. There are 5 main tips that we have to offer you in order to hire the best criminal defense team to represent you in the court of law. 

Tip 1: We Specialize in Criminal Law

When you are facing criminal charges, it is important to hire a lawyer that specializes in criminal law. Hiring a family lawyer for your criminal case is like hiring a doctor that specializes in shoulders to look at your broken foot! Just like in the medical field, lawyers have different specialties and concentrations in their practice. When you hire a team that specializes in criminal law, you are doing yourself a big favor in your case.

Due to our long-time experience specializing in criminal defense, the law office of Jennifer A. Curry will help you to find the best solution to any legal issue with top criminal defense attorney representation in Georgia and Federal. 

Tip 2: Transparent Training and Experience

A good criminal defense team is going to be transparent in where they have worked and received their education. If you are working with a criminal defense lawyer that is a bit lofty on where they have come from, this should serve as a red flag! A good lawyer will let their clients know what they specialize in and how they got to where they are! Jennifer A. Curry is extremely transparent in her practice.

Tip 3: Prioritize Communication with Your Criminal Defense Lawyer

Do not be lax on what you expect from your criminal defense attorney. If you are hiring someone to defend you in the court of law, they should provide quick, thorough communication with you. In the court of law, time is more precious than ever. If you have trouble even getting in contact with your criminal defense attorney, it may be time to rethink your choice.

Tip 4: Confidence in the Courtroom is Necessary

You want a criminal defense attorney that will run your situation. Not let your situation run you. When choosing a criminal defense attorney, it is important to establish whether or not they are confident in the courtroom or not. A few indicators of this can be how much experience they have with the charges you are facing and whether or not they portray themselves as someone to take charge or to sit back and watch.

Tip 5: Trust the First Impression

When trying to find candidates to represent your criminal charges, it is important to listen to your gut and first impressions of the criminal defense attorney you are about to hire. Did they respond quickly to your consultation inquiry? Did you get along with them during your consultation? Have you found reputable sources for their previous practices? Are they specialized in your criminal charge? Once your first impression has been made, listen to that. Your gut, generally, never lies!
