Criminal Defense Lawyers and DUI Attorneys in Peoria Arizona
If you have been charged with a crime in Peoria, AZ, or anywhere else in the United States, the U.S. Constitution guarantees you certain rights that protect you from being treated unfairly. These constitutional rights include:
- The right to an attorney
- The right not to incriminate yourself
- The right to a speedy and public trial
- The right to an appeal
In addition to making sure your rights are protected, a skilled attorney will also be able to develop a strong defense for the charges you face which may result in the dismissal or reduction of charges or even an acquittal. Contacting an attorney as soon as you are arrested or suspect you may be arrested is extremely important. Having a criminal defense lawyer by your side may help you avoid mistakes that could negatively impact your case. Even minor statements in person or on social media can and will be used against you by law enforcement.
Having an attorney as early as possible in the process will help to ensure your constitutional rights are protected. Call Peoria attorney Thomas Hogle at (602) 726-9955 to talk to him about your case or send us a confidential inquiry on our contact page.
What Does a Peoria Criminal Defense Lawyer Do?
A criminal defense lawyer fulfills many important roles during the course of a criminal case. He or she is responsible for defending a person who is charged with a crime. He or she speaks on the client’s behalf. We play this essential role for our clients charged with crimes in Peoria, Arizona.
A criminal defense lawyer is also responsible for talking about the status of the case and negotiating with the prosecutor regarding any particular plea bargain. A criminal defense lawyer may be able to help secure a favorable deal for the defendant that results in a reduction of charges or the possible punishment.
If a plea bargain is not appropriate in your specific case, we will take the case to trial. In a trial, a judge and jury will hear the prosecution's side of the case (district attorney and law enforcement) and the defense (you and your criminal defense lawyer). After weighing the evidence and hearing arguments, the jury will decide whether you are guilty or not guilty of the charges made against you.
If you were arrested in Peoria, your trial will take place in the Peoria Municipal Court on 250 E 1st Ave, Peoria, AZ 85210 or the Maricopa County Superior Court at 201 W. Jefferson Street Phoenix, AZ 85003
