There’s one skill I think every criminal defense lawyer needs to have & it might surprise you.
They need the ability to educate.
Hear me out-- when it comes to your case and the criminal charges you face, you want to know what ALL of your options are.
And your defense attorney needs to be able to educate you on the good, the bad, and the ugly of those options.
Your attorney should make it a priority that you know what’s available to you and what those options mean for you.
If you don’t know your options and understand them well, how can you make an informed decision about your future?
Make sure you ask your lawyer as many questions as needed until you feel confident in your understanding of your options and your chosen course of action. ___________________________________
