Once you are out of jail awaiting trial, you have certain choices: you can stick with the lawyer you originally called or the public defender that was assigned to you, or you can pick a new lawyer. For a specific crime, it is a good idea to hire a lawyer that specializes in that area.
Try to find a lawyer via recommendations from friends or family or other people who may have used the lawyer in the past.
If someone has had a good experience with a lawyer themselves, they will be only too happy to put you in touch with them. You need to contact the state bar and check if the lawyer is in good standing, or if they have any complaints lodged against them.
If you have been arrested, you have certain rights, one of these being the right to request a lawyer. Remember that you may be limited to the amount of phone calls you can make, so it is a good idea to have a friend or relative locate a lawyer for you. You may be thinking ‘why do I need a lawyer?’ While you are not required to have one, a criminal defense lawyer can advise you of your rights, protect your interests and guide you through the complicated legal system that you are now faced with. The sooner you get a lawyer involved with your case, the better.
One thing is for sure – do not be tempted to represent yourself, as it will not end well. If you choose to represent yourself, or be a ‘pro se litigant’, you are held to the same standards as a professional lawyer. If you don’t follow the rules and regulations of the court, you will be subject to litigation sanctions. Often, you will get so tied up in procedural rules, that you won’t be able to concentrate on your actual case. Only an experienced lawyer will have the depth of knowledge required to put on a great defense.
