What Are the Advantages of Hiring a Former Prosecutor?

When you or a loved one is charged with a crime, it is very important to make the best choice possible when choosing a criminal defense attorney to represent you. There are a lot of choices to make and the process can be overwhelming.

If you are in need of an effective criminal defense attorney, here are some questions you need to ask:

• What is the lawyer’s experience?
• How many years have they been practicing?
• Do they only practice criminal law?

If you choose a lawyer who practices multiple areas of law, they are probably not going to have the experience and specialization in criminal law that is crucial to your defense. You want a lawyer who specializes and practices criminal law exclusively. West Coast Defense has more than 25 years of experience. Our lead attorney is a former Los Angeles County Prosecutors who understands the law from the prosecution to the defense side.

Has Your Attorney Ever Tried a Case?

Make sure your lawyer can walk into that courtroom, stand in front of 12 jurors and argue your case. A lot of lawyers don’t have extensive trial experience. If they don’t, they shouldn’t be representing you. We have numerous jury trials under our belt. 26 homicide trials alone.
