Trusting Your Lawyer


Building a relationship of trust with your attorney is crucial, especially in a criminal case where your freedom is at stake. Attorneys do most of the talking, but do not be afraid to ask questions. Once a connection is established, it will be easier to talk about sensitive, personal matters which can help your attorney better represent you and protect your rights. And remember, it’s all confidential. Whether used at trial or plea negotiations, defense counsel must be prepared for all the facts – the good, the bad, and the worse. It will not work out well for you if your attorney hears a fact for the first time while you are testifying at trial.
