Fishers Criminal Defense Attorney

What Should I Say To The Police?

If you are stopped by the police or placed under arrest, your best option is to say nothing under your right to remain silent. Under the United States Constitution, you have a right to have a lawyer present. It is important to remember that anything you say can be used against you in your case.

Will My Criminal Case Go To Trial?

While every case is different, many criminal cases are settled through plea bargains before trial. I will explain all your options, negotiate with the prosecutor and advise you on the risks and benefits of accepting a plea deal or going to trial.

What Happens If I Am Sentenced To Probation?

Probation is a form of criminal sentence that allows you to serve your time outside of jail. When you are on probation, you will be assigned a probation officer and given the terms of your probation. Typically, you will not be allowed to use drugs or alcohol, you must complete counseling or classes and community service. If you violate your probation, you could spend time behind bars.
