Our justice system says that every person is innocent until proven guilty. That's the law. The reality often appears differently to the person charged with a crime. Far more often than not, the court and jury are predisposed to an assumption of guilt simply because police charged the defendant with a crime. In many cases, a person is forced into proving his or her innocence. You get one chance to prove it. There are seldom few second chances to be found not guilty of a crime, and appeals are costly and difficult.
If you are considering whether you even need an attorney, whether you should just take your chances with a fair and just system, or whether it even pays to hire a lawyer, think again.
Regardless of the crime charged, every person should be represented by the best possible legal counsel. Every person working for the justice system gets paid by the same employer. They aren't paid to inform you of the law. The DA's job isn't to seek justice, it is to prosecute you. No person should ever go up against any government alone.
