Do you really need a Criminal Defense Attorney if you are completely innocent of criminal charges?
This is a mistake most people often make when facing criminal charges. If you are innocent of these crimes then why would you need the best criminal attorneys in Riverside CA? The system is designed to be adversarial. This means the District Attorney prosecutor represents the government and not you. They have no obligation to tell you if there are holes in the case or weaknesses in the evidence of the crimes. If the police violated your rights or made mistakes when investigating crimes then the DA won’t tell you that a motion to suppress evidence or even to dismiss is appropriate. The Judge can’t take sides so they can’t tell you what to do either. The only person in the criminal law system who is on your side is your defense attorney. So the answer is YES you do need a lawyer from our firm regardless if you truly committed a crime. For most misdemeanors and crimes you never even have to go to the city court-house if you retain our a criminal defense lawyer from our office.

You will be ordered to appear in Superior Court and waste many hours away from work and family defending crimes with poor criminal defense strategies.

They work for the government just like the District Attorney prosecutor. Mark Cantrell doesn’t have that pressure and so we can do whatever is best for you when defending you against crimes. The goal of our law firm is to get the case dismissed or reduced. No one can predict the future but we have a lot of criminal defense law success stories and just a few of them are on our web site.
