What to Ask your Michigan Criminal Defense Lawyer

What experience do you have in criminal defense?

A large portion of your attorney's practice should be devoted to criminal defense. When your future and reputation are on the line, you want an attorney who really understands the criminal justice system, not someone who just dabbles in it. Additionally, you want to find out if the attorney has specific experience representing cases like yours.

What kind of resources do you have access to?

When you are facing criminal charges, it may be a good idea to have an attorney who has access to the resources you may need for a solid defense. Your attorney should be able to conduct his or her own investigation of the crime scene, be able to provide their own analysis of the evidence and have a solid support staff.

Can you provide me with references from former clients and/or other lawyers or judges?

Attorneys should have references readily available for you to contact. When you contact an attorney's reference, be sure to ask them about the things they liked and disliked about the attorney so that you can get a better feel of how an attorney operates.

What are your credentials?

Ask the attorney about where he or she went to law school. Also, find out if he or she has won any awards or has any special titles that show expertise in the field of criminal law. You can also ask if he or she belongs to any professional organizations, like the National Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers, the National Legal Aid and Defenders Association, the Association of Federal Defense Attorneys, the Michigan Trial Lawyers Association, or the Criminal Defense Attorneys of Michigan.

What can I expect from you?

Your attorney should be able to give you realistic expectations when it comes to your case. An attorney cannot promise you a positive result -- in fact, it is illegal for him or her to do so. A criminal defense lawyer in Michigan should also tell you how much communication you can expect from him or her and exactly what he or she will do for you in your criminal defense.

How do you expect to be paid?

Criminal defense lawyers may charge a flat rate or an hourly rate for their services. How an attorney charges each case is largely dependent on the complexity of the case and the number of hours an attorney projects having to work on the case. Make sure you understand exactly how and when an attorney expects to be paid so that there are no surprises along the way.
