How to Choose the Best Criminal Defense Attorney in Arizona
The best criminal defense attorney — for your case is the one whose answers to a few key questions match the facts you're facing.
Do you focus exclusively on criminal defense?
Generalists know a little about a lot. You want a specialist.
How many cases like mine have you handled in this county?
Local prosecutor and judge knowledge is decisive.
How often do you take cases to trial?
Prosecutors offer better deals to lawyers they know will try the case.
Will you personally handle my case?
Avoid bait-and-switch firms where intake meets a senior partner and a brand-new associate gets the file.
What is your fee structure?
Flat fee, phased fee, or hourly — all reasonable. Vague fees aren't.
