Ventura Criminal Defense Firm
When arrested or charged with a crime, it is vital that you act swiftly to protect your rights and ensure that you have an attorney on your side. You will need guidance and protection as soon as possible when going up against the criminal justice system. While Lady Justice is meant to be impartial when weighing the evidence against you, you may feel overwhelmed by a system that can easily feel like it is against you from the start. You will need an aggressive advocate whose job is to see that you are treated fairly, that your best interests are pursued and protected, and that you have the best possible defense against the state.
At Elizabeth Elwood Law, you can turn to a proven trial lawyer who has handled a wide variety of criminal cases from both sides of the law, as a prosecutor and a defense lawyer. Liz understands the intricate maneuverings of the justice system from the inside out, how the state pursues convictions, and how to counteract their tactics with a solid strategy designed to increase your chances of an optimum outcome. With our experienced defense lawyer on your side, you will be better equipped to secure a potential case dismissal, reduction of charges, or acquittal at trial.
Why You Need a Dedicated Criminal Defense Lawyer
While you will always be guaranteed a public defender if eligible when charged with a crime, these lawyers are commonly overworked and understaffed and have large assignments of defendants. They generally do not have the time or attention to give your case the full consideration it needs. You may have little communication with your public defender as opposed to the responsiveness and care you will get from Liz when you bring your case to her.
Facing the bail process, your arraignment, and other court hearings on your own are not recommended. To get the best possible result, you need an attorney who can give you and your case the support you need at this critical point in your life. Put a true professional on your side who will be committed to fighting for you with quality representation from start to finish.
