When you choose a criminal defense lawyer–choose a lawyer that’s fought tough cases against tough lawyers in anĀ adversarialĀ setting. Prosecutors will always want to know: does the criminal defendant’s attorney have trial experience? How much experience? If your criminal defense lawyer does not have solid courtroom experience, prosecutors can exploit your lawyer’s inexperience.
