Do you Really need a Criminal Lawyer?

Our firm receives numerous calls from potential clients every day seeking advice on how to handle a legal situation. On many occasions, the potential clients retain our services and become actual clients. Some of the callers seek counsel elsewhere because they do not like our assessment of their legal situation. Unfortunately, there is a small percentage of callers who contact our firm with the specific purpose of obtaining information from a lawyer in an effort to handle their own legal matter without a lawyer.

These callers are simply unwilling to listen to any advice or follow the direction of any lawyer and simply think they can handle their legal matter alone. This is not advisable. Legal matters are inherently complex. Whether you are facing a preliminary hearing, an interview with police or are the target of a federal grand jury investigation, you need an experienced Criminal Defense Lawyer to explain all of the potential penalties, outcomes and fines that may accompany these situations.

Do yourself a favor: When faced with a potential criminal matter, contact a Criminal Lawyer with the experience to advise you of your options and listen to the advice given.

Do you Really Need a Lawyer for a Pittsburgh Traffic Offense?

Let's face it: Traffic Tickets are a pain. The offenses seem to pop up at the most inopportune time forcing you spend time out of your trip with the police officer, stressing over the fines and costs of the ticket before taking a day off from work to deal with the traffic ticket in Court. It is no wonder why most people charged with a traffic offense simply opt to plead guilty and send in the citation to move on with their lives: This is a huge mistake.

 

Although traffic offenses are seemingly harmless when compared to a Casino Crime, Federal Crime or DUI, the long lasting impact of pleading guilty will hit you when you least expect it. By simply pleading guilty to driving without a license or careless driving can possibly lead to jail time and/or maximum fines. Entering a plea of guilty to driving without a license due to a DUI suspension can lead to a 90 day jail sentence and additional license suspensions from Pennsylvania Department of Transportation.

 

The next time you or a loved on receive a traffic ticket, contact our law firm for a free consultation. We will review the paperwork, citations and advise you of your options free of charge.

Charged with Conspiracy in Pennsylvania

Conspiracy is a vague but far reaching crime. Many view a conspiracy crime as actively planning a bank robbery or driving a get away car after a robbery. In most cases, these examples are accurate. However, what most citizens do not realize is that conspiracy can be charged in instances where the person is not even present at the scene of the crime but agreed to commit the crime at an earlier point and made acts towards the completion of the crime even if not present at the scene of the actual crime. For example: Arranging drug transactions by phone, paying another person to commit an assault or assisting a person in committing a burglary by luring the home owners away to another location under false pretenses.

 

The important distinction that must be made in every conspiracy case is the identification of an agreement, whether actual or implied by actions. Often, police officers and detectives will threaten to charge everyone present at the scene of a crime with conspiracy in an attempt to scare someone into testifying against another. However, Pennsylvania law is clear: Presence at the scene of a crime, standing alone, is not evidence of conspiracy.

 

Thus, if you or anyone you know has been charged with or is threatening to be charged with conspiracy, stand firm on your rights: Remain silent and contact Attorney Frank Walker for a free case review.
