If you’re in trouble with the law in Brooklyn, it is imperative that you spend the time to find the best criminal defense attorney.

Picking the right attorney can mean the difference between a permanent criminal conviction versus a clean record.  When looking for an attorney, you want someone who understands the crime you are accused of and has the expertise and passion to fight for you.  You also want an attorney who is confident in their abilities and knows their way around a Brooklyn courtroom.

When thinking about retaining an attorney, some will consider waiting for a public defender to take their case.  There are positives and negatives to having a public defender as your attorney. Obviously, a public defender is completely free.  In addition, the hiring of an expert or investigator through a public defender is also free.

But there are some negatives.  Some public defenders, as in any field, are overworked with large caseloads.  Further, a public defender is not assigned to your case until you are actually arrested and brought before a judge.  In contrast, a private attorney, if hired before your arrest, can immediately begin investigating your case, interview witnesses, pull videotape evidence … all in an effort to immediately begin the process of defending you.
