Providing a Proactive Defense
Every person facing a criminal charge deserves aggressive legal representation through every stage of their case. Even if an arrest has not yet happened, a lawyer could help someone determine which actions will be in their best interest. Once in police custody, a Toledo criminal defense lawyer could fight to ensure that the defendant is afforded every right that is granted to them under the law. This protection continues through the date of arraignment where a lawyer argues for fairer bail conditions.
We work tirelessly during all court sessions across Northwest Ohio, up to and including a final trial. This includes the introduction of evidence that disputes a prosecutor’s claims, filing motions to exclude controversial evidence, and presenting defenses to the jury that may help raise the idea of reasonable doubt in their minds. In summation, a Toledo criminal defense lawyer is prepared to help every step of the way.
