What Makes A Good Criminal Defense Lawyer?

A good criminal defense attorney is committed, concerned and available. A good attorney has a game plan and is able to explain it to the client. A good attorney is knowledgeable about judges, prosecutors, the law and the system in general.

The best attorney-client relationship is a partnership built on trust and communication. If you do not trust your lawyer, you will not be able to communicate in an open and honest manner.

Trust also is the cornerstone to understanding the recommendations made to you, which is why we strive to keep our clients informed about all developments in their cases.

At Sheppard, White, Kachergus, & DeMaggio, P.A., we take a personal, one-on-one approach with our clients. When you come to our office, you can expect experienced, forthright counsel that focuses on results.
