In
Trouble With the Law?
| Most people never imagine that
they will be arrested and charged with a crime and assume that anyone
who is arrested must be a criminal. The truth is that anyone can be
arrested. A mistaken identification, a misunderstanding or dispute with
the police or another party, even simply being in the wrong place at the
wrong time can lead to being taken into custody by the police and
charged with an offense. Being arrested can be one of the scariest
moments in anyone's life. Suddenly your liberty is taken away and you
may face the prospect of months or years of incarceration. The whole
criminal adjudication process is both intimidating and confusing.
Dealing with the power of the State to arrest
and prosecute you isn't something that anyone should try to deal with on
their own. More important than any other factor, who you retain as a
lawyer to defend you can determine how likely you are to have your case
fairly and completely adjudicated. Fortunately, in the United States
and particularly in New York State, the law provides you with a broad
range of rights and protections that are designed to assure that the
State does not abuse its tremendous police powers. Asserting and
protecting all of these rights is the job of your attorney (for more
information on your rights
click here).
Choosing an attorney who will aggressively assert your rights, listen to
you and make sure that all the facts associated with the case are
investigated is critical to minimizing the risk you will be convicted of
an offense.
Glenn Magnell is available to provide
energetic, knowledgeable and professional legal representation regarding
arrests or tickets related to speeding,
DWI, DWAI,
