Both the direct and indirect costs associated with a criminal conviction can add up over time. For this reason, many people consider hiring an attorney to defend them against their criminal charges to be an investment in their future. The consequences of a conviction extend far beyond the fees and penalties associated with a sentence—just having a criminal record can make things like applying for jobs more difficult, having a significant impact on your back account.
Attorney fees can vary from firm to firm. While there are some offices that charge lower rates, they often make up for this by taking on a large volume of cases; making it almost impossible to provide personalized support. The attorney may even encourage you to take a plea deal (that is, pleading guilty to your criminal charge in exchange for a slightly reduced sentence). The end result? You are out the attorney fees and still walk away with a criminal record.
Legal fees can also differ on a case-by-case basis. For example, do you have prior criminal convictions on your record? Were you charged with an aggravated offense? In these cases, your attorney may have to do some more preparation to effectively defend your case.
