A Big Difference
There is a big difference between having a
private attorney representing you and having a
public defender representing you. If you are
eligible for a public defender, you will most
likely be assigned one the attorney will be
someone who is already working on several
different cases, and with limited resources. This
will all impact your case (in a negative way).

Acting Immediately
If you hire the right criminal defense attorney
and if you do it as soon as you can, he or she
will be able to jump right in and file an initial
plea. This will slow down your case, and reduce
the chances of facing a formal criminal charge.
