“a common question i get asked is what's expected of me as a client in other words when i hire a law firm or i hire an attorney what do i as a client need to know honestly the biggest thing you as a client need to do is stay in touch with your attorney or your law firm”
“one of the most difficult things that we as criminal defense attorneys face is having to give information to the court about our clients when we can't get a hold of them if there is nothing else that you do during the course of your relationship with a criminal defense attorney and all you do is stay in contact with them your experience is going to be so much easier because it honestly doesn't matter how many times you screw up how many things go wrong in the case as long as you have good communication with your attorney and they can work with you it's going to be 10 000 times easier to deal with any issues that may come up”
“if you don't then what the attorney is doing is essentially flying blind they're trying to tell the court well i think my client thinks this or feels this but they don't have any actual information”
“now remember our job as criminal defense attorneys is to protect you no matter what that doesn't mean you have to not tell us anything you have to talk to us we're never going to say anything that is counter to your best interest in other words we're never going to do anything at least at right law group we're never going to do anything that will hurt you that will put our interest above yours”
“my number one tip for anyone who hires an attorney even if it's not criminal defense in any area always stay in contact with your attorney so that they can represent you to the absolute best of their ability”
“the biggest thing you as a client need to do is stay in touch with your attorney or your law firm”
“it honestly doesn't matter how many times you screw up how many things go wrong in the case as long as you have good communication with your attorney and they can work with you it's going to be 10 000 times easier to deal with any issues that may come up”
“now remember our job as criminal defense attorneys is to protect you no matter what”
“our goal is to make sure you as the client are protected but in order to do that we need to know you we need to have good contact with you and we need to be able to have that open line of communication”
