Do I Need A Lawyer?

Clearwater Criminal Defense Attorney

If you have been arrested and charged with a crime, you may be thinking, "Do I need a lawyer?" Another question that you need to be asking yourself is, "What is truly at risk in my case?" If you have an unpaid parking ticket, you don't need a lawyer. If your freedom, financial standing, family, reputation, future, and your ability to live the life you desire are important to you, you need a lawyer -- one with a history of successfully defending criminal charges in court.

It is vital that you have an attorney representing you from the outset of your criminal case. A Clearwater criminal defense attorney from The Law Office of Timothy Hessinger knows exactly how to defend your case to maximize the opportunity for a favorable outcome. With 20 years of experience in the courtroom, arguing before juries, in front of judges, and negotiating resolutions with prosecutors, Attorney Hessinger and our team are fully committed to doing whatever it takes to protect your legal rights and will fight to keep you out of jail or prison.

Protect Your Rights

Did you know that there are negotiations that your criminal defense attorney could do with the prosecution that could impact your case before it is even filed? These negotiations may result in the State agreeing to charge you with a less serious crime, or dropping the case altogether. Please contact one of our attorneys to set up a free consultation to evaluate the State's case against you and discuss potential strategies to obtain the best possible result in your criminal matter.
