Ways to Defend Yourself
Unfortunately, once these charges are brought against you, the clock starts ticking for you to build a defense. It is never wise to try and represent yourself in these matters. Prosecutors have experience illustrating the accused as dangerous criminals who need to repay society through incarceration. At Hester Law Group, we have built a reputation for outstanding defense, with many of our lawyers having earned a 10.0 Superb Avvo Rating for their performance.
We may be able to seek outcomes other than prison, such as:
- Probation
- Reduced sentences
- Plea bargains
- Community service
- House arrest
- Inpatient therapy and treatment
Your best outcome is our highest priority. Our team has built a reputation for compassionate, thorough defense that gets results. We understand how important it is for you to tell your side of the story in a compelling way. With many professional relationships throughout the legal community, we understand how to work toward a favorable resolution to your case that can help you have the best chance at a hopeful, successful future.
