Criminal Defense Law

Criminal Defense Law is the area of legal practice that focuses on defending individuals accused of crimes. It involves protecting the rights of the accused throughout the legal process, ensuring they receive a fair trial. Defense attorneys gather evidence, investigate the case, and may negotiate plea deals or represent clients in court. The goal is to challenge the prosecution's evidence, argue for lesser charges or reduced sentences, and, if necessary, seek an acquittal or favorable outcome. Key principles include the presumption of innocence and the right to legal representation.
