Defense team

A defense team refers to a group of legal professionals, including lawyers and support staff, who work together to represent a person or organization accused of a crime or facing legal accusations. Their primary role is to protect the rights of the defendant, gather evidence, build a case, and present a strong defense in court. This often involves developing strategies, interviewing witnesses, and negotiating pleas. The defense team aims to ensure a fair trial and advocate for the best possible outcome for their client, operating under the principle that everyone is innocent until proven guilty.
