What Does It Take To Convict Someone Of A Crime?

It might look grim when you are being handcuffed and fingerprinted, but remember that an arrest is not a conviction, and the state must prove your guilt beyond a reasonable doubt to convict you of a crime.

That’s not always easy for a prosecutor to do. When Jerry Nicholson is your defense attorney, he will review the state’s evidence against you, look for a weakness or flaw in the state’s case, and exploit that weakness or flaw on your behalf.

Why Is It So Vital To Have A Good Defense Lawyer?

Of course, in some cases, the state’s evidence is conclusive, the defendant’s guilt is obvious to everyone, and a conviction is inevitable. In these instances, attorney Jerry Nicholson will work for leniency from the court and for the best possible sentencing arrangement.

Do not try to act as your own attorney. That may have been an option in the past, but in the 21st century, criminal law in California is exceedingly complicated and difficult to understand. You’ll need an experienced lawyer who can guide you successfully through the criminal justice process.
