Santa Cruz and Monterey Criminal Defense Lawyer
Criminal & DUI Defense Attorney, John R. Coniglio - Tirelessly Pursues Justice for His Clients.

All too often, innocent people go to prison and good people receive harsher punishments for the crimes they have committed. Your freedom is important and finding a competent and experienced lawyer to defend that freedom is crucial.
You may feel like you don't have the time to go around asking for meetings with different criminal defense attorneys, but you cannot afford not to.

The following list depict questions to ask before you hire a criminal defense attorney. These questions will help to give you an idea of the lawyer before you hire him or her:

1. How long have you practice law?
2. Do you regularly personally appear in the court where the case is pending?
3. What kind of experience do you have?
4. Have you faced charges like mine in the past and what is your track record?
5. How many jury trials have you done?
6. Will you come to court yourself or will you send someone else?
7. What is your strategy for my case?
