As a criminal defense lawyer, Patricia J.

Generally speaking, it is usually in a person’s best legal interests to consult with and be represented by an attorney as soon as possible so that the attorney can inform the person about their rights under the law and can begin exercising them as soon as possible.  Additionally, having a lawyer to represent you in the very beginning phases of a criminal investigation and case is important because the defense attorney may be able to present legal reasons to the prosecutor why the prosecutor should choose not to even file charges or to file less serious charges.  

Hiring a criminal defense attorney as soon as possible is also usually beneficial to a person who has been charged with a crime because the lawyer can get completely familiarized with the specific facts and circumstances of a person’s case.  Often times it is the defense attorney’s knowledge about the facts of the client’s case that can make the difference in how a bond hearing turns out, whether a bond is set at all, how much the bond is, and what the conditions of the bond are.  Attorney Patricia Jones can be hired to prepare a motion for bond and to represent a person accused of a crime at their bond hearing.
