Learn about your three main defense options from a drunk in public attorney in Laguna Beach CA

  1. Proving your case in court. If we feel we have a strong case then we may recommend taking your case to court. Because this is a misdemeanor charge, your case would be seen by a judge. We’d present our evidence and your side of the story. The judge would then rule on your guilt and any punishment as they see fit.
  2. Convincing the prosecution to significantly reduce the charges. If there is a lot of evidence that you committed the crime then we may work with the prosecution to aggressively negotiate the right plea deal for you. If you’re facing other criminal charges then we will work them into your deal. The goal here is to minimize the consequences to you as much as possible.
  3. Getting an informal deferred decision. If it’s your first offense and you’re willing to go to drug or alcohol counseling, or you’re willing to complete community service, then the judge may agree to an informal deferment. This involves you completing the counseling or community service as agreed upon and having the charges dismissed.
