June 6, 2010 - In a situation where a criminal lawyer is needed, there are several key issues to consider before you choose to select your attorney. David Joffe, a Florida based criminal lawyer urges those in need of a criminal attorney to consider these questions.

Does the lawyer understand you? Before you choose a criminal attorney, it is in the best interest of you and your family to make sure the person who will represent you throughout this situation is someone who understands you, your case, and is willing to work with you. If you have a consultation with a lawyer who seems to only view you as another number, it may be time to look for someone else.

Does the lawyer have the proper credentials? The mere fact that a criminal attorney has passed the bar exam does not necessarily mean that they are prepared and able to represent you and your case. Look for a criminal lawyer who is able to practice in federal courts and tax courts. And, depending on the scope of your case, you may require an attorney who is allowed to practice before the Supreme Court.

Finally, does this criminal lawyer get results? Testimonials from a criminal attorney's former cases cannot accurately determine the outcome of your own particular case, but it's important to note whether or not the criminal lawyer you are considering has any experience working with cases similar to your own. The more experience a criminal lawyer has in specific areas of practice such as tax cases, white collar crimes, or money laundering, the better equipped they will be to handle your case.

Selecting the right criminal lawyer can have a lasting impact on your future, so take the time to research your attorney in order to make the best decision.
