Criminal Law

When you are accused of a crime you face the possibility of severe consequences and the damaging effects of a maligned name. While the criminally accused are presumed innocent until proven guilty and have several rights guaranteed them under the U.S Constitution, these rights may be overlooked if you are not aware of them. Therefore, it is vital that you contact a Phoenix criminal defense attorney when you learn of your charges to ensure that your rights are protected.

In addition to having an attorney that will protect your rights, you need an attorney with experience in criminal defense that knows the law well and will defend your innocence with skill. An accomplished defense attorney is essential, especially if you are facing severe criminal charges where your basic freedoms are at stake.

When your innocence in a criminal matter is called into question it is imperative that you seek the counsel of a criminal defense attorney. Police officers and prosecutors are not obligated to act in your best interest; therefore, it is important that you contact an attorney soon after you are aware of your charges. Our Phoenix criminal defense attorneys will fight for your rights and be the legal advocate you need. The criminal defense attorneys at Cates, Hanson, Sargeant & Rakestraw, PLC are dedicated to protecting your rights and defending you against the criminal charges that you face.
