COLORADO SPRINGS CRIMINAL DEFENSE LAWYERS

Kanthaka Group’s Colorado Springs Criminal Defense Lawyers Provide Zealous Representation When Your Rights Are at Risk

It might start with a summons or being physically placed in the custody of law enforcement agents; but, you have been arrested. The difference is that with a summons, the Court directs you to appear at a particular place and time to answer the charges made against you – it’s a non-custodial arrest. When you receive a summons, you are arrested; you are subject to the control of the Courts. You are charged with a crime and face potential jail time as well as a criminal conviction. Just because you have received a summons, doesn’t mean you are in less jeopardy than someone that is physically arrested.

How Will A Colorado Springs Criminal Defense Lawyer Be Able to Help You?

Criminal defense lawyers are responsible for defending someone accused of a criminal offense. We are required to zealously represent our clients in the criminal process to ensure they receive the best result possible.

Our Colorado Springs criminal lawyers have worked with several clients throughout their criminal law needs. We will be able to guide you through your situation. Our legal team will serve as your guide, protector, and advocate.

Our Colorado Springs legal team is more than willing to take your case to trial. Along with going to trial, our criminal defense lawyers will examine witnesses, help formulate a plea (if appropriate), analyze the prosecutor’s case, assess the potential sentences; such as the likelihood of a particular judge awarding such a sentence, review search and seizure procedures, question witnesses, and gather evidence. Defense counsel can also advise on the potential consequences of a plea, conviction, or criminal record.

Colorado Springs defense criminal lawyers also provide more personal and individualized services by informing the defendant about the possible outcomes of their legal situation. Our criminal lawyers also help our clients deal with the frustrations and fears resulting from being thrown into the criminal justice system. Finally, if a trial is not appropriate, our legal team is well-versed in effectively negotiating plea agreements. The plea agreement negotiated may include reduced charges or reduced sentences. As a result of several factors, including political and public pressure, overcrowded jails, and overloaded court calendars, deal-making has grown significantly in importance and has become an essential element in unclogging the criminal justice system.  Our criminal defense lawyers have the knowledge and experience to negotiate efficiently on our client’s behalf to get results that work in their best interests.

What Should You Do If You Are Arrested near Colorado Springs?

Whether you received a summons or were physically arrested, this is the time to remember you have the right to remain silent and to use it. The only acceptable response to law enforcement is – “I wish to remain silent and would like to contact my lawyer, please.” So many clients have felt they can explain their way out of an arrest or a summons – you can’t. Any statement you make may and likely will be used against you. Call us as soon as possible and let us handle speaking with law enforcement and the District Attorney’s office.
