Criminal Defense Attorney Napa County

Aggressively Fighting Your Charge

If you've been charged with a crime, you might be wondering whether you need a Napa County criminal defense lawyer to help handle your case. Although you do have the right to represent yourself, there are several reasons why having skilled legal representation on your side is recommended. One reason is that a lawyer has the experience and knowledge to guide you through the legal process. The criminal justice system is complex, and if you try to navigate it on your own, you run the risk of pursuing a course of action that adversely impacts your case's outcome. A criminal defense lawyer understands how the local courts work and will help you make informed decisions about how to proceed.

Another reason to have a Napa County criminal defense attorney deliver the counsel you need is that they can more effectively seek a favorable outcome on your behalf. After carefully reviewing your case, they may identify weaknesses in proof or violations of your rights that can affect the State's case against you. In some cases, this can result in charges being reduced or even dismissed, resulting in less severe penalties or no punishment at all.

Napa County Juvenile Delinquency Lawyer

Although juvenile cases proceed similarly to those heard in adult court – the minor must go through a legal process to determine whether or not the allegations against them are true – the nuances of the proceedings and the potential outcomes are markedly different. Thus, if your child has been accused of a crime, it's essential to have a lawyer on your side who understands the juvenile court system.

In addition to handling adult criminal matters, our team at The Law Offices of Johnson & Johnson also takes on juvenile delinquency cases. We recognize that these are emotionally charged issues that can have a profound impact on your life and your child's. That is why we provide skilled guidance from beginning to end. Our Napa County juvenile delinquency lawyers will work tirelessly to protect your child's rights and future.

For the legal counsel you and your child need, call us at (925) 900-5330. We offer a consultation to discuss your case.

At The Law Offices of Johnson & Johnson, we understand the seriousness of a juvenile dependency case. The allegations of abuse or neglect made against you can upend your family structure and have life-altering consequences.
