The Importance of Early Legal Intervention
The Importance of Early Legal Intervention
In many New Britain criminal cases, the outcome can be heavily influenced before the first court date. With early representation, we can:
● Evaluate the legality of your arrest
● Secure or challenge bond conditions
● Request preservation of surveillance footage
● Intervene with police, probation, or prosecutors on your behalf
● Help prevent harmful statements from being used against you
Waiting until after your arraignment to hire an attorney can limit your options. Early strategic
involvement is key.
