Pre-Charge Representation
Pre-charge representation is professional legal representation from a criminal defense attorney before criminal charges are filed against you. By conducting a pre-charge investigation, a defense attorney may be able to help you avoid an arrest and charges being filed against you.
Benefits of Pre-Charge Representation
Pre-charge representation ensures there is a legal defense team working on your behalf. Often times there is a delay between a criminal investigation and a prosecutor filing charges. This delay provides an opportunity for your criminal defense attorney to work on your defense.
Examples of pre-charge benefits:
Gather evidence for your defense
Answer questions from law enforcement and investigators on your behalf
Negotiate terms of a custody release
Negotiate terms of a reduction of charges
Negotiate dismissal of charges
Facilitate a self-surrender
If you’re being charged with a criminal offense, securing pre-charge representation is key to getting a legal defense team working on your behalf. Contact the Tyler Allen Law firm at (602) 456-0545.
