Criminal Investigations
Are You Facing a Criminal Investigation? Hire an Experienced New Jersey Defense Attorney to Protect You
When you are facing a criminal investigation in New Jersey, asserting a proactive defense is critical. At this stage, you still have the opportunity to avoid an arrest and indictment—if you take the right approach. But criminal investigations can also be very dangerous. If you aren’t careful, you could face charges unnecessarily, and this could lead to the inherent uncertainty of defending yourself at trial.
As a result, if you are facing a criminal investigation, you need experienced legal representation. A New Jersey criminal lawyer at Helmer, Conley & Kasselman, P.A. can deal with the police and prosecutors on your behalf and work to steer your investigation toward a favorable outcome. Our criminal lawyers have centuries of combined experience handling high-stakes cases, and we can use this experience to help protect you by all means available.
What You Need to Know if You Are Facing a Criminal Investigation in New Jersey
Are you facing a criminal investigation in New Jersey? If so, it is critical that you start making informed decisions immediately. Here are some key facts you need to know:
1. The Police Already Have Evidence Against You
By the time you find out that you are facing a criminal investigation, the police almost certainly already have evidence against you. As a result, you need to be very careful about everything you say and do. Not only must you be careful to avoid admitting facts that could lead to charges, but you also need to avoid misleading the police—which could lead to charges as well.
2. Criminal Investigations Can Move Quickly
While some criminal investigations take time, some move very quickly. If you don’t execute a proactive defense, you could soon find yourself in custody and facing a grand jury indictment.
3. There Are Ways to Resolve Criminal Investigations Without Charges
While facing an indictment is a very real possibility, there are also ways to resolve criminal investigations without charges. This avoids the inherent uncertainty of trial—and it allows you to move on with your life as soon as possible.
4. Avoiding Charges Requires a Proactive Defense Strategy
To avoid charges as a result of your criminal investigation, you will need to effectively execute a proactive defense strategy. This means that you will need to hire an experienced New Jersey defense attorney who can intervene in the investigation and begin steering it toward a positive result.
5. Facing Charges Can Expose You to Serious Consequences
Regardless of the allegations underlying the government’s investigation, facing charges will expose you to serious consequences. All criminal charges in New Jersey carry fines and incarceration, and a conviction will negatively impact your life in many other ways as well.
