Criminal Defense Attorneys Handling Municipal Court Cases
Everyone makes mistakes. Sometimes, those mistakes lead to a criminal charge and an order to appear in front of a judge in municipal court. Your first thought may be to go it alone and accept the penalties as they come, but we at Agricola Law, LLC, encourage you to take a different approach. We represent members of our community in Opelika in municipal court cases, standing up for their rights while advocating for fair and reasonable outcomes.
Is Legal Representation Necessary In Municipal Court Cases?
Yes. Even though municipal court cases generally involve comparatively minor offenses to those handled in higher courts, you should always have legal representation when appearing in front of a judge.
Without an attorney, your rights are vulnerable to being violated. You could suffer harsher penalties than you would if you had a lawyer. When a legal professional looks after your best interests and advocates for fair treatment, you don’t have to wonder if your case could have had a better outcome.
