It may not be the initial thing on your mind when you hire a criminal attorney, but if and when it comes down to it, have you hired the right person to enter a plea bargain? A plea bargain is an agreement between a defendant and a prosecutor, in which the defendant agrees to plead guilty or no contest in order to reduce the overall charges.
It’s a simple fact that as criminal courts become ever more crowded, prosecutors and judges alike feel increased pressure to move cases quickly through the system. When deciding on the right criminal defense attorney in Northeast Ohio, would you like to hire someone with very little experience or someone who has worked on “both sides of the aisle.”
Plea bargaining is a delicate issue, and if you can find someone who has worked for the government at one time and now is one of the staunchest defenders of the accused in Summit and Portage Counties take a closer look. That man may well be Akron criminal defense attorney Jon Sinn. Many times the only sin you may have committed is not calling Jon at (330) 431-0160.
