Investigate the Case
Apart from asking the defendants the necessary
questions about the case, the defense attorney
begins with the investigation to find out the
possible places through which the defendant can
get acquittal. One of the first things to do for
investigating the case is to ask the police about
their procedures and communicating with the
witnesses who provide a lot of information about
the case. With this information the attorney can
create a strong defense for the case.
The criminal defense lawyers have the right to
review the case of the prosecution before the
judge or the jury hears it. While reviewing the
case of the prosecution, the lawyer can find the
loopholes and evidence for cancelling the case of
the prosecution.

defense lawyer must study the case deeply to
understand and test the case independently. Apart
from this, the evidence is also to be examined to
determine whether more legal theories work
against the conviction of the defendant.

Help During Pre-trial
The criminal defense attorney has a major role to

justice and the defendants often choose a lawyer
before the initiation of the trial or when they
are not even charged with the crime. They can
also persuade the court to drop the charges
against the defendant when there is lack of
evidence or the procedure is not proper.

case that includes proper analysis of the case
and figuring out its weaknesses and the
strengths. Besides this, they can also discuss
various aspects during the plea bargain and

intentionally biased towards the case.
