So what is the role of a criminal defense attorney? He or she will hire investigators and check the truth of the case to verify if the accused is really guilty of the crime. If the crime has been committed, he will formulate sentencing programs tailored to a client's specific needs, often helping defendants avoid future brushes with the criminal justice system. But first and foremost, he is the only person who can provide the accused with a knowledgeable and objective perspective on the situation and what is likely to happen should the case go to trial.
