Darren
DeUrso believes in keeping his clients educated so they know what is
happening with their case. Some of the most stressful times in the case can occur
simply because the accused doesn’t know what’s happening with their case. Their future, and perhaps the future of their family is at stake,
and they have a right to know. They have a right to have the charges
explained fully and in terms they understand.
Darren DeUrso knows that sometimes the facts of the
case are buried in the paperwork and knows how to uncover and detangle
the intricacies of the case. He can then explain it clearly to his clients and give them the information they need to make the best
possible decisions regarding their future and financial obligations.
If you think criminal charges are about to be filed against you, the
sooner you contact an attorney, the better off you’ll be. Even if the
charges never get filed, you can benefit from the council of a skilled
defense attorney.
When you’re looking for a compassionate,
hands-on attorney with an in-depth knowledge of the law, call Darren
DeUrso. Conveniently located just three blocks from the Westchester County Courthouse, the Law Offices of Darren DeUrso represents clients throughout White Plains, Yonkers, and Putnam, Rockland, Bronx, Manhattan and Queens Counties.
Criminal Law Attorneys vs. Public Defenders
Your rights guarantee you representation. If you can't afford to hire your own attorney, one will be provided by the state. You will be offered, depending on your income, a free attorney or an attorney at a reduced rate.
The lawyers provided by the state are called public defenders and are assigned to your case based on their availability. While it may be reasonable to put your fate in the hands of a public defender for a minor charge, if you are arrested or being investigated for a felony, you need the best defense possible. Your freedom may depend upon it. For a serious charge, one where your freedom may actually be threatened, you need to hire an attorney who specializes in your type of case. You need to find a lawyer with practical experience and a proven track record. An experienced criminal law attorney is going to provide you with focused, creative representation using the best possible strategy.
One of the problems with an assigned attorney is you’re not able to do the research you need to help in a serious matter. While most public defenders are good attorneys, some are not. Many are over-worked who simply want to plead out your case to save their time and the state’s money. The case load they carry is unreal, especially for densely populated areas like Westchester County. It is reasonable to presume they are knowledgeable and ethical. But would you bet your freedom on it?
When you have the ability to do the research, you’ll put your case in the hands of a competent attorney who has the background to bring your case to a satisfactory conclusion. Darren DeUrso is that attorney. Do the research. Then call The Law Offices of Darren DeUrso.
