FEDERAL CRIMINAL DEFENSE
Facing Federal Criminal Charges
With all of its resources, the federal government enjoys an extremely high conviction rate. Annually, there are approximately 100,000 guilty pleas in the federal criminal system. Approximately 97% of federal criminal indictments are now resolved by a plea bargain and a guilty plea.
Mandatory federal sentencing guidelines also add to the risk of going to trial. Charges are often stacked to increase the potential sentence the defendant will face.
The federal criminal system encourages prosecutors to charge individuals with as many counts as possible to force the defendant to plead guilty to a lesser offense. This is one of many reasons that fewer and fewer people charged with crimes can exercise their constitutional right to a jury trial.
For all these reasons, selecting the right criminal defense lawyer when facing serious criminal charges is vital to your future.
