Freedom is the greatest gift we are given by our creator, and the United States constitution.  However, your gift of freedom will be taken from you if you break the law in Alabama.  Having an experienced attorney on your side is the only defense you have against the will of the State of Alabama.  You should always hire an attorney to defend you against the State.  Never go through an Alabama criminal trial on your own!

            Aside from taking a case to trial, many options exist for criminal defendants under the law.  Even without going to trial, an experienced attorney could negotiate a more favorable result in the case.  It is a fact that if you try to go through the case without an attorney, you don’t have as much of an opportunity to gain a favorable result.
