Why is it Important to Hire an Experienced Criminal Defense Attorney to Represent You?

One of the first questions people charged with a crime ask is if itโ€™s necessary to hire a criminal defense attorney. Even though an experienced criminal defense lawyer will be able to help you get the best possible outcome for your case, the cost of hiring a lawyer is often too intimidating.

If youโ€™ve been convicted of a crime in Philadelphia, Bucks County, or Montgomery County, our criminal defense and DUI attorneys can help. Hereโ€™s how:

The legal system is often confusing and extremely difficult to navigate on your own. Our criminal defense attorneys have collective decades of experience moving through the inner workings of the criminal justice system. 

They Can Save You Money

If youโ€™ve been charged with a crime, then chances are youโ€™re worried about losing your job, your home, and your livelihood. By hiring an experienced defense attorney to fight for the best possible outcome, they can help you keep your job, your professional license, and even help you avoid a lengthy court trial that will result in lost income.

Real Client Stories

“I was in an automobile accident in Philadelphia and I came to Kats Jamison and Associates.They were able to get me a quick recovery for the property damages to my car. They worked with my doctors to make sure I received the best medical care. All my medical bills were paid through the automobile insurance policies and my lawyers made sure it was all done properly. They explained to me the process of the settlement and litigation and once the offer was received it was communicated to me immediately. I was extremely happy with the result of my case.”

Automobile Accident Injury Client
“I was involved in a motor vehicle accident and wasn’t able to do a lot and had to stop working. From the start Marina set up an appointment for me to see a neurologist when no one was willing to see me. When I needed help or had questions she and Barb were always there to answer mine and my moms questions, to help fill out paperwork, and to get me the benefits I needed. Everyone there was extremely helpful and nice. They were patient and attentive to all of my needs and looked out for my best interests until the end. I’m glad to have met them and thankful to them.”
