Facing misdemeanor or felony criminal charges is never easy, whether it’s a first offense, second offense, or more. As you grapple with what to do next, you may feel stressed, overwhelmed, and yes, guilty. While those feelings are normal, it’s a time to put your emotions aside and remember that you have rights—and that you need to protect them.
Many people let the stress get to them and roll over to “get it over with.” They immediately accept a plea bargain that’s woefully one-sided in favor of the state. Or they hastily accept a court-appointed attorney who is simply too overwhelmed to mount the most aggressive defense possible.
