When you are accused of a crime in Los Angeles or Orange County, you need the best criminal defense lawyer you can find. Michael Khouri can represent anyone committed with a crime to the best of his ability. He can negotiate with prosecutors and can often arrange for reduced charges or lesser sentencing.
Los Angeles Criminal defense lawyers do much more than simply question witnesses in court. A good defense attorney like Michael Khouri will:
Formulate sentencing programs tailored to a client's specific needs, often helping defendants avoid future brushes with the justice system.
Provide defendants with a reality check, a knowledgeable, objective perspective on their situation and what is likely to happen should their cases go to trial. This perspective is vital for defendants trying to decide whether to accept a prosecutor's offered "plea bargain".
Be familiar with important legal rules because many criminal law rules are hidden away in court interpretations of federal and state constitutions.
Be familiar with local court customs and procedures that aren't written down anywhere (for example, a lawyer may know which prosecutor has the "real" authority to settle a case, and what kinds of arguments are likely to appeal to that prosecutor).
Understand the possible "hidden costs" of pleading guilty which a self-represented person might never think about.
Spend crucial time on your case.
Gather information from prosecution witnesses.
Hire and manage investigators, who may be able to believably impeach (contradict) prosecution witnesses who embellish or change their stories at trial.
A good criminal defense attorney like Mr. Khouri could be crucial to your case and your livelyhood.
