Our Process
STEP
Schedule Your Free Consultation
Schedule a time to discuss your current situation directly with Mike G. He will listen to your unique situation, determine how he can help you, and offer legal recommendations based upon the information you have provided. If you decide to hire Mike G Law, we will obtain some basic information and get to work on your defense!
STEP
Pre-filing Intervention
Not every police investigation or arrest results in formal charges filed by the State Attorney’s Office. Hiring an attorney before formal charges are filed can be crucial in obtaining a favorable outcome. Attorney involvement at this point in the criminal process can be an opportunity to potentially prevent prosecution and more importantly, avoid the impact that prosecution will have on your entire life.
STEP
Plan Your Defense
If formal charges are filed, the next step in the process is for us to gather all discovery from the State Attorney’s Office. This may include but is not limited to: police reports, lab reports, witness statements, and any videos associated with the allegations against you. Once this information is received, a copy will be sent to you for your review and response. Then, if needed, we will schedule a meeting for you to discuss this information with your attorney and plan the course of your defense.
STEP
Case Resolution
Depending on your case and exact situation, there are likely a variety of paths that can be taken. Mike G will discuss each of the options available to you such as charges dismissed (or Nolle Prosequi), pre-trial diversion program, reduced charges, plea negotiations, and/or taking your case to trial. Every case is unique, and the available options differ depending on each client’s specific circumstances.
