What Does a Criminal Defense Lawyer Do?

For Robert Elmen, most days begin in court, where he meets with clients, prosecutors, and police officers before stepping into a courtroom to meet with a judge. When he gets back to the office, he returns client phone calls and emails, meets with new clients, and conducts research and prepares legal pleadings.

As a criminal defense lawyer, Robert knows the deck is often stacked against his clients. In most of the cases he takes on, there is evidence that led to his client’s arrest. But even in a seemingly clear-cut case, the police officer may have taken shortcuts, made mistakes, or been overzealous. Some cases demand nothing less than a Not Guilty verdict. Others are instances of overcharging that should be resolved through a reduction in charges or the severity of the penalties a client should face.

Whatever your situation, Attorney Elmen will protect your rights and ensure you are not wrongfully convicted of something you did not do. In the process of holding the prosecution to their burden of proof beyond a reasonable doubt, he will explain and protect your legal rights and work to obtain the best result he can in your unique circumstances.

How Can You Represent “Those People?”

Criminal defense lawyers are often asked how they can represent “those people.”

For Attorney Elmen, the answer is simple.

Most “criminals” are regular people who made a bad decision. “Those people” are husbands and wives, sons and daughters, teachers, doctors, government employees, and military veterans. They all deserve respect and to have their rights protected.
